Grant (the driver) was an absolute pleasure to deal with! The ride was smooth from start to finish. I received a text with the pickup details ahead of time, and once we arrived in Banff, Grant went above and beyond—he didn’t just drop me off at the designated spot but took the time to drive around and help me find my group. Truly excellent service!

Bus was very comfortable with seat belts, plug inside and adjustable seats. The commentary was very informative and he was very well spoken. All three lakes were beautiful. All worth visiting.

Our driver was absolutely fantastic. He texted the night before to inform us of where to meet and what gate it was amazing. Then he texted today to let us know that he would be arriving at the gate. He was so full of information and made the trip from Calgary beyond enjoyable. We would highly recommend, Richard was absolutely fantastic.

Very poor service. Unclear instructions for pick up and we missed it although we asked for the bus driver to wait 30 seconds and he declined.

There seemed to be some confusion at pick up. The driver had arrived 30 minutes before our departure and then left without any passengers. We were able to connect with company and they sent another bus. We departed 50 minutes later than planned.

There was NO pickup details given on ticket. I went to where ALL the other buses leave from and waited 15mins then ran through the terminal asking where to find it to only be sent it the wrong direction and missed the bus I had originally booked. The AI help was absolutely awful and slow to respond. I don't know if I ever TRULY was connected with an actual LIVE AGENT.

I liked the choice of car for the right number of people. The driver was kind, asked me about the itinerary, and drove me to the hotel, so I was able to start a happy trip with my kids on a rainy day.

The driver seems with good humor, however when the last guest got on van, they started talking. Sometimes the driver even didn’t look at roads which was really scary for us while sitting at roll behind the driver. And sometimes he has zigzag driving…. And changed lanes without giving any signal lights. We understand he drive many times per day with same route, probably can drive without starring at road. But it’s related to all passengers’ safety. The safety is always the priority.

Terrible. The driver left 20 minutes early because he didn’t feel like waiting and leaving at the scheduled time, despite me still showing up 15 minutes early. I was left stranded by myself in the rain. Then when I called they lied and said a passenger had an emergency which later came out as untrue.

It was a fantastic ride. He was flexible dropping me close to the house. I suggest passengers to please communicate before hand about your drop off location. Some people requested to change their drop off after reaching at the drop off. They are just wasting other people’s time.
