Overview

Get out early to make the most of your day. Wildlife sightings in Jasper National Park are most frequent in the early morning and during the evening. This vehicle-based guided tour offers the opportunity to observe wildlife such as elk, bear, moose, sheep, and deer at the dawn of another day.

As you meander slowly down the valley, you gaze out large windows while passing stunning views of the mountains and surrounding wilderness to capture your memories through a photograph from either inside of the minibus or occasionally by a short walk at the discretion of your guide.
Your local guide uses their expertise to select the route based on seasonal wildlife movements, increasing your chances of encounters. Along the way, you learn valuable insights into the challenges of managing and protecting wildlife within the national park. Our guide is eager to answer your questions as they passionately share the magic of Jasper’s wild side, bringing the stories of the animals to life.

    • This tour is not recommended for young children: The Wildlife Tour is typically geared more towards adults, providing educational commentary along the way. While wildlife sightings are frequent, the experience differs significantly from a zoo visit. Due to the unpredictable nature of wild animals, sightings occur intermittently during the 3-hour tour and vary from day to day. Based on our observations, young children often become restless as there are no scheduled stops on this vehicle-based tour. Therefore, we recommend a minimum age of 5 years. Although not recommended, children and infants under 5 years old are welcome, provided a seat is purchased for them at the child rate (all passengers regardless of age are required to be allocated a seat on the bus). For those bringing infants, we recommend bringing a baby carrier which can be secured with the provided seat belts on our buses.

    Very touristic. Not worth the money. The guide was motivated but the tour simply started too late for a morning wildlife tour.

    Amazing experience for the whole family. Our young children (5 and 8) weren’t always entertained by the driving from spot to spot, but loved seeing all the animals. Massive Elk, Bears, bald eagles, osprey, white tailed deer with fauns were all seen. Most of the routes we had driven already heading to hikes, but our guide Chloe was amazing to point out animals like the eagles and bear which we would have otherwise missed. She knew where to wait at all the right spots! Didn’t get time to see Moose, as we spent a bit too much time taking pics of the bears and the massive male elk, but still totally worth it! Also a great idea if you have an overcast/rainy day and need an activity which is what we did!

    Great tour. Didn't see any bears, but our tour guide Sam was so knowledgeable, friendly and helpful! We did see some gorgeous Elk males, an Osprey and a Bald Eagle. Sam taught us so much about the wildlife and environment of Jasper. Truly a great experience. We drove part of the rout the next day, and see, Sam? We caught this hoary marmot eating! They do do it, just not when you are watching ;)

    What a great way to spend a morning! We booked through Maligne tours as we had very little time in Jasper and we wanted to see as much as we could. The company did not disappoint! Our guide, Sam, took us to some really cool locations which were off the beaten track. He was absolutely fantastic and is obviously really knowledgable and passionate about what he does, he used the short time available to share his knowledge of both the flora and fauna of Jasper as well as some history of the area which left us all feeling a lot more educated. The tour itself was awesome, we managed to see some massive elk as well as a bald eagle and an osprey. All in all it was a great morning and one that I would recommend to anyone visiting the area! Thanks again Sam!
