We Believe in Heritage

Since 1892, generations of travellers have trusted Brewster to introduce them to the beauty of the Canadian Rockies. We have over a century of experience in helping our visitors understand and appreciate the natural and human history of our magnificent home.

Based on the strength of our Driver/guide training program, Brewster was awarded the Banff Bow Valley Award for Heritage Interpretation and Best Interpretation Practice.

We not only take you to glorious places we tell you about the scenery, the wildlife and the people. Our Driver/ guides will fill your imagination with tales and commentary. We will enrich your experience through outstanding interpretation and learning opportunities.

We arc very conscious about looking after the environment. Our environmental efforts, together with our expertise in heritage interpretation, prompted Parks Canada to enter a partnership agreement with Brewster, because we support and promote national park values.
