It was a really good tour that had some local history with stories of ghosts and haunting. Nothing too scary.

We are on the tour and it is 100% not worth $32. I would pay $5.00. There is nothing scary or ghost info the stories are about history. Very poor tour.

Sadly unable to attend
Aug 2020
Booked at start of year as part of holiday to Canada from UK.
Covid restrictions meant flight was cancelled after being told we were unlikely to be allowed into Canada.
All other pre-booked trips either cancelled (and refunded) or postponed to next year, however no online contact details available for this company to request similar, and unable to request via Trip Adviser.
Was hoping to hear from the company when we failed to confirm attendance 24 hours before but nothing that a request for a review.
We would still love to come when we are eventually able to visit Canada, if our tickets could be held until then?

Tonight we attended the tour conducted by Mike. The stories were interesting and Mike did a great job telling them. Both historical and paranormal stories were shared. Would recommend this tour and be sure to dress for the weather as it’s entirely outdoors.

Banff Ghost Walk
Oct 2019 • Couples
We love history and spooky encounters of the past and decided to book on Banff Ghost walks. Our guide for the night was very friendly and the meeting point was at the Good Earth coffee shop. A great choice and central to the town. The walk itself was very enjoyable, despite the cold and the places we toured had some interesting stories told by our guide. We couldn’t help but feel however, that this tour isn’t quite developed enough. Our guide said several times they still trying to acquire stories from the locals. The price of $30 per person was a little steep we felt, for what you actually get. A cup of coffee included would have really made a lovely touch and we felt a $20 mark would have been fairer while this walk is still being developed.
Please note, our guide was very knowledgable and did a great job with the material he had.

Would love to see how this develops in a few months time.

A lovely walking tour of downtown Banff accompanied by incredible stories of Banff’s history and ghoulish past. Perfect for fall or any time of year really. We really enjoyed our time on the tour!

Yes, you go to Banff for the park - the mountains, the lakes, the wildlife... but trust me, add ghosts to your agenda. And plan this for early on in the trip.

We had a blast on our tour. The guide walked us (and one other couple) through the various neighborhoods of the town. We saw areas we would have missed in sticking to the strip for dinners. We walked through historic bungaloos, some of the first homes in the area; we walked by the river and down a portion of the park; we walked past the Indian Trading Post and the National Park Museum, past the Lodge (where we stayed - highly recommend) and back into downtown. It was a big square, but wow did we have a better sense of the town, community, history, and layout.... and yes, some seriously creepy ghost stories. Don't want to spoil the fun, but there are benign, helpful, and just haunting presences scattered throughout this town with a mixed history of first nations, railroad construction, coal mining, park preservation, and more. Ghosts in houses, hotels, in shops and by the river. Ghost stories with "happy" endings and some that will leave you with the willies. I shutter just thinking about the home (on moose street, I think)

Our tour guide came from Canmore for a this fabulous adventure... he told us of tours in Canmore as well, but we could not fit it in our schedule while visiting(but Canmore is fabulous and worth a look).

We had a blast and we can't recommend this enough for believers and for skeptics. Its worth the walk through town for the basic history alone... fantastic paranormal examples are extra.
