I’ve ticked this off my bucket list last October and seeing all these familiar places covered in snow is so gorgeous! Immediately makes me want to go there again.
This was so cool to watch!!! I'm from Calgary, so hearing a traveller's perspective on something that I see everyday was very heart warming and reminded me to be grateful for where I live. Thank you for sharing this beautiful city and province 🥰

I smiled watching this entire video! I’ve lived in Alberta my entire life. Seeing how excited you were to visit all these places made my heart incredibly happy. I love Canmore Banff and Lake Louise more than you could ever know. I’m headed there in June! If you are ever able to visit in summer months I highly recommend the “tea house” hike in Lake Louise, it’s a decent incline but the views & experience are worth it. Plus then you can buy (cash only) tea, soup & cookies when you arrive at the top. Oh & also the building behind the head sculpture is called “The Bow” my uncle used to work there & was able to give me a tour, I felt like I was in NYC being up so high. Thanks for another great video!

Ah, memories! I love how you manage to make your travel videos concise without feeling rushed- you manage to fit so much (and such quality) into 10mins compared to so many other content creators! Always appreciate that you're quality over quantity 👍

its beautiful 😍 your travel vlogs are always the most incredible , thank you for sharing allison ❤
This is so cool! I’ve lived in alberta my whole life and always have loved going to the mountains. You picked an incredible place to stay in Banff. The views from the hot tub of the town are INCREDIBLE.
So much in just ten minutes, really appreciate your work
Such a gorgeous trip! I’ve only ever been out west in warmer months it was amazing to see it in the winter.
Welcome to Calgary and area! You have got to come back in the summer! You'll get a totally different experience!

Yay!! I’m so glad you loved it. I just got back home to Calgary after spending the weekend in Banff ❤️… I’m always so thankful and blown away by the mountains, they are truly beautiful!
I live in a small town 2 hours from Banff and seeing the mountains from a distance on a clear day never gets old!
Wow!! Allison!! Thank you for sharing again! Well… Banff Canada is one of my bucket list! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
calgary/banff/canmore are the most underrated travel destinations in the world
Absolutely draw dropping to watch all of that amazing scenery! As beautiful as it gets!
Loved this video! I’ve lived here my entire life and learned of some new places to go and things to do.
Also loved the beginning footage when you were driving down the 1a beside the big hill into Cochrane. One of the most beautiful views ever.
So excited for this! Headed to Banff this July.
Im an introvert and this year I decided to travel solo to places. I did my first solo trip past month and it was AMAZING! I’m So happy I found your channel at this moment because I’m an outdoor person who loves to take pics of the wild too! You are doing a great job❤
I live in Vancouver while my boyfriend lives in Calgary and so every time I visit, I always demand that he drives me to Banff/Canmore 😂 I never get tired of staring at the Rockies and seeing Moraine Lake. Hiking in the summer is AMAZING so next time you visit in the summer, I recommend Devils Thumb or Plain of Six Glaciers at Lake Louise for an easy (but long) hike
Beauty of nature
It's so true. The experience of being there is nothing compared to any image can capture. This is my home. You did a beautiful job. ❤️
Happy to have you here in Canada! Banff National Park is a true beauty. However if you keep driving north from it, there is Jasper National Park. And the moment you enter Jasper mountains double in size ;)
The drive from Calgary to Banff is iconic. Such glorious scenery and vistas for days, definitely worth the trip if you're coming to Alberta.
From Toronto and I went to Banff last Sept. Loved every moment! It is smart you rented a car. I didn’t but public transport was so smooth. Thank you for sharing this place with snow.
Thank you for sharing I really enjoyed the video so so so much
extremely beautiful landscape
Amazing. Very good.
I just love how you condense your trips into this wonderful videos!

Oh my gosh! Your trip was must have been magical. My hubby and I were there in October for the first snow. It was fantastic. No crowds, no hassles, and such beauty. Go to Maligne Lake and Canyon next trip. Oh, and Jasper. There's another gondola. It's not as fancy but still cool. 😊❤️
Awesome, beautiful ❤
I had such a happy smile on my face watching this! I grew up in Banff and now live outside Calgary. I pretty much just want to hear that people love it LOL. I also used to work in the building with Wonderland in front of it! Nice tour!!!!

I did what you did but in the summer! Even stayed at the Malcolm . Rented an ebike in Canmore which was great too. I also rented a cabin and spent a few days at a ranch horseback riding through the foothills. A car and my camera will travel! Thanks for a great post.
My back yard! I worked driving shuttle in Lake Louise one year. It was the best ever! I'm glad you enjoyed it! ❤️. I absolutely love the Calgary library.

I just came back 3 days ago from a 1 month solo Trip to the West Coast! Flew into Van and made my way East stopping along the way. Reached Banff and Canmore and it took my breath away! I loved Canmore and even think I'm going to move there. Fingers crossed 🤞🤞 seeing your video makes me realize how much I miss it already!

After your video of The trip to Alaska, this is one of my favorite videos. I am watching this one for the third time. And I don't know how many times I have watched the video of Alaska.

Always interesting to see our own country in the eyes of someone from abroad! We will cross Canada from Vancouver island to Montreal this winter and I take good note of what you have seen in the rockies. If you ever go to the prairies in the summer, I recommend you a surreal place in Saskatchewan: Kandahar! Yeah, who knew there was a Kandahar, Canada? It's a large lake but it's at the same level as the prairie itself. Because it's hard to differenciate the water from the fields it looks like a mirage. It feels very special to be on the shore of an inland "sea" surrounded by a sea of wheat. Thanks for your videos!
From Bangladesh here, Big fan of you.
