The ride was quick. He stopped and picked us up and we were on our way. There was two stops before the airport. Took about 1.5 hours from Banff.
Janice_W, Jul 2026
Our driver did a great job. Arranged for special pickup right by our hotel. On time. Very courteous! We would use this service again!

James_P, Jul 2026
On time and on schedual. The drivers were polite and helpfull. They answer quickly to any questions on the chat.
Rosanna_L, Jul 2026
More information required as to where to meet the driver as it turned out it was at the back of the hotel in a car park, we were waiting out the front - luckily someone spotted us and told us to go round the back. The van was pretty cramped but did the job.
Gabriel_Z, Jun 2026
Excellent service! The driver - sorry forgot his name - was great, reliable and polite. A very enjoyable experience.
PETER_N, Jun 2026
Lovely blue lakes, some waterfalls and some wildlife. Fun day with Reuben. Nice small van. Stops along the way.
Soyoun_K, Jun 2026
Affordable shuttle to Calgary form banff! Other shuttles cost way more. They should do a better job labeling the van and this ticket name as many passengers had trouble locating the van.
Brett_R, May 2026
I can change the ratings but i am still waiting on the pick up location.. I am trying to see if you see this notification, i hope i dont have to call a taxi to the airport with my flight being 3 hours away.
Eric_B, Mar 2026

Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you so much for the 5-star review Eric. We always strive to do our best everyday to offer phenomenal shuttle bus service between Calgary and Banff - shared or private services. All the best!
Maxwell_F, Jan 2026
I booked this shuttle last minute for me and 3 friends. The driver showed up on time however on arrival he insisted on charging us an extra $10 per person for our ski bags which was not previously stated on Viator or the confirmation email i received from the company. The driver acted in an unprofessional and confrontational manor when i said that we shouldnt have to pay anything extra. He then complained having taken the smaller shuttle bus either our luggage, which is not in our control at all. The next time i travel to banff i will not be using this company.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Good day Maxwell, thank you for the feedback and for using our services. Please accept our apologies if you felt that way about the way it was communicated to you. Yes, we do charge oversized luggage fees for C$10/each and it should be stated clearly on our service terms and conditions as a link. Rest assured, we will make an extra effort to show it upfront to all travelers. We do this so we would know in advance the vehicle that we can asssign and ensure there will be enough space to accommodate extra and oversized luggages. It’s funny because we have had a passenger before with 8 extra luggages and a ski bag. Hope you would understand and reconsider us again in your next visit. We wish you safe travels.
Kevin_G, Dec 2025
Shuttle never showed up at the designated location, I was there a whole 30 minutes early too!!!!!!!!

Lynn_M, Sep 2025
Pick up on time and helpful. Sitting In the back was terrible when he opened the rear gate. The exhaust was overwhelming the van needed maintenance. We made a stop before the airport which I was counting on the extra time so was a bit stressful arriving

Nan_L, Aug 2025
Our departure time was moved up one hour the night before or we had the option to go an hour later. Then the van transmission overheated about half an hour before we got to the airport. Luckily it restarted and we did arrive but the van was clearly not in good condition. This was a partner service to Fairy Bus. Sheesh! Should have spent a bit more I guess.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Good day, we sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations. We are still glad that you made it to your destination nice and safe. Our vehicles are regularly maintained, however, there are things we cannot control. Please be assured that safety is our number one priority. We thank you for the review and apologized for any inconvenience this might have caused.
Libby_H, Aug 2025
We were 30 minutes early waiting for the Fairy shuttle. There were many buses and shuttles coming and going from the lot and we were looking for the one that looked like the one on the ticket. Also asking other shuttles if they were the Fairy bus as well. We waited 15 extra minutes after
She should Have been picked up and had to get my daughter to the airport so we had to drive her- it took three hours- taking an entire day from our holiday. I wish the driver would have counted the passengers and then come to the bench where everybody was sitting and asked if anyone was going to the airport. Because their van was not marked at all. Total day wasted.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Hi Libby, we sincerely apologize if you needed to save the day. All passengers are contacted and informed multiple times about vehicle changes if needed and before the shuttle departs. We are truly sorry if we did not meet your expectation.
Francine_B, Aug 2025
Good option for transfer between Banff and Calgary, timely, comfortable, smaller vehicle. Great driver
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you so much for leaving us a positive review. We will always do our best to offer the best shuttle from Banff to Calgary and ensure everyone is satisfied with our service. Have a great day.
Jerall_R, Aug 2025
Shuttle was running late and was partly why we missed our flight out of Calgary. That caused us to have to spend money for extra meals and a hotel stay.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Hi Jerall, we sincerely apologize for the delays that you experienced as this time of the year can be a little too busy in the Rockies. Traffic and other uncontrolled circumstances can definitely happen. We hope you made it to your destination safe and sound. Again, we are sorry if we did not meet your expectations.
Amanda_B, Aug 2025
Banff Airporter apparently contracted out with another transport company, which led to some confusion at pickup. I was not informed of the change so I was looking for a shuttle marked "Banff Airported". Luckily the driver found us and explained the situation but a heads up would have been helpful. Also, more detailed location information would have been helpful. The hotel had two entrances and a lot. Aside from all that, the driver was helpful and quick.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you Amanda for leaving us an honest feedback. This time of the year can really be a hectic time in the Rockies and all companies are working hard together to ensure a positive and wonderful guest experience. We will definitely consider your recommendations and we will continue to work harder as the best shuttle service from Calgary Airport to Banff or Banff to Calgary Airport.
SANDIP_P, Aug 2025
I recently used the Banff to Calgary Airport transfer service and had a very pleasant experience. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, ensuring a smooth and relaxing journey. The driver was punctual, courteous, and highly professional, making the entire trip seamless from start to finish. I truly appreciated the timely service and stress-free travel, especially on the day of departure. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and efficient transfer service in the region.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you so much for your review. That's definitely our goal - to ensure we offer the best and comfortable shuttle service from Calgary to Banff and hassle-free free transfer from Banff to Calgary. Thank you again for using our services.
Nicole_E, Aug 2025
The shuttle never came to the pick up area and when I called they lied about it all. We ended up having to get a cab for $350 and almost missed our flight. We will never use this site again.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Hi Nicole, we apologize for your experience. However, our shuttle waited for an extra five minutes for you. Rest assured, we always show up and we always will. We apologize if there may be a lack of communication and we are always working hard to be better. As a sign of our apology, we did still offer you a full refund. Thank you for considering our services and hope that you can still give us a chance next time.
Amy_B, Jul 2025
The driver was very helpful and considerate. Apparently they are able to pick up at alternative locations which is good to know since we could have travelled a shorter distance for the bus.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you Amy for leaving us a positive feedback. Yes, we do complimentary pick-up and drop-off to any accommodations along Banff Avenue. Thank you for booking our services and hope to have you again next time.
