Johnston canyon was amazing, and so so beautiful. Definitely worth it. However our guide was way too fast. He told us it wasnt a photo tour so basically couldnt stop for photos unless he stopped. He was running ahead and leaving the group at all times, people were then wary of the speed and almost fell numerous times to try and keep up. I asked about the pace, and he said he was keeping it the same. It was difficult to fully enjoy the experience as we were so rushed.
Fantastic Trip

We had an incredible time on the Johnston Canyon Ice Walk! Our guide, Rae, was absolutely amazing—so sweet, knowledgeable, and patient. She answered all our questions and made the experience even more enjoyable. The scenery was breathtaking, and the trail itself was well-maintained. The ice formations and frozen waterfalls were stunning, and the whole experience felt magical. If you’re visiting Banff in the winter, this tour is a must-do! Highly recommend, especially if you get Rae as your guide!
Great guided hike.
