What a great tour!!!! My husband and I had never been on E-bikes before, and we were a little nervous, but we absolutely looooved it!!!!! Leah, our guide, was delightful...truly a gem of a person!!!!! She was very knowledgeable, kind, funny+pro!!!!! The trip was full of gorgeous views, and it was easy to bike along the parkway. The Johnston Canyon hike was lots of fun and well worth it 👍👍👍👍

This was my favorite thing we did! Our guide, Jennifer, was excellent and made sure we were together as a group on the bikes. We had a training time to practice with the bikes. My husband and I are both 71 and even though it was challenging for us, it was great fun. We saw a bear in the side of the road! The hike to Johnston Canyon waterfalls was beautiful.

We booked the eBike tour and hike to Johnson Canyon. The eBikes were fun and made the ride easy. Scott was our friendly and informative guide and he made sure we had a great time.
You bike from Banff to Johnson Canyon and then hike up to the first set of falls in the Canyon. A shuttle brings you back to their shop in Banff.
We made frequent stops at overlooks along the way and at one picnic area for a potty stop. We did have a bit of excitement on our trip as we had to detour to the 'high' road when a large black bear was making his way up the 'low' road towards us. Scott stopped and let us all see the bear and then hurried us along so the bear could continue on his way and not have to detour around us. He showed his respect for wildlife. I'm sure this doesn't happen all the time but it made for a great memory for us!
A fun time and even though you are on eBikes you actually do get some exercise. These aren't throttle bikes but rather pedal assist bikes. Still pretty easy though and I recommend trying out one of their trips.

This was an amazing tour. I loved the combination of a hike and bike. Johnston Canyon was beautiful as well as the scenery on the bike ride portion. We stopped a few times on each for photos. Guides were great and equipment was good as well. I highly recommend this tour.
