Explore Banff Car-Free

Banff’s accessibility without a car makes it a desirable destination for travelers seeking adventure, relaxation, and natural beauty. 

The town is well-served by a reliable and efficient public transit system, making it easy to get around without a car. The Roam Transit buses operate year-round and provide access to key attractions within the town as well as popular hiking trails and scenic spots in the surrounding area.

One of the highlights of visiting Banff is strolling through the charming town itself. From boutique shops and art galleries, to cozy cafes and restaurants serving delicious local fare, there’s plenty to see and do within walking distance along the pedestrian-friendly streets.

Who are we?

The Original Calgary to Banff Airport Shuttle

Since 1997, Banff Airporter® has been offering frequent and reliable transportation between Calgary and Banff to locals and visitors alike.

It all started with a simple idea: to shuttle travellers from Calgary Airport to beautiful Banff. At first, it was just two friends, two vans, and two maxed-out credit cards. 25 years on, we’re proud to have established ourselves as an important part of the Bow Valley community.

While we’ve grown in popularity and scale, our core values remain the same: we’re as committed to providing you with safe, reliable and comfortable transportation now as we were on day one. As we continue to expand, Banff Airporter® remains locally-owned, with the customer-centric approach of a small business.

Community Sponsorships

The Banff Centre

“Every year over 6000 artists, creators, and thinkers from across Canada and around the world participate in Banff Centre programs — we’re the largest arts incubator on the planet. Banff Airporter® helps us to get our artists to and from our mountaintop campus for their programs and residencies. We sincerely value our relationship with the Airporter — thanks for supporting the arts!”

Banff Mountain Film & Book Festival

“Every year, Banff Airporter® provides invaluable transportation services for the Banff Mountain Film & Book Festival. From escorting our VIPs and special guests to and from YYC, to providing a green – complimentary in-town shuttle service for our audience members. We trust Banff Airporter® to ensure that our guests will arrive safe and happy to be in Banff! Thanks for your continued support – we couldn’t do it without you.”

Settlement services in the Bow Valley

Banff Airporter® has been lucky enough to support Settlement Services in the Bow Valley by providing complimentary event transportation for local children during their different projects and events. Transportation has been provided for activities such as after school programs at the library & days at the ski resorts for newly reunited families.

Rundle Mountain Cycle Club – All Mountain Program (AMP)

Banff Airporter® has donated financially to the Canmore based youth mountain bike club, AMP, for the past three years. This money helps offset the cost of the club paying for coaches along with families purchasing jerseys. Banff Airporter supports an active and healthy lifestyle where we are pleased to assist in covering costs to this valuable local program.

Environmental Initiatives

Taking the shuttle is environmental by nature. Reduce your impact by taking the bus! Banff Airporter® further reduces your environmental impact by using synthetic fluids and 100% post-consumer paper in our office and marketing materials.
Our biggest environmental savings comes from our fleet planning. We use large 24 passenger buses when passenger loads are heavy and small 11 passenger buses when passenger loads are light.
