Booked this for my daughters and they were picked up in a car not bus or van. They had to sit in a third row with their backpacks on their lap because there wasn’t enough room for all the luggage. So 2 1/2 hour trip cramped in the back getting car sick. They said it was terrible. Bright side the driver was very nice.
Eric_B, Mar 2026
On time and great service Driver was very friendly. He even help us with our bags. Will take them again
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

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

Nice vehicle, great driver. Trip was smooth driver helped navigate from shuttle to hotel shuttle. Dropped at the right part of the airport
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you Joe. We would always do our best to ensure customers are happy and satisfied with our services for a very reasonable price. We hope to see again next time.
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.

Sa_B, Jul 2025
Simple and easy. They’re flexible in picking me up from my hotel instead of the listed pick-up point, which was convenient for me to not lugging my stuffs around.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you so much for the five star review. Yes, we do accommodate pick-up and drop-offs at any accommodation along Banff Avenue. Just let us know ahead of time and we will do our best to work it out. Thanks again for using our services.
Stefan_R, Jul 2025
Didn’t show up. Rebooked on a later bus, which was not OK for our travel schedule. You should have rebooked us to an alternative bus company.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Hi Stefan, we apologize if we missed you there but we always show up. Feel free to reach out to us before leaving a negative feedback. It definitely does not help our small local business.

I would use this service again.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you so much Sandra for leaving us a positive review. We look forward to having you again aboard our shuttles.
Jennifer_D, Jun 2025
Driver is friendly and professional. I waited in front of our hotel instead of the meeting place, something I must’ve misread, but he was nice about it even if he had to turn around.
Also, the price for the service from our hotel to the airport is the most reasonable one compared to other companies I’ve looked into.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Thank you so much Jennifer for leaving us a positive feedback. We really appreciate it. Hope you could recommend us to all your family and friends when they visit here. All the best!
Robert_C, May 2025
We did not make the return ride with the Fairy Bus and had to book with another company. The day before departure I received a call from your company saying that they had to change our departure time and that they “were sure this was not an inconvenience”. Well it was a major inconvenience so I booked with another company. Funny thing is that after I told your company that I had booked with someone else I received a phone call from your company 10 minutes later saying that seats were now available at the original time. What a coincidence! Anyway, very poor service.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Good day Robert, we sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations. Please know that we would always try to be better everyday. As a small local company, we will do our very best to ensure our travelers have a wonderful experience.
gurdeep_s, May 2025
First , the driver was late , and we had to call him to inform him that we were waiting for him, He drove very rashly and he stoped for gass ,that he did not fill, lastly he was negotiating with some fellow pasengers to drop them dowm town for 30 dollars, that i beleave he took as they were with him aftet he droped us at the calgary airport. he also droped a passenger some where on the way to the airport.
Didnt feel safe and had to remind him twice that he had to drop us at the vancouver airport first as he was planing to drop some passengers downtowm first.
Please note.
will never book this company.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
