Evening wildlife safari
- Have the chance to see wildlife
- Enjoy Banff's National Park
- Learn about how the park protects the animals
As the sun sets behind the craggy peaks, the wildlife of Banff National Park become more active in the cool hours before dark. On 95% of the tours wildlife is spotted, so this is your best chance to get up close with some of Banff’s wildest residents. Your guide will lead a paved road bus tour to the hotspots where you are most likely to see Rocky Mountain creatures. You might spot an elk sauntering across a clearing and sometimes even a grizzly bear snuffling through a berry bush. You’ll also learn about how the park protects these animals and their natural habitat from many threats to the ecosystem.
