Pickup can start from Calgary, Banff or Canmore, then the route north includes lakes, waterfalls and glacier viewpoints before an independent evening in Jasper. 📋 Key Details Duration: 2 days, 1 night in Jasper (hotel not included) Group Size: 1 to 14 guests Minimum Age: All ages with a paying adult Pickup: Calgary, Banff or Canmore area Tickets: Jasper SkyTram, Maligne cruise and Icefield adventures are separate 🗺️ What to Expect Day 1 is a northbound Icefields Parkway run: Bow Lake reflections, Peyto Lake lookout, rest at Saskatchewan River Crossing, Columbia Icefield viewpoints, then Sunwapta and Athabasca Falls before Jasper hotel check-in on your own reservation. Commentary covers geology, wildlife rules and where to eat in town that evening. Day 2 stays in Jasper for SkyTram base views, Pyramid Lake, Maligne Canyon paths and Maligne Lake lookouts, with lunch free time downtown. Tram and boat tickets are optional; canyon and lakeshore walks remain accessible without them. After Jasper sightseeing the guide drives south on the parkway again, adding photo stops when daylight and traffic allow before drop-off in Calgary, Banff or Canmore. Wildlife may appear but is never guaranteed, and each stage is summarised in the itinerary for quick reference. 📍 Location The route links Banff National Park and Jasper National Park along one of the highest scenic highways in Canada. Elevations and weather change quickly, so layers and waterproof footwear help at lakes and waterfall paths. Jasper town sits in the Athabasca River valley with easy access to restaurants after Day 1 driving. Return on Day 2 retraces parkway sections with optional photo stops when schedules allow. ✅ Prerequisites No technical hiking skills are required for the standard viewpoints and canyon walkways. Short uphill walks such as Peyto Lake lookout need basic mobility and comfort on stairs or gravel. Guests must arrange Jasper accommodation before travel and travel with valid ID. Infant seats are available on request when younger children join the private group. 🤝 Why Choose Us Private format means the pace follows your group instead of a fixed coach timetable. Experienced Rockies guides adjust for photo light, lunch breaks and weather without sacrificing the headline stops. Tour transport equipment is included for the journey while paid attractions stay transpar… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Two days of private guided transport Professional local driver-guide Pickup and drop-off in Calgary, Banff or Canmore area Icefields Parkway and Jasper sightseeing stops per itinerary Flexible photo and rest breaks when safe Vehicle equipment provided for the tour ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point if outside agreed pickup zones Hotel accommodation and meals in Jasper Jasper SkyTram, Maligne Lake cruise and Columbia Icefield adventure tickets Personal travel insurance Gratuities ### Kit list Overnight bag for Jasper hotel night Warm layers and waterproof jacket Comfortable walking shoes Photo ID Sun protection and reusable water bottle Hotel confirmation for Jasper check-in ## FAQs ### Do we book our own hotel? Yes. Jasper accommodation for the night between Day 1 and Day 2 is not included and must be booked in advance, especially in July and August. Your guide coordinates arrival timing but does not reserve rooms for you. Keep your confirmation handy and share hotel name if asked so pickup on Day 2 is efficient. ### Which tickets are extra? Jasper SkyTram, Maligne Lake boat cruises and paid Columbia Icefield experiences such as Ice Explorer rides are not included. You may purchase them on site if you want those upgrades. The base tour still covers transport and escorted access to free viewpoints and canyon paths listed in the itinerary. ### Where does pickup start? Private pickup is available from Calgary, Banff or Canmore when arranged at booking. Share your hotel or address so the guide plans Day 1 departure time and Day 2 return drop-off. Exact pickup windows depend on distance to the parkway and your Jasper hotel location. ### Is the tour truly private? Your group travels alone with a dedicated guide and vehicle rather than joining strangers on a shared coach. Capacity still respects the stated maximum guest count for safety and comfort. Only your party rides together across both days unless you invite additional guests within the limit. ### How strenuous is Day 1? Most Day 1 stops are roadside or short walks to viewpoints. Peyto Lake requires a brief uphill path that can feel brisk at altitude but remains manageable for average fitness. Frequent vehicle breaks and rest areas along the parkway help you pace the long driving day before Jasper check-in. ### What about wildlife? Elk, sheep, bears and other species may appear along the parkway. Your guide stops only where regulations and safety allow, keeping distance and avoiding feeding or approaching animals. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed and should be treated as a bonus rather than an expected checklist item. ### Can children join? Children and infants may travel with a paying adult when seats are requested ahead of time. The two-day format suits families who want shorter walks and more vehicle time than a single marathon day. Bring snacks, layers and entertainment for long scenic drives between major stops. ### What meals are included? Meals are not included. Day 1 includes rest stops where you can buy snacks; Jasper town offers dinner choices after check-in. Day 2 includes lunch free time in Jasper before the return drive. Many guests pack breakfast items for Day 2 if their hotel plan does not include morning food. ### What if roads close? Spring avalanches or winter storms can temporarily close sections of the Icefields Parkway. Guides reroute or adjust stops when officials publish closures, focusing on safe alternatives still inside the parks. When closures or severe weather make travel impossible, contact us as soon as you can so we can plan a new departure date with your group. ### How much luggage can we bring? Luggage stays in the vehicle between Day 1 and Day 2, so one medium suitcase or soft bag per person plus a daypack usually works well. Pack an overnight kit with toiletries and anything you need in Jasper that evening. Heavier bags are fine if your group fills only part of the vehicle, but tight seating is easier when everyone keeps bulky items compact for the long parkway legs. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/63e454e6-cb23-4637-8a26-28912f9d9baf-10-scaled-1.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 5 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
