Creator's Key Takeaways

We love the outdoors and hiking, and we love adventuring with our kids via travel trailer, rooftop tent, backpack, and cruise ship.

It can be a confusing and nerve-wracking process, but we're here to help.

We had the pleasure of traveling to Banff in 2025 and successfully booked the Parks Canada shuttle to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake for the dates and times that we originally wanted.

It was a frustrating process with mistakes, but we are here to share the details of how to book and what we learned to make planning and reserving the best it can possibly be for you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Make an online account with the Parks Canada reservation website before launch day.
✓Be sure to plan out your preferred date and time for your shuttle ahead of time, and have backup dates and times in mind.
✓Log into your account before 8:00 a.m. on launch day in mid-April or 2 days prior to your departure.
✓Use the list view rather than the map view for easier navigation.
✓Pay with a credit card with no foreign transaction fee if you're not a Canadian resident.
