In Banff, enjoy a guided sightseeing tour and plenty of time on your own to discover Banff National Park. Ride the gondola up Sulphur Mountain for spectacular mountain views, canoe to the Vermillion Lakes, or explore the natural hot springs at the Cave & Basin. Wander around the historic Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel or shop the downtown area.
