Reviews of Tourism Jasper (Gym)

Security Teams

Best place for tourist information. Friendly and loads of free info.

Kim Ravenswood

Great place, very friendly staff with lots of knowledge at your fingertips.

Genevieve Rossetti

Jasper has become very much like Banff. It's all about money it's way too commercialized. It's not near the beautiful place that it used to be

Bryn Erickson

It's like any visitor center. Go here for hints and tips on what there is to do in the local area.

Meow Cute

Great to find what you're looking for and know there is a donation to maintaining the Park trails factored into every purchase.

Jasper Guy

Very informative staff, great souvenirs. :)

Arnica Lau

Fantastic place , heaven for tourists. Beautiful nature and wildlife.

Kousik Ramachandran

We were lucky enough to be spending 4 days in Jasper on a two week trip around the Rocky Mountains. As excited as we were about it we hadn't made any specific plans while we were here, so popped in here to get some information on what there was specifically to do. There were plenty of leaflets on local activities which we took full advantage of. We were also interested in some local hikes so asked the staff if they had any recommended ones. They supplied us with a map of all the popular hikes of all lengths and difficulty, which was just what we needed. We were also a little nervous about the dangers of wildlife and they were very helpful and clear on their advise, including areas closed off due to elk giving birth (we are from the UK so don't have to deal with this kind of wildlife often). Finally, the actual building itself is beautiful being the original from when the town was 1st established. The town is still not huge so you have a real sense of it being on the frontier.

Sheri Stewart

Great place for information and free activities in the Jasper Town area and the National park.

Uwais Razack

Lots of maps and lots of flyer's. Clean bathroom

MANNY REHMAN

Always been in love with jasper nature is nature it always deserv à 5 out of 5

Super friendly and informative. It is worth stopping in even if you are a Jasper regular for updates on road, trail and wildlife changes. The gift shop has some interesting stuff as well.

Jonathan David's Painting

Sooooo....amazing ....except for the fact the snow canceled the fishing experience.

Hafiz Imran Khan

The information centre was closed and the lawn out front was not taken care of.

Enzo Sonego

Wao wonderful❤️

Dan Schykulski

Very helpful, friendly people at a spot that is a very beautiful town.

Astar Young

You have to stop by and get your info here. The Friends of Jasper gift shop is here. They have a great selection of gifts and maps. And the money spent there helps out the park.

Laura May

Very nice

Dave Lessmeister

Friendly staff that is well informed about local business to serve your needs and opportunities for entertainment of whatever your persuasion is; outdoors, museums, historic sites and many other venues.

Marie K.

Helpful staff, correct info provided, knowledgeable, you can buy the park pass from here if you missed it in entry point

Sally Guide

Very helpful to the people that visit the park ???? and surrounding parks as well

Gary Wilber

Nice place. Great shopping, and info, but don't be in a hurry when you come because it's always busy.

Jeffrey Murphy

Great place to visit, as the members of staff have great knowledge of what to do in the National Park. They will provide you with any necessary information you need, such as information on hiking trails. They are also up to date with the weather, so the people who work there can give you a good idea of what clothing to take with you when you are out.

Speedy Gonçalves

Very easy access and fairly accommodating staff. Be sure to ask a few people/locals about trails and such though, as a trail was recommended for us, and I only learned afterwards from the gift shop attendant that it was known to overrun with insects at this time of year.

Helena B

Friendly but useless in terms of telling people what to do about not letting the wildfires ruin your holiday. There are only so many waterfalls and narrow canyons one might want to visit

Maxime Lusignan-Laplante

The majestic grandeur of snow-cover mountains, interesting people, a rich heritage, and passenger rail access were draws for a break with the train-loving grandson.

Raffael Link

Amazing staff loved their passion and care for tourists/travellers

Jerry Ewasiuk

Staff is nice and helpful, knowledgeable of park attractions and wildlife, and happy to help. Great selection of flyers and folders on things to do. They are supposed to have free WiFi but we could never connected due a high amount of simultaneous users.

Inga-J's Family Adventures

I learned soo much. People are soo helpful, and the gift shop has some pretty cool stuff.

steve thompson

The center was fine, but downtown is just restraunts and gift shops. Would be nice if there was more about the area. Maybe a shuttle bus to local attractions like museums, art galleries or hands on experiences about the science of the area.

Ajay Sankar

Friendly staff offering service in french too! Not needed but appreciated. They are greatly located and it's the best place when you have a questions.

Mitchell Fowler

Very friendly and helpful, also has a nice little gift shop.

Randy Norman

Nice and clean place. Friendly staff with lots of information to share. Clean washrooms.

Aerial imaging net

Visited Loulous for some lunch and it was awesome! Highly recommended if you're stopping in town

Anthony Goodwin

Though Jasper is small town, but needs to stay there for more days.

Angela Rosenplot

Everything was awesome!! great people 10/10

Kulpreet Singh

Got some terrific direction and suggestions from the staff here. Really helped us make the most of the three days we had to enjoy this spectacular town! This could be the most hiker friendly place in the Rockies!

Fran Gateman

Helpful tips! Although I have visited Jasper several times, I always benefit from their knowledge of area.

Michelle Gregersen

Helpful and friendly staff that is knowledgeable. I went there twice to get advice on local hikes. I was given info on current state of trails as well as maps and tourist materials.

Dee Cee

Friendly staff. Though I was not warned about the very poor condition of the muddy trails in the tonquin valley.

Angel Nicolajsen

Really helpful staff, pamphlets and free WiFi if you need help finding your bearings.

Luke Kitching

I found the service friendly and quick. They had nice maps and were knowledgeable about the natural areas.

Wasi Ahmed Yousaf

I want to live in this place. Beautiful and breathe taking scenery.

Robyn Fraser

Jasper is the gate to the Canadian Rockies. It offers many stores and hotels

Matthew Kolba

Must go if you are in Calgary or Edmonton, around 4 hours drive from both point, however it take 6 hours to get there because you can not avoid the breath taking sceneries down the road and you definitely park the car on the designated areas to take pics. There are plenty of places for safe stopovers.

Chandan Ghatkar

They were endlessly patient with my stepdad who needed more information about glaciers he had seen. Honestly i am very impressed with the professionalism and service ability. Keep up the good work.

Jonathon Lintott

Lots of informative staff. Lots of information. Great gift shop.

Marek Kocourek

A good escape to enjoy myself lol

Jonathan Dodge

We visited the Jasper Information center in February 2020. We had noticed a mining operation near Hinton (only 75 km from Jasper) and a covered conveyor type structure going overtop of Highway 16. We had asked the staff at the info center what was being mined and what the conveyor was for. The staff had no clue. I stated that it likely was coal mining and the covered conveyor was to haul the coal. Surprisingly the staff here thought coal mining was nonexistent in Canada! Wow! I had to tell them that coal is actively mined near Stony Plain. They assumed it was oil and gas. I stated that the top of a mountain is being excavated. Later, when I looked online, there is a large coal bed in the area that has several active coal mines. I am incredibly embarrassed for the Canadian government to have such ignorant people working in the information services center in one of our busiest national parks. Please educate your staff on all resources in the area, not just the wildlife and water.

Liliana Angulo

Tourism Jasper office is located right opposite the Jasper Rail Station. We did the trip to Jasper by VIA Rail from Vancouver in July 2019. After arriving in Jasper and depositing our luggage in our hotel we first came here to get all the information of places to visit, best restaurants and shopping areas. The staff are very courteous and helpful.

Live Wesige

Friendly,helpful staff with lots of information about the area. A great place to buy some souvenirs and help out our National Park Service. If you need directions or anything about the area this is the place to go!

Olga Pobereznichenko

Staff was helpful and organized. If you are going to get a pass for the Edith Cavel arrive at least 30 minutes early as the lineup grows very quickly

Robert Coppard

We went there for indoor activities suggestions and they gave us helpful suggestions.

Mike Kavanagh

Gorgeous

Lucas Cheater

Jasper is a beautiful little town with lots of stuff to do!

alin aguilar

Was far were I'm from but it was worth it for the stunning views

David Chin

Charming and cute little town you don't want to miss adding to your life story. Great for winding down and relaxing after the long drive. Spent a whole day just hanging out at the big central park with the family eating ice cream and taking a nap.

Leoni Zumkehrer

Amazing place, you'll want to visit. Nature at one of it's best.

Santana Sangsurt

Helpful staff with a decent knowlege of the area including conditions for hiking.

Ella Bella

Brilliant, very friendly staff, all the info you could need. Also had tonnes of leaflets and brochures on nearby activities, as well as weather and wildlife reports. If you're looking for guidance or inspiration on what to do, definitely pay a visit.

Justine Mae

Jasper holds a near and dear place to our entire family. Camping is usually a yearly family trip to Whistler. My parents will pack up for a weekend and just camp there too on their own. We all have so many memories as kids and now making memories with my husband and son is always wonderful. So much to see and do!

Avery Rudelich

Food service needs toilets should be able to go online to check parks Canada not just Alberta

Beej Ward

Great honest advice. Made our stay worth while even with rain

Ron Togunov

Friendly, knowledgable staff with free maps and good advice. Good place to stop to start off your visit and form plans. Free parking across street. Can be quite busy at times.

Tammy King-harding

Helpful place to get a quick question answered.

Jean Chow

Best place i have ever been to for nature and beauty. A definite must see. My heart will forever be in Jasper.

Adrian Sullivan

Staff is friendly, good information, Wi-Fi doesn't work properly

Marc Cluet

Tourist office closed on a Sunday in tourist season. But you still want tourists to visit, right? And mailbox is full; unable to leave a message so unable to plan a trip. Wow, disappointed.

Jamie beirnes

Very informative, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Line up was a couple of minutes on a July weekday to all staff questions.

Krystal Elder

August means traffic, crowds, no parking at lakes and attractions. Line out the visitor center but parking is 15 minutes. Overall, not super impressed. Perhaps try lower season.

MR. Biscuit

We arrived the night before and the Visitors Centre was closed. It's important you purchase a park visitors permit required for the number of days you visit which we did first thing the next morning. The staff were very friendly and helpful insofar as offering 'must see' locations.

Erlangga Hasto

The start of an amazing holiday.

Lavi Shpigelman

Quite the helpful place when you are visiting Jasper for the first time.

Ellen Sheppard

I only walked by today. Still a pretty building.

The POV Drive

Stunning sceneries...

Gary Weller

A place to go in order to have all necessary info regarding hikes in and around Jasper

Kevin Y

I'll surely be back.

John Philip

Lovely building. We were the only ones in the building, staff could have reached out and offered help.

Sarah H

Lots beautiful place to visit. Very informative

Michelle Earl

Very informative and helpful regarding things to do and status of construction

Bob Skorupa

I remember the front lawn of this place being the resting spot for hundreds of backpackers back in the 70s and 80s in their tie dye, army surplus gear. Not so much anymore. Still a cool place to stop for some gifts, souvenirs, information.

DaBurgerBandit

Must visit Alberta especially Banff and Jasper. Take a drive from Banff to Jasper Will feel and love the nature....

Heng Dju Ong

Baught National Park passes here, they gave us lots of information. Recommended.

J. Alvin Agustin

Simple straight forward and free consultation on available activities within the park. A must stop for people new to the area.

Jordan Lam

It's the over commercialized nature experience. Save yourself the gouge and camp a couple kms outside of the park.

Carpet Guru

Beautiful place, very peaceful and the most breath taking views! I recommend heading to Fifth trail and walking these trails all around by Maligne Lake. Such beautiful surroundings and medium hiking level.

Sharakha Sashikumar

Great am loving it. Am in Jasper now celebrating ???? my birthday ???? planing on relocating having lots of fun.

Darlynton Nonju

This one star review is to draw attention to an issue with their backcountry reservation system. Many backcountry campsites in Jasper you need to reserve 6 months+ in advance, so naturally a lot of people's plans change in that time, and they can't show up. Since these are high-demand sites, the "right" thing to do is to cancel your reservation so that someone else can use it. Unfortunately, Parks Canada charges an $11 "cancellation fee" to cancel, in additional to forfeiting your "$12 reservation fee" (which is on top of the site fees). This fee is actually more than the $9.80 it costs for a single night booking, so in theory it would cost you more money to cancel a 1 night booking than to just not show up. This leads to a lot of people not being able to take trips that they would otherwise have the opportunity to. When I did Jasper's Skyline Trail on a Long Weekend, I was the ONLY person at one of the sites I stayed at, even though the site was booked out. I was annoyed that 7 other groups hadn't made cancellations to open the sites for others, but now I understand that it is a Parks Canada policy that is at least partially to blame. Considering that you lose your $12 "reservation fee" regardless, there is no need for an additional $11 cancellation fee. Another good policy change would be to have some sort of "check-in" system a week or a month in advance, because I bet some people just forget. So remember, if you can't get your back-country reservation, remember that it isn't necessarily high demand that is getting in the way - it may just be good old fashioned mismanagement.

Monika Doedee

Great place to buy fishing licenses

Domingo Gison Jr

Very knowledgeable and friendly staff as well as helpful and provided lots of information

The staff are always helpful. Try to go early so it isn't as busy!

Royce

Pre booked tours well organised, adequate refreshments available in cafe although the restaurant was packed. Friendly staff. Gift shop pricey.

char

The staff were very helpful and friendly

Craig Nicol

Good place to visit if you come to Jasper for the first time, especially if not in the season. Polite staff is very informative. They quickly and pretty good explain you your options for sightseeing, hiking or other tourism. Employees also will give away maps with their own explanations. You can find a lot of free brochures and some advertising there too. They have nice gift shop on the site, where you can buy a lot of gifts and original souvenirs. No washroom there, it is across the road and they will show you.

Ann Marie Zlomke Chan

This tourist stop is so busy it is unlike any other I've been to in Canada. It is shoulder to shoulder in the summer. The staff were very helpful and friendly though, however long their day had been.

Phoredome

Lots of information. Permits to Edith Cavell available here only. Friends of Jasper Gift Shop located here. Profits go to the park.

Helpful and knowledgeable staff, worth paying a visit for some insight on visiting Jasper and the surrounding areas.

Danielle Y Martin

Nice center and good gift ship. All proceeds go to the park. Nice quality stuff, not junk.

Dave Kachanoski

There is a intercept center in the building behind the visitor center. Kids enjoyed that more. Specially that sandbox with a projector and xbox kinect sensor. They also went for the show at 4:30pm on both afternoon.

Raphael Mwangobola

Just fantastic. We last here a few years ago, few changes but still glorious.

Max Dondo

The Parks Canada agent was knowledgeable and inquired into our interests and made exceptional suggestions - Mt. Edith Cavell and to hike only 1-2 hours along Indian Ridge to see the panoramic views (there was no need to hike the whole ridge).

Bill Hudyma

Great place with plenty of rangers and others to give advice. Also art and craft gifts made by local artists that are unique along with books and other tourist items about the area.

Charles Edwards

????

Dan Wilding

Very friendly Very helpful Love it

Sean Ewart

Gorgeous little town.

James Hadden

Jasper and banff are beautiful parks but they specialize in ripping people off, try to get a hotel room see what you pay it's criminal.

Michelle Komisor

Not able to go inside????

Mona Shehzad

A beautiful place and historic building. A lot of people there to help you with planning your visit to Jasper National Park.

Axel Von Arnim

It was very fun and there was lots to do and the view is always amazing

Great visitor center with helpful staff. Closes a bit too early

Aviram Oren

One of the best experiences in my life! Every single person must try this!

Eric Kaufman

Must visit place. Stunning views of mountains and lakes, and railways. Friends of Jasper NP has a comprehensive collection of books and nice jewellery by local artists.

Quirky building with free wifi. Helpful and knowledgeable staff and the Friends of Jasper National Park shop puts all money back into preserving the area.

Javan Leo

Good staff, knowledge of the area is good and they have hiking maps.

Simon Mala (PTM)

Have a blast every time we visit this wonderfully God's created place. It's always a great experience to see and be close to nature.

Sandy Deliva

Nice weather; great people,

TomH Holland

Unique and iconic building just across from the train station.

Matthew Brookes

Jasper the hidden gem as Banff gets all the publicity. If you're willing to travel you're likely to see many elk and Moose. I thought it one of the many highlights of my week long vacation.

Swati Gupta

Smitty for lunch. Reasonable fast service. Town is nice for a tourist town. Not too busy but enough to satisfy the shopper in your family

Poulami Das

Good place to stop over for bites & drinks. Quite touristy. Visited on Canada Day, very busy full of people. They had a parade celebration while we were there. It was packed, but the staffs there were quite helpful with park maps etc. Recommend.

Yhali Gat

Extremely helpful and kind

Brier Albano

A small town but with many lovely shops and restaurants of good eat.

Anica K.

Very informative, friendly and also can buy your park pass for the day.

Jörg Ziesak

I love Jasper. We did a day trip and it was awesome. Did the gondola, went on 2 hikes, and a whole bunch of other things and it was a cheap day. You could spend lots of money and do more, but I don't think you need to to have fun

Canada Vlogs

Good place, but we didn't find information we needed.

Elliott Fox

Easily accessible info at tourism Jasper office , found what we were looking for and some info we didnt realize we needed.

Kristen Frost

On the ball, had park passes and fishing licences and had a real knowledge of hiking trails

Annie Groeninger

Amazing place, hopefully I will return and spend more time exploring this town

Very knowledgeable and extremely helpful.

usman mirza

It is great place to visit with family and friends

Great place, really useful information. Told me what roads were suitable for my car.

Jose Villarroel

So much to see and do. It's Sep 9th and it's +21!

Noman Sikandar

Love this place. Must visit and you feel close to nature. It mesmerized with eternal nature. Wild and serene.

Seema Ali

If you want a guide in where to find a camper campingspot for the night. They can help you out!!

Atlántida Cels Solano (La Palomita)

It pales in comparison to Banff. However, it is one of places you must stop if you are out in the area. Banff, up hwy 93 to Jasper or the other way around.

Jaden Fontain

We lucked out and got some amazing weather. My kids and I biked all over the place. Lake Annette was gorgeous.

Brenda Muller

Nice place to get some quick info about things to do in Jasper. There's also a curio shop adjacent to the info centre. It's located at the heart of the town with interesting things to see within walking distance.

Julio Eccheli

This seems mainly like a place to sign up for tours. It's in a beautiful building though, and the gift shop is nice.

Kitty Kong

Absolutely beautiful place couldn't ask for any better! Such a nice low key town to visit not crowded by big brand name places just locally owned stores with their own unique tastes.

Cheryl Kaufman

Washroom signs were a decoy. They are over 100 yds away across the main Street and down the road. Nice facilities, if you can get there in time.

Bill B

It looks very pretty outside

Sweet Bay

Jasper is one of my favorite places. It's retained that small town feeling. The mountains around Jasper are stunning. Lots of great restaurants and bars to enjoy as well.

Marina T.

Very helpful, friendly and staying sharp and covid safe. Loved the help and maps, the wise words and helpful hints... thanks guys!!!

Vida Cade

Not friendly or helpful. Handed us a map circled downtown Jasper on it mumbled a few things softly and about a 100 miles an hour. She seemed irritated when we asked a question. We just left

Nikita Walker

Awesome staff members that will help with trip planning. Good place to re-energize after a long drive.

Soumav Maiti

Used the maps and other information to get around. There was many people here as it was in the middle of summer so what can you do. We will go back again and again to Jasper.

Terina Douglas

Beautiful placee love it

Stephen Reid

Jasper is an awesome place to go if you want beautiful mountains scenery and you get to see wild animals on the way through the park.

Jonard Corotan

We drove to Jasper to have a picnic in the park because it was so beautiful lol +3 ... best random idea ever :)

Alex I.

The staff were very helpful, patient, and generous with maps and literature. Center has a lovely building in the center of the town, yet is accessible from the limited on-street parking or the small lots that line the main drag. The center's mission is not so much to orient you to Jasper (either the park or the town), but to answer your questions. That's an adjustment if you're used to US Parks, so don't expect a breathtaking film or lots of educational displays. Come educated and prepared to ask questions and you'll get all you need.

G. M. Baker

Friendly, helpful. They have good merchandise as well. Every evening has free walking tour, you might need priority tickets, so ask inside. The reason I gave four starts, one staff pretended not to understand my English. I don’t know maybe she only speak French or because I am Asian???

Craig Reimer

If you are a smoker be prepared for long trip no smoking

Nick Lockie

Asked about accessible friendly information. Was told there was nothing. In this day it is exceptionally disappointing.

Annette Stevenson

Great place, great walks and the beer was fantastic.

Edward Spencer-Phillips

Stunning area. Jasper National Park was more than I expected.

T R

As you drive into town, it'll be on your right. Stop here to get your bearings and ask any questions you might have about activities, accommodations, hikes, etc.. The staff is always great and super knowledgeable. A great first stop in town to feel how laid back and friendly everyone is.

Ralph Snell

Was able to pick up a park pass here and skip the long lines at the gates. Staff were very helpful and efficient, and had me in and out within 15 minutes, despite it being a pretty busy day!

Matt Green

Better wifi than any other locations in Jasper area with quite helpful staff. But parking lot was small or hard to find and wish there were a bigger sign for the visitor centre and a bit bigger seating area.

Linda Pinney

Information centre was very informative and provided a lot of information and great places to go in the area, was additionally very patient and easygoing.

Will Britton

Extremely nice and helpful staff

Jay Hussein (Jayzakh)

Excellent information center with very friendly staff. They know their way around Jasper and the national park and can give you valuable information where to go and what to do. The information center also includes a small gift shop with high qualitative Canada gifts and provides free wifi.

Ying Woei Ooi

Small but quiet and so many information stuff. You have to drop there.

Richard Kiefl

It is awesome place as I heard of it We missed cruise boat at maligne lake because we have to leave for whistler on May 25 and cruise starts on May 25 But never mind next time I wouldn't miss it I loved this place including my stay at Jasper house bungalows, lakes, hot springs, National park etc Will come back again

Charlene

Unfortunately the internet was down so we could not buy our park pass, but the staff was very friendly

Dan McIvor

Small store with a surprisingly great selection! Plus sales go to supporting the park directly. Staff was lovely, stop in and see for yourself!

Topher Ellis

Jasper is amazing, beautiful, wonderful for too many reasons to list. One of our favorite family getaways. So many things to do and places to visit. Thank you to all the people and shops and places for making our trips amazing everytime.

Charlene Peel

The staff were helpful (visited twice). I did find that their information was more geared to summer. The winter and fringe season activities are not well documented or versed.

Arif Khan

Love the mountains? Jasper is a must but this trip was very busy and couldn't get a room so book before you go.

Daniel Gibbons

Very good for advice and tourist material. The rangers are very helpful.

Vachana Sudha

Not a lot there however the girls were very informative and had a lot of recommendations as to where to visit and what to bring while we did. Any questions they did not have the answers to they were able to point us in the right direction to find them. Worth the stop if you are looking for new places to visit or new ideas on how to spend your time in Jasper.

mongmong ko

Beautiful. We purchased tickets for the adventure and missed the bus by 5 minutes. They said they could slot us in for 2 days later but we'll be back home then so that didn't work. We took the skywalk which is one activity of the two in the adventure. We left with 1/2 hour cushion time but there was road work being done. By the looks of it we were far from the only ones who were late, but policy is no refunds so suggest leaving an hour cushion or just driving yourself across the road to the toe and hiking up a little ways for the same awesome views with no extra cost. We would have done this if we had known before.

Chris Botur

Is it nice place to visit,many tourists arounds, you can buy something for a little present for you friends or family and they have some restaurants around enjoying etc.

Prince Jaswal

Great visitor center in one of my favorite places on earth.

Adrian Robinson

Pretty attractive place

Derek “watchman” Jones

Walls of leaflets bombard you with information and make you feel like there is so much to do in and around Jasper, you'll need 17 lifetimes…that's if you can fight your way through the barrage of free wifi zombies

Carter Tuchscherer

This is the information center not tourism center. The good map is wrong. Very knowledgeable staff.

Choua Yang

Excellent stop if you're new to Jasper and would like some free maps and brochures, or if you'd like to find a high quality souvenir or gift.

Dave Regimbald

Was here in Jasper for Canada Day. Really neat.

Vijay Shivdasani

Can't believe parking on street is free for 2 hours here. Clean air, clean washroom, clean water, all free here. Love the mountains, love the lakes and rivers, love the animals (bears, mooses and cows roaming alone side of roads), just love it.

Steve Jones

Awesome views

Bruce White

No one wearing face masks we didn't enter.

Howard Suissa

Really helpful staff, great gifts, and most importantly: free wifi.

eamin heanoy

Very friendly and informative staff. Gave us everything we wanted to know. Worth dropping in if travelling to the area

Stephanie Golle

There's a lot of employees ready to give you information about Jasper and the National Park as well as personal recommendations. I'd reccomend dropping in if you're visiting Jasper so that you can get some advice on how to make the most of your visit.

Bob Stobie

Always worth the trip. Something to see in every season!

Charlie Myles

Rocky Mountaineer, a Canadian rail-tour company that’s the proud owner of GoldLeaf Service, has added four new train carriages to its fleet with another three set to be added in 2020. The first four will be added to two popular routes: the two-day journey between Vancouver and Lake Louise or Banff and the two-day trip between Vancouver and Jasper.

Bill S

Helpful staff, knew their stuff about Jasper. You can also email them too about weather conditions, trail conditions before embarking on your journey.

angel A

Good place and advices. Clean toilets, a lot of brochures and maps. Helpful staff

Tania Kelly

Friendly staff who know their stuff. The stuff they don't know, they are connected enough to refer you through to other staff who do specialise in the area. There's also a neat gift shop with some fab local crafts and the obligatory tourist tat for good measure.

Jesse Lamoureux

It was very busy when we got there, but in few minutes the staff managed to help us. The lady was very knowledgeable and helpful.

Marj Mark

Think we got a newbie who couldn't answer any of our questions. Nice building with lots of pamphlets

Barbara Dauerty

Really helpful and knowledgable staff. You could tell they had experience doing the things they recommended. Gave me confidence that I would be spending my limited time there well.

Keith F

I wanted everything in there lol including the t-shirts, of which there was a really high quality selection. Super friendly staff, told me if I saw anything I wanted after I returned home just up call them up and they would mail it. Lovely old period building. Super cute little birds nesting in the porch eaves, just chirping up a storm. Centrally located.

Courtney Boomer

Provided us with useful maps but weren't able to provide info and recommendations beyond the written material

Jack Hawkins

The friendly staff provided local info. The info centre is dog friendly and has free WiFi.

John Cooke

Beautiful looking tour information centre. Everyone here is kind, they inform you well. The only downside is that the public washroom is actually across the street from this building.

Deborah Lashley

If you need info for your trip in Jasper, this is the place to come! They have a gift shop and super helpful employees which have vast knowledge about every kind of hike, locations and activities within the park. It opens at 8AM I believe and runs until 5PM so make sure you come here with plenty of time to check it out. It is located in the small town of Jasper so you definitely have a lot of things to do while you are here. Also a side note is don't spend a night here or even fall asleep for like 5 minutes in the day time because they will give you a ticket if you are parked in the lot.

Julian König

Free parking is rare & very welcomed nowadays..

Caroline Cunningham

Very helpful staffs DN great selection of maps and things to do. Defenitely recommend visiting this place if it's your first time I. Jasper or if you don't have an idea what do to here. Great service and helpful staffs!

Wonderful view of the mountains and a downtown that is easy to get around.

Edgardo Reyes

Beautiful heritage building

Berke “Berkely”

Very courteous staff, Explained everything in detail, didn't had to google anything after that, very knowledgeable staff, convenient location,

Miguel Bran

The lady helping us was fantastic and showed us some good things to do while in jasper

Alex Barros

We stopped into the info centre to check on road conditions South through the park, since it was snowing. They had up-to-date information on the roads which helped us decide whether to proceed. The info centre has wifi available, and several staff ready to answer questions. Parking can be challenging in the area, but we found a spot in a lot across the street.

Ron Dell

A lot of interesting information in a old probably historic house. Good place to start your visit in jasper

The docents there were very helpful. Gave us ideas of what we should definitely see for our short time there. Also recommended several good restaurants and the Bear paw bakery

They had a lot of literature about things to do in Jasper. It's a good first stop when visiting. You can park next to the firehall across the street.

Philippe Gosselin

Staff were very helpful and knowledge of the Jasper area.

john crowe

Great place to find info, helpful staff. Rad place to sit outside, relax and have a picnic.

Tyrone Fowler

Definitely visit this place in case you are not sure where to start. Staff was very informative and professional.

James Holder

Very helpful staff and gave good recommendation for things to do with the time limit that we had and as per our interests. Definitely stop by before you start your jasper journey you might learn of something that you did not plan for. Mount edith cavell needs pre booking of parking tickets ( i think only for 2017) available here from 8:30-10:30 am but they usually have more later. Check with staff.

Sharon Toppe

Working in the background trying to entice visitors to this wonderful town of Jasper, never too sure where they are focusing their efforts. Sure like Jasper the Bear getting around to promote events. Here is a photo attached at Marmot Basin Ski Hill.

Andrew Kuzmanovic

If you are planning to discover Jasper, highly recommend vising them. They are very knowledgeable and will help you plan a itinerary that caters around your fitness level and interests.

D M

Excellent place to go but you better have your wallet full of money it is expensive I do believe that Banff better than Jasper but still rated very good

Margaret Hui

View from Mountains is seriously breathtaking. Alot of places to see in jasper. Must visit ❤❤❤

Jasper by the busy train tracks. Loved the long freight trains that rumbled by and stopped at the junction and curve out of Jasper.

Jo Lb

Very helpful!

Nadria Bridgett Wilson

Lovely and beautiful everywhere.

Talk to people, in the know, about the hiking trails and then when you get all the info about that turn around and talk to the people who know all the restaurants, etc in Jasper. Got all the info I needed in a very short period of time.

Great park to visit

Sajith Dayaratne

Beautiful place Jasper

Simon Iremonger

I loved the very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They gave us very clear. Directions and advice that ended up saving us a full day in the Rockies. Share your plans with them and they can guide you through your visit to Jasper.

John Curran

Went here twice and the staff weren't particularly helpful in identifying what trails were good to go on. I'm sure there were plenty of good trails, but the basically just highlighted the trails that were drawn on the map.

Joan Willard

A nice tourism center in the middle of a lovely city. Spending my time here for awhile, enjoying the surroundings, before continue my journey to the pyramid lake. Not as crowded as Banff, which is great for me.

paatan james

Really helpful and free wi-fi and free phone available!

Joshua Bryks

Very helpful and friendly

David Wei

Jasper is a beautiful place to visit. You must stay at least couple days to enjoy many of the attractions. However, I feel that many of the business owners dislike tourists (which is weird as they make a living from tourism). Many don't want to help when you ask them for directions and just plain snobbish. One shop keep flat out told us she doesn't speak English and continued to talk on the phone in English to someone.

Demetre MD

Helpful staff ????

Brock Smith

Jasper is become our most favorite vacation ever???? It's beautiful, serene, mystic and all the wonderful at the same time???? You have to experience it to feel it☺️ please visit Jasper to have a life time experience????

j y

They had 2 booths set up in front of the entrance. Didn't have to go inside the building. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable! I definitely recommend visiting if you need information.

Andy Stevens

One of my favorite places! Love the town. Perfect size and nice people.

We visit this place every time we are in jasper. We love the books! The selection of local authors and interests is awesome

Trang Luong

The staff provides good information and takes time to help to plan your trip.

YJ McD

Jasper is a beautiful little town, surrounded by majestic mountains. Make sure when booking a room/cabin they let you know if the T. V. 's work or not. Can get boring in your down time. Lots of hiking trails. Lots of souvenir shops.

Randall Brown

Informative and ready for the public with lots of pamphlets and things to do around the park

Brian Lum

One of the best places in the world. So many beautiful things to see!!

Jason Chiu

Great place great staff and great food. Highly recommended

Neal A

The tourist information in Jasper is helpful and all the things you will need to know about the area. They have maps and information about all the activities you can do and find places to go. The people are very helpful. the restrooms are across the highway to use and are free but are very busy. there's plenty of area around the outside of the building to enjoy picnics and just sitting out and enjoy the sun. stop by in the help you find the things that are going on locally today and maybe in the next few days.

chris hamilton

We visited Jasper many times. I love it's natural beauty and charisma.

TLS Sutherland

Beautiful city. As we entered the city we're happened on a heard of elk. We also found a few, must sees, from the map provided.

Owen Pahkala

The national park guys are stationed here offering great advises. Jasper tourist advisers are also here as well. Skip the gift shop it is a bit disappointing. Bathroom is not in this building - got to go across the street by the railway.

kibainuyaha

One of our beautiful mountain parks

Tucats Tucats

We stop to have our lunch picnic here before going to Jasper. The scenery was really good. The staff are friendly as well.

Manjit Singh

Really busy on the hills...town was quiet

Eric Bertone

Friendly staff, well prepared to answer your questions, but in my opinion the elder locals are a better choice to go to for guides :)

Jess Strongman

Good and informative, with plenty of advise in what to do around Jasper and within the National park

Mee Jeong Ka

The gentleman on the desk was excellent. We got all our questions answered and a lot of very helpful explanations. We left there feeling like we were served well. We were very confident that we will be well prepared for our next trip to Jasper, which we hope will be this coming July.

wayne thornton meridiannorth@hotmail.ca

Beautiful park but I would do your own research on things you want to do. I got bad advice on 3 different trips to the visitor centers throughout the canadian rocky's

Krishna Kumari C

They show us the best places to go.

Sanjeev Dhir

Stop here for all your park information. You can even check campground availability or make a reservation at their internet kiosk. You can talk to someone about park or town info, book a tour, buy a gift, or attend daily presentations.

M Cunningham

Very nice town despite major railroad, which isn't pretty, but historic. Shops offer good prices! Husband bought a great raincoat for $20 US currency. Great quality. A fair number of restaurants that have good ratings. We ate at L&W. I had Veal-delicious!

Blossom Williams

Kool place. Tax $$ well spent.

alice2072

Very helpful staff ready to answer your questions!

Mary Wegi

Beautiful scenery

Kezban Simsek

Amazing experience here, the people working at Parks Canada have a real passion for what they do and it shows, not only did they give us all kinds of information to make the best out of our days here but also found my wedding ring I lost and brought it to our location less than 30 minutes after we reported it!

Kyle Ames

I have used this center twice, both times with good results. Bought a $10 day fishing license and also got some useful local knowledge about which lakes had room for shore fishing. Somehow here the employees seem to enjoy helping people visiting Jasper - it is not just a paycheck. Definitely worth a visit in Jasper.

Ginny Springer

Very friendly staff, really doing what visitors expect from them. Guidance according to your requirements (i.e. how much time you have and what do you want to do as far as the activities are concerned) and this place offers free WiFi, neat and clean restrooms, and free parking. A very first and a must visit place if you are visiting Jasper Park.

David Hodson

Scenic. Must visit in lifetime

pritpal singh

Jasper, an alpine town in Canada’s Alberta province, is the commercial centre of Jasper National Park. Jasper are full of stunning natural scenery, beautiful lakes and kilometers of defined hiking and walking trails. One place might have more or less to offer a visitor depending on their taste, but they are both worth visiting. Generally 3 days to 4 days in Jasper National Park is a good start to see all the famous sights and experience the best hikes in the Canadian Rockies. We reserved a place for camp at Pocahontas campground. It is located on Highway 16, approximately 38 km northeast of Jasper, at the junction that provides access to Jasper National Park's Miette Hot Springs.

Justin Williams

I love Jasper. It is my Happy Place.
