About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- markhogan810 contributionsWonderful day trip to the Badlands.Wonderful day trip to the Badlands. Our guide was very friendly and helpful. Our 2 hours at the Royal Tyrell Museum was the highlight. I wish my grandchildren were with me because they would have loved it even more than I did. It was superb. The rest of the day was very good also with my favorites being the Hoo Doos and scenery of the badlands. Great tour.Written July 28, 2024
- kimdV5019MF0 contributionsA great taxi service!Tour booked for 3 of us, visit to Tyrrell Dinosaurs was the highlight for us, but a rush with only 90 minutes instead of 120 minutes so very disappointed. The areas we visited were amazing and the Badlands with the different layers of time are something to see from the variety of viewpoints offered. The Hoodoos were strange, East Coulee offered history and dinosaurs seemed impossible!! Windows were obstructed with lettering so viewing and taking photos was difficult and again very disappointing. Driver very nice and friendly but not forthcoming or informative about the areas we visited - a glorified taxi service that I definitely would not recommendWritten July 26, 2024
- crush990 contributionsBanff Day Trip is awesome!We had an amazing time with Kevin of Banff Day Trip! It was a small group which was great! We were picked up in Canmore and were dropped off later in the day! Kevin took his time and was very knowledgeable about the area. We went to so many beautiful places! It was breathtaking! Kevin would be on the lookout for animals, and we definitely saw some! We highly recommend Banff Day Trip! Just a wonderful way to experience this exquisite part of Canada!Written July 6, 2024
- Tourist5304480 contributionsBanff sightseeingWe hired a car and driver so we could view the scenery on the 2 hour drive to the park. Extremely disappointed that the windows were blocked with letters and screening. Driver was a good driver, but not forthcoming with information. We won't be recommending this service.Written July 26, 2023
- Mosaic-PCN0 contributionsHighly recommend!Rahul went over and beyond when helping us (Mosaic PCN) to get a patient to a medical appointment during the Covid pandemic. The patient called after her appointment and said that Rahul was on time, polite, courteous and a pleasure to speak to. We all really appreciated the help! Would highly recommend his services!Written June 27, 2020

Traveled to Banff and Lake Louise in Aug 2023 with my wife and kids (14 & 8). Our driver, Amtul, was very friendly and helped us customize our itinerary for the day. The drive to Banff was beautiful and Amtul stopped along the way so we could take some family photos. We visited Bow Falls, the Gondola up to Sulphur Mountain (which alone, was worth the trip), Lake Louise (which even in the rain was gorgeous). We also had ample time to walk around the Town and explore the shops. We kept in contact with Amtul throughout the day via text, to communicate our meet points.
At the end of the day, Amtul asked if the kids were hungry and she stopped at a McDonald's in Canmore so we could grab a bite before heading back to our hotel in Calgary. Funny enough, the McDonald's was actually a cool scene with the mountains in the background.
Overall, my family had an amazing day. Something they won't soon forget.

Our driver, Searle, was wonderful. He arrived at our hotel early. We only had 2 places where we wanted to go and he filled in all the rest with his experiences. We stopped to grab a quick breakfast and he assisted us with recommending amount of time at each stop to fit in everything for the day. He was knowledgeable of the area and was quick to point out things throughout the day. We would highly recommend this trip and especially our driver!

This being the shoulder time between Summer and Ski season (1st week of November), the choice for a tour to Banff & Lake Louise from Calgary was looking pretty slim. After much hunting and discovering most tours ended from the city in October I discovered this private day tour offered through Viator. Sure it was a bit pricey at $400+ for just the two of us but after completing it I was thoroughly happy with the service of Rahul and his company, Driverseat Calgary. Keep in mind this was a totally private tour and you can tell Rahul exactly what you want to see and he will do his best to make it happen.
Communication was very easy with Rahul and his staff and I gave him the must sees: Lake Louise, Banff Springs (& the Fairmont Hotels at each), Moraine Lake and a Gondola ride somewhere in the Banff National Park. Rahul delivered on all except we could not do Moraine Lake due to the two access roads being ice and snow covered. His quick thinking had us doing a fantastic hike along the Bow River to the Falls lookout point. We also got breathtaking shots of the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel at this stop. I should note Rahul is a great photographer and is very knowledgeable on the whole area.
We were picked up right on time at our downtown Calgary hotel at 7am and spent the next 11+ hours on the tour. Since we made up the itinerary and Rahul said it was doable there was no time stress at all. On the drive into the mountains before dawn we had a breakfast stop at Tim Hortons. We were allotted almost an hour on our own in Banff to grab an Indian meal for lunch. The minivan was very clean and comfortable with Rahul offering us bottled water and phone charging. My partner and I agreed the highlight was the last stop: the gondola ride up Sulphur Mountain to the observatory. This is a must do in Banff. You go up almost 3,000 feet to the over 7,000 foot summit. It is truly breathtaking and Rahul told us to take as much time as we wanted. I think we were there almost 2 hours...yes it’s that spectacular!
I can’t recommend Driverseat Calgary enough....especially when you look at the distance driven and the multiple stops we made-I feel it was absolutely worth every penny. I can’t wait to return in warmer weather! Thanks so much Rahul.
