The ULTIMATE day trip to BANFF, CANADA 🇨🇦 – Can you survive BANFF on a BUDGET?

In this weeks travel vlog, we make a day trip to Banff, Canada to see if it’s possible to survive Banff on a budget.

After a two hour shuttle bus ride from Calgary, we arrive bright and early to start our day of exploring. Since it’s only 9AM, we decided we should start our day with some breakfast. First, we visit a local coffee and bakery chain, Wild Flour. We grabbed ourselves a Dandelion & Mushroom latte, and ham and cheese croissant. We also decided to grab one more breakfast item at a different cafe, Banff National Perk. Here we grabbed a sausage, egg, and cheese wrap.
After finishing our breakfast, we still have a few hours to fill before our bus to Lake Louise. We decided to explore Banff Town by foot, making our way towards Bow Falls Trails. We took a walk along to Bow River, admiring the beautiful nature along the way. We soon arrived at Bow Falls, where we took a quick break to enjoy the wonderful scenery.
Next, we head back to Banff town, where we stopped by The Fudgery for some sweet treats. We also visit a small shop, called To Go Arashi, where we purchased some sushi for later. After making our purchase, we found ourself a picnic table, where we snacked on a peanut coated caramel apple, and a dark chocolate snail.
After finishing our snacks, it was finally time to grab the 8X bus to Lake Louise. After an hour long bus ride, we arrived at our destination. Blown away by the incredible nature, we took our time admiring the turquoise waters, and the incredible view of the Rocky Mountains. We decided this was the perfect backdrop to try our sushi, a Tuna, Mayo & Avocado Roll, which we purchased earlier in the day.
After this quick break, we continued on foot towards Lake Louise Village. It is here that we waited for our Popa Car ride, which took us back to Banff Town for some dinner.
For dinner, we decided on a restaurant called Eddie Burger & Bar. We purchased a Rocky Mountain Burger, made of Elk meat, and a poutine. The perfect way to end this day trip!
