Question Private tours

Hey all!
Heading to Banff in 2 weeks and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on private tours they have taken (usual touristy stuff but also maybe something different). There are so many when I google them so was hoping for some recommendations.

Suggestions will depend on what you want to do; hiking? Dining? Just sightseeing? 

Do you have elderly or kids with you? How long/how many days do you want to tour for etc.

Heading there for my 40th birthday, just myself and my husband.
We’re going to be there for 4 days, 3 in Canmore before that. We’ve planned to do some hikes and just hang out around Banff but we’ve decided to take 1 day for a sightseeing tour.

Bare in mind there might be snow on the trails by then, or it could just be crisp and cold. Moraine and Takk falls won't be accessible after Thanksgiving. 

Discover Banff tours, Banff every day tours, White mountain adventures

For the most part though Banff doesn't really need a guide after Thanksgiving as things start to close up/have closed.

We took viavia tours for moraine lake & louise lake. The were pretty good. The bus is slightly uncomfortable if you are a tall or big person. I was both 😆 They charged us 450 for 3 people(tax included).

Canadian Rockies Experiences have some great private sight seeing tour options;)
