The Wildlife and Nature in Waterton program is designed to get you out experiencing nature, seeing it, and feeling it. Our Professional Interpretive guides are experts at knowing where to find wildlife and in what kind of habitats they're likely to be found.

Private Guides

for sightseeing tours, nature walks, or hikes.

What better way to learn about one of Canada's most unique and distinctive national parks than with a naturalist guide. Did you know that this tiny park has more species of flora and fauna than any other Canadian mountain park? It has the Widest range of biodiversity in Alberta! It's also the Warmest place in Alberta. (Those are two of Waterton's four famous W's. What might the other two be?)

A private guide can also take you to some of the special places you won't find out about on your own. Hidden waterfalls, unique views, and places where you can just get away from everyone!

Available daily.

1/2 day rate: $200
Full Day rate: $300
