Banff isn’t exactly the cheapest place you can visit. Come summertime and you’ll find hotel rates skyrocket well beyond $500 a night – and that’s just for a basic room!

Many people consider a trip to the Canadian Rockies a once-in-a-lifetime trip and will shell out over $10,000 for a week-long vacation. Because this destination is so expensive, we wanted to provide our readers a list of Banff discounts so that you can save a little bit of that hard earned cash when visiting. A penny saved is a penny earned!

These discounts are exclusive to Banff Blog readers as a THANK YOU for being here. If you’re looking for more ways to save on a vacation to Banff, check out this article.

Exclusive Banff Discounts

Via Via Shuttle to the Lakes

Via Via runs shuttles to Moraine Lake, Lake Louise, and even Emerald Lake. They run shuttles throughout the day – even sunrise. Unlike many other shuttle operators, they leave from both Banff and Canmore, and will even pick you up from your hotel.

They are one of our top shuttle recommendations and provide an excellent service. They run multiple discounts throughout the year, but the main one you’ll find is 15% off with our exclusive code BANFFBLOG15.

Fairview Limo

Fairview Limo runs shuttles to Moraine Lake and Lake Louise throughout the summer season. They are a popular choice for hikers, thanks to their flexible times. They are also the only operator that allows the transport of large dogs (for a fee). These shuttles run from the Lake Louise Inn and are a great option if you miss out on Parks Canada shuttle reservations. You can use the code BANFFBLOG10 for 10% off.

Explore Banff

Explore Banff runs sunrise and daytime tours to Moraine Lake with pick-up and drop-off at select locations in Banff, Canmore, and even Harvey Heights. This tour departs at a pre-determined time based on the timing of the sunrise (between 3:45 a.m. and 6:15 a.m.) and is 7 hours long or pure fun and views! Use code BANFFBLOG10 for 10% off.

Guide Along

Guide Along is a fantastic audio app you can use as you’re driving. They have multiple offerings in the Canadian Rockies. My favorite is their Icefield Parkway audio tour, but they also have an entire Canadian Rockies bundle!

They have offered to give our readers a whopping 25% discount on any purchase! Woohoo! Just use this link when purchasing.

Banff Airporter

The Banff Airporter is a shuttle service that takes visitors from Calgary International Airport to Canmore and Banff. If you are visiting without a car, they are our number one recommendation for getting to the Canadian Rockies without a vehicle.

Schnerp scours the internet for campsite and Parks Canada shuttle cancellations. Once there are cancellations, you’ll be notified and can get a coveted camping spot at somewhere like Lake O Hara, Berg Lake, or finally get on the shuttle bus to Moraine Lake! Use code BANFFBLOG10 for 10% off!

Golden Skybridge

The Golden Skybridge is a fun attraction for families near the town of Golden, British Columbia. Here you can find enough to keep you entertained for the entire day, including multiple suspension bridges, a high ropes course, a zipline course, and a giant canyon swing over a gorge.
