Yes, this is a real place

Ahhhhhhhhh. Banff and Lake Louise. It really is magical here, isn't it? Just look at it. Yeah, we know. But here's the thing: It is so sublime that it might be hard to believe if you haven't seen it with your own two eyes. 

 

As pretty as the pictures

 

We get this a lot - yes, this place really is as amazing as the pictures. A place with mountains so tall it hurts your neck to look up at them. A place where rocking ski boots until last call is acceptable. A place where locals can probably out ski and party you but, hey, they won’t brag – they'll just tell you where to get the freshest lines at first chair. 

 

So, what are you waiting for?  

 

This year it’s time to plan a BIG trip. Like adventure-of-lifetime kind of material. The kind of trip that makes you take up scrapbooking. Yes, scrapbooking. You’ll make memories that you’ll want to show off and talk about forever.  

 

Fairy dust and fall lines are just a phone call away 

 

If you book early, you can save up to 40% on ski and stay packages. Plus, booking early means kids can ski and rent for free, which means more money pennies for the poutine piggy bank. 

 

Imagine one phone call that gets your rentals, accommodation, and lift tickets sorted months in advance. Give our Vacation Specialists a shout on 1-844-754-2443 and see just how easy it is to book a ski vacation in Banff and Lake Louise.
