Q. We will be camping in Banff for about 4 days and will have a 5 year old, a 3 year old, and a 10 month old with us. Our trip is in early July.
A. You really have to check out the hot springs, they are just outside of Banff, about a 5-10 minute drive. There are life jackets and their is a kiddie pool with in the hot springs!
Check out some of the gift shops on Banff Avenue, they are really cute and always full of neat souvenior ideas.
Cave and Basin National Park is about a 5 minute drive from Banff as well, we found it interesting. It's not a big museum or anything so it may be good for you guys with a young family.
Take the Gondola! I remember going on it when I was about 3 years old, I loved it! At the top there is a little restaurant and gift shop.
You can also tour Banff Spring Hotel, it looks like a castle and was at one time the biggest hotel in the world. You can tour at your own pace which is nice.
The ghost town is really cool too. There are lots of hiking trails around Banff, you can tour a few other museums, lots of excellent restaurants. You could also drive to Lake Louise and check out Canmore.
Hope you have tons of fun. Banff is really beautiful. My husband and I were just there for 4 days and wish we could have stayed longer!

What is the nicest place to stay in Banff?
Q. What are the nicest hotels in Banff? Want comfort, scenery and luxury.
A. Banff Springs Hotel is definitely the nicest place to stay in Banff. Beautiful and comfortable rooms, great views, but fairly expensive. If you're willing to pay for it, that would DEFINITELY be the place you should stay.
Would like to plan a vacation to Canada. Recommendations on cities and other attractions?
Q. I am interested in Quebec to experience the city. What to do there? I am also interested in Banff and Lake Louise for its natural beauty. What other recommendations do you have? What have you liked/disliked? Places to stay/places to visit? Thank you!
A. I live in Calgary, Alberta. Let me tell you the Banff Springs Hotel is fantastic! They have great Hot Springs!There are so many different things to see. The Hotel is said to be haunted. Sometimes you can see a lady in a wedding dress walking down the main stairs...
There's also a candy shop that has some of the most delicious candies from all over the world! Ummm, fudge!!
Victoria City in B.C. is also great. A lot of different cultures in that city. And their museum is something else, too.
And of course, don't forget about Calgary. Our zoo is huge! When was the last time you saw a polar bear? They even have an interesting dinosaur exhibit. And Heritage Park, with one of the oldest trains in the history of Canada that goes all the way around the park. They also have a wax museum depicting what life was like 150 to 200 years ago with real antiques.
There is so much to do on the west side of Canada, sorry I don't have much info about the east. I hope you have a really unforgettable vacation!!
