Rider Express Canmore Lake Louise recent customer reviews

We were waiting in the exact spot we were advised to (I went to ask the Esso Garage myself to double check) and arrived at 08:45 so ensure we were early. I called at 09:07, 09:18 and 09:31 and had no response nor any email regarding delay or anything. At 09:45 a bus arrives and we approach it and the driver says “oh yeah we didn’t get to notify everyone, we have changed the schedule now. But this is the bus meant for you”. An entire hour after we had got there, without being notified and with all our luggage, in freezing weather.
