Question

What is the dress code?

Question

Where to stay?

Answer

Would recommend Banff because it will be walkable to The Bison. You could also stay in Canmore, which has more budget friendly options and about 20 min driving distance. Book asap, because we are already seeing options selling out.

Question

Does it cost money to enter Banff National Park?

Answer

From their site: To enter Banff National Park, you need a daily admission pass. Entry and service fees help support visitor services and facilities. This means that every time you visit, you are investing in the park — and in a legacy for future generations! Daily admission fees Adult (18-64): $11.00 Senior (65+): $9.50 Youth (17 and under): Free Family/Group (up to 7 people in one vehicle): $22.00 Easiest place to buy: Online on the Parks Canada website At the park gates (if driving to the park you pass thru these gates) Our note: You pretty much have to pass through the gates and buy the pass if you are renting a car, and we recommend if you are anywhere outside of downtown visiting the park areas you should also purchase a day pass. Sharing a rental car and getting the group pass works best! And these prices are in CAD, so it will be less in USD.
