Since 1892, the spirit of the Canadian Rockies has shaped Pursuit’s Banff Jasper Collection (formerly Brewster). Our story began with Jim and Bill Brewster, two brothers who guided travellers through the wild beauty of Banff National Park — Canada’s first national park — as well as Jasper National Park and the surrounding untamed landscapes. While our business has evolved and expanded since those early tours, our dedication to alpine hospitality and exploration remains unchanged.
Today, our Banff and Jasper operations — including attractions, lodges, restaurants, tours and transportation services — are headquartered in the heart of Banff. Pursuit employs more than 1,000 year-round team members, many of whom live, work and play in Banff and Jasper.
Our Promise to Place reflects Pursuit's commitment to the Canadian Rockies communities we call home. Through EcoFund initiatives, the Pursuit Community Fund and local partnerships throughout the Canadian Rockies, we support the people and places that spark wonder every day, while helping to ensure the beauty of the mountains can be enjoyed for generations.
