Is it nice to travel during christmas time?? Hows the weather and should i have to keep winter jacket with me?

[@menarchemum]

Thank you! This is awesome!

[@TuanNguyen-bo4qe]

What time were you at to catch the train at Morant’s Curve?

[@alankirkby465]

Im English, I live in England, UK. I once travelled from Banff to Jasper, by bus long time ago ( Sept,1978 ) Few days made return trip. At that time I wasn't aware I was on last bus trip from Jasper to Banff ( until bus driver informed me ) It appears at that time bus service closes down ( Winter ) until April. Sorry for being boringly nostalgic. Peace to all.

Great trip, thanks for the terrific suggestions especially the audio guide. Thank you

[@davidpharo]

Thanks so much for this fantastic guide. About to head out on this journey and feel so much more excited and prepared! 🙏🏻

[@mikebikercanada]

Thanks so much 🙏 We’re heading down from Ottawa visiting Banff next week and doing the drive to Jasper. I’ve watched this video and all your others on Banff & Jasper and they are super informative. I’ll be downloading the GuideAlong App for sure. That sounds amazing. Thanks putting these great videos out there. Some of the best I’ve seen. Fantastic editing. I saw one of your videos has 1M Views. Crazy! From one creator to another … well done!! All the best. Mike

[@alysmalls]

Thanks so much Mike! Enjoy your trip!! Glad the videos have helped 😊

[@juanitaj.]

Thank you so much for such an informative video with the PDF (and an entertaining video without feeling informative overload). Been binge watching your Banff / Jasper videos as research for our trip there this September/October so very glad the algorithm recommended your channel 💖

[@alysmalls]

Glad they've been helpful! Sept/Oct is a beautiful time to go 🙂

[@brentstraddle1462]

This looks like from a dream or a movie, wow!

[@EricTremblayAdventures]

Awesome that you enjoyed the road side spots in the Canadian Rockies! For those who want to explore these areas away from the road, you will likely spend a lifetime, well I’ve been at it for 4 years now and still continue to explore every week. Reach out if you return and want to see some even more amazing places! 😊

[@LiveInnerCity]

awesome vid! love your narration as always 😎

[@noreenhallett7366]

It’s a wonderful trip

[@janczekaj2077]

Thank you very much for including the guide I was trying to figure out how to spell some of the names of these places while I was taking my notes. Pausing videos numerous times is never fun!

[@gilbert2303]

Aly loves her wine! lol Another great video Aly

[@mrsadin143]

Amazing trip. Thanks for sharing

[@virtualstockholm]

Really nice and interesting video! Thank you for sharing 🌸🌸🌸

[@MrArvinda]

Aly you are the best and I would say expert in Banff and Jasper areas😊

[@ding1306]

Awesome! Thank you🤗

[@michellec2899]

Absolutely Gorgeous!!!!! ,Thank you, I’m hoping to take my husband on the route from Edmonton,Jasper to Banff ,as he is not able to drive any more. We’ve lived here forever,& I’ve always been the passenger. I’m thinking the beginning of June would work for us, probably stay in Hinton, (as hotels are cheaper ,& we are seniors on a budget), stay in Canmore ,then head to Calgary to see our grandkids, then back to Edmonton. Thank you for this lovely tour, isn’t it grand to have this in our own back yard. Cuddles from Edmonton M&B&Z🌺🌺 🇬🇧🇨🇦🐾🐾🐾

[@markcummings3146]

Looks amazing!

[@briangriffin5524]

This trip is on my bucket list. 😅

[@AnnaC-b6m]

What a wonderful trip. We will want to duplicate this in the near future. We would be traveling with my service dog. Do you have recommendations regarding traveling with a dog?

[@Vampiresystem-l2d]

Yes pleasesendmeyourdetails

[@donmurray6362]

Nice video. Sadly. Jasper area and town was decimated by wildfires in August.

[@janegates1618]

What dates did you travel on and in your opinion how bad was the smoke haze to really take in the beauty of the Rockies with photo's?

[@pattons3rd429]

What you guys with your dog while taking on these tours?

[@bartveen6038]

thanks nice video

[@Expeditoon]

Thank you sooo much😭😭😭

[@postaldaytrader]

We are planning to go to Columbia Icefield Tour on the way from Banff to Jasper, but we are bringing our dog. Since Columbia Icefield Tour doesn't allow dogs, do you know if they have a dog sitting service that we can use during the tour?

[@alysmalls]

I'm not sure, you would have to call the center

[@vaultecboy746]

Do you think is worth it to drive from lake Moraine and stop on the ice field skywalk and then go back to Calgary stopping by on all the spots? Basically doing backwards

[@alysmalls]

If you start at sunrise at Moraine Lake than yes!!

[@ilhamiturgut9349]

I have 3 days. I can't decide exactly what plan to make. You have seen both jasper and baff. Which places would you recommend me to see for 3 days?

[@midnitetravler1874]

can you hike it not on the road side? like a side trail or something?

[@terkuenma7386]

When is this video taken ?
