What people love about Canada Tours in September
- 5-Day Canadian Rockies Adventure: Banff, Jasper & Yoho National Parks Tour
Well organised tour. Worthwhile optional excursions. Good hotels, transportation, drivers and guides.
- 7-Day Rockies Adventure: Discover 5 Iconic National Parks in Canada – Banff, Jasper, Yoho, Kootenay & Waterton
The Canadian Rockies tour of 5 national parks was amazing! I cannot even describe how beautiful this country really is. My favorite places include: Bow Lake, Columbia Icefield, Jasper, Maligne Lake, Peyto Lake, Lake Louise with an excellent Lunch, Moraine Lake, Yoho, Johnston Canyon, Banff Town and Aspen Hotel (the best), and Waterton Prince Wales Hotel. Some suggestions would be to always provide heathy breakfast, air conditioning in hotel. Calgary Tours guides were not always respectful to all tourists and the tour group was very large at times 50 people! Jesse was our best guide since he was friendly to all, informative, and had a great personality. A great asset to this tour company.
This was the best tour I've ever done. We saw absolutely beautiful scenery and so many sights were packed in to a relatively short amount of time, it was perfect. Mitch, our guide, is a wonderful, fun, genuine, humble and great person. 10/10. As well as being very experienced and knowledgeable, he also went out of his way to make sure everyone had an excellent and very fun experience. Very sad to say goodbye to our guide, amazing group and sublime scenes. Thank you.

What our customers ask about Canada Tours in September 2025
What makes September an ideal time to visit the Canadian Rockies?
The Canadian Rockies in September blend natural beauty with practical travel advantages. Temperatures stay moderate between 10-20°C in Banff and Jasper National Parks. Visitors can enjoy clear mountain views while avoiding peak summer crowds. Properties like the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel and Mount Royal Hotel serve as convenient bases for watching golden aspens and larches change color. Local wildlife becomes more visible as they gather food for winter. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The scenery was spectacular and September gave us perfect weather for hiking and photography with crystal clear views of the mountains and lakes."
What special events and festivals happen in Canada during September?
Western Canada lights up with cultural events in September. Visitors can catch screenings at the Banff International Film Festival or join locals at Melissa's Road Race. In Vancouver the International Film Festival runs alongside the Mid-Autumn Festival creating a rich cultural calendar. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "The Banff film festival added such a wonderful cultural element to our September Rocky Mountain tour giving us evening entertainment after days of sightseeing."
What wildlife viewing opportunities are best in Canada during September?
September brings peak wildlife activity across Canada's national parks. Elk enter rutting season in Jasper and Banff National Parks while bears actively forage before winter. The coasts of Nova Scotia and British Columbia offer prime whale watching with humpbacks and orcas frequently spotted. Properties like Emerald Lake Lodge and Sonora Resort position guests for optimal wildlife viewing. A TourRadar traveler shared: "We saw so much wildlife in September - bears foraging near Lake Louise elk in the valleys and even whales off the coast of Victoria."
What are the best hiking opportunities in Canada during September?
The September hiking season combines mild weather with quieter trails. Lake Louise area highlights include the Plain of Six Glaciers and Lake Agnes Tea House trails decorated with early fall colors. Jasper's Maligne Canyon and Valley of Five Lakes offer clear mountain views. Properties like the Moose Hotel & Suites in Banff or Jasper Park Lodge provide easy trail access. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The hiking in September was perfect - comfortable temperatures and the changing colors made every trail beautiful."
How much should I budget for a Canada tour in September?
September tour prices range from 808 USD for a 4-day Classic tour to 2865 USD for an 8-day Rockies experience. These rates cover accommodation transportation and select meals. Additional activities like the Banff Gondola (55 USD) or Columbia Icefield tour (185 USD) require extra budget. A TourRadar traveler noted: "September offered better value than peak summer months with similar experiences but more reasonable rates on hotels and activities."
What are the best scenic drives to experience in Canada during September?
September transforms Canada's most famous drives with fall colors. The Icefields Parkway connecting Banff to Jasper displays glaciers and lakes against autumn landscapes. Nova Scotia's Cabot Trail combines coastal views with colorful foliage. Travelers can base themselves at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge or Keltic Lodge Resort along these routes. A TourRadar traveler shared: "Driving the Icefields Parkway in September was breathtaking - the colors were incredible and visibility was perfect."
