Discover Details:
West Edmonton Shopping Center
Royal Tyrrellovsky
Check the weather before going, as some outdoor exhibits might not be as enjoyable in the rain. I got caught in a drizzle, and it wasn’t fun!
Banff Springs Hotel
Heritage Park Historical Village
Check out the daily schedule for activities as soon as you arrive. Some of the demonstrations and shows only happen once, and you won’t want to miss them
Don’t miss the bakery! The fresh baked goods are a must-try and pretty affordable. Perfect for a snack while walking around.
I suggest wearing comfy shoes. You’ll be doing a lot of walking, and the cobblestone paths can be tough on your feet.
Banff Visitor Centre
If you're looking to save some cash, grab the map and suggested itineraries from the visitor center instead of buying pricey guidebooks. Totally worth it.
Royal Alberta Museum
My advice is to bring your own snacks. The cafe is a bit pricey and the food wasn't all that spectacular. You'll save some cash and have more energy to explore.
Banff Pedestrian Bridge
My advice is to combine your visit to the bridge with a short hike nearby. The views from the trails are breathtaking and really enhance the whole experience.
if you're on a budget, grab some snacks at a nearby grocery store before heading to the bridge instead of dining at the more expensive places nearby. it saves you cash!
Alberta Legislature Building
I recommend checking out the free guided tours; they’re super informative and run every hour, but get there 15 minutes early to grab a spot since they can fill up fast!
Village of Ukrainian Cultural Heritage
Walter Dale Bridge
I suggest parking a bit further away and taking a nice stroll to the bridge; the views along the riverbank are stunning and make for great photos!
If you're into photography, I recommend visiting at sunset. The colors against the bridge look incredible and you avoid the midday crowds.
