The Banff Tour Company Dedicated To Delivering The Best Holiday Experience For South Asian Visitors
Gateway to Banff Tours
Mission
Connect South Asian newcomers with a unique blend of awe-inspiring landscapes and familiar 'Desi' comforts, while creating a true sense of home in Alberta.
About Us
Jay Dhillon founded “Gateway” in 2022 as an opportunity to help Calgarians, especially newcomers from South Asia, discover the healing power of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. In Jay’s experience, the Canadian Rockies are a “gift that keeps on giving”, and provide an infinite capacity for health, renewal and inspiration.
Jay has taken hundreds of people to the Canadian Rockies in the past year, and every single person has remarked how experiencing the mountains has inspired them and in many cases, allowed them to truly enjoy their newfound home.

Jay was a wonderful person! He really took care of us throughout our trip showing us places from our itinerary and accommodating us when there was a change in the plan. I highly recommend any family who doesn't have access to a car to give it a try!

It was an amazing experience spending 12+ hours with Jay. He showed us so many hidden spots in Banff and we were finally able to see Abraham Lake, Peyton Lake, Lake Louise, and Banff. Sometimes it's better to connect with locals rather than pay $$$ to go through travel agencies. We had so much fun and had a great driver ! 10 / 10

My recent tour to Banff, Lake Moraine, and Lake Louise with Mr. Jay Sinh was an absolutely transformative experience. Jay's deep knowledge of the region made every moment unforgettable. From the breathtaking views in Banff National Park to the serene beauty of Lake Louise, every stop was a new adventure. Jay's dedication to ensuring our family had a fantastic time was evident in the seamless organization and personalized insights he shared throughout the tour. This journey was not just a sightseeing trip; it was a soul-refreshing expedition!
