“Highly recommend this tour. Loved the whole experience, but the best parts were the beautiful horses, who are well behaved and healthy, the instruction (really great for a novice, which I am). The natural pool was closed for rough seas in the day we went, but it was still our favorite activity,”

3.Banff National Park: 1-Hour Bow River Horseback Ride

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 518 reviews · 1 hour · from $78Best value

Meet your horse at Banff Trail Riders’ red stables, learn basic riding skills, then follow the Bow River past Cave and Basin Hot Springs. Guides such as Sarah, Jade, Mandi, and Steph are praised for clear help and local stories. Closed-toe shoes, long pants, and a 30-minute early arrival are required.

“Excellent hack along the Bow River. Sarah was very entertaining and had a lot of information to give us on the area. She has a love for horses and excellent manner. A must do activity for the beautiful scenery on very well trained horses as we had a helicopter hovering very low overheard and every horse did not take any notice.”
