Murray Morgan and some of his staff.

During the summer season we book tours throughout Jasper National Park which are especially designed and operated by ourselves as well as specialty tours run by others.

We also run a year-round reservation service for Jasper's hotels, bungalows and home accommodation/bed and breakfasts.

All our staff are Certified Park Interpretive Guides, accredited in First Aid.

We limit the numbers on our tours to provide you with a personalized tour and to minimize our impact on the environment of Jasper National Park.

Contents of tours may vary due to season, weather and road conditions. Children half price age 6 to 14, under 6 no charge. Most of the tours require a minimum of 3 persons to have the tours to run. The " Steel Ride " tour requires minimum of 4. All rates subject to change without notice.

Inquire about:

  • Charter Tours to:
    — Banff and Return the same day
    — Maligne Canyon
    — Local Points of Interest
  • Group Rates - STEP-ON Guiding Service

Keeping in mind that Jasper National Park is located in the Canadian Rockies, our summer season is "nature" controlled. Access to areas is restricted by opening dates and closures due to weather and various Park restrictions beyond our control.

Our summer season early tours begin in late April and are generally fully operational by mid June. The closures begin towards the end of September, but we continue on until the snow flies and we start the winter programs.

There is always something to do in Jasper.
