About us

Rainbow Rockies

Queer-owned, community-rooted, and built on belonging, not hype. Out here, everyone rides with pride and a little mountain joy.

What we do

Why we exist

Built by us, for everyone.

We’re not trying to be the biggest shuttle company in Banff — just the one that makes every traveler feel like they belong, from the moment they book to the moment they’re standing at the lakeshore.

Get In Touch

Scheduled or private?

Our scheduled shuttles follow set departures and itineraries to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. Need something more flexible? Private transportation gives families and groups more flexibility to request preferred timing, destinations and stops, subject to availability.

Our values

What we stand for

Belonging first

Everyone, every identity, every body, every background. The bus is warm and welcoming.

On-time, every time

Because your day depends on pickup. We plan carefully, communicate clearly and respect your time.

Light on the parks

Shared shuttles mean fewer single-use cars and a little less burden on everyone.

Local, year-round

We live here. We drive these mountains. We know what we’re doing, then with you.

On nous a arrangé pour que l'on puisse faire la randonnée que l'on souhaitais même si elle prenait plus de temps que le temps prévu sur place. Que ça soit au lac Louise ou Moraine on nous a indiqué les bons spots, fait des photos etc. Je recommande vivement

Our family had an amazing experience with Rainbow Rockies and intend to use them in the future.  As an independent business the level of caring, patience and desire to ensure each customer has a five star experience truly stood out!

Booking the Lake Louise and Moraine Lake sunrise tour was the best decision we made for our trip, and our guide, Cam, made it absolutely exceptional! Waking up early can be tough, but Cam brought fantastic energy, great humor, and seamless organization right from the start.

She knew exactly where to navigate to get us the absolute best viewing spots before the crowds arrived. Beyond being incredibly knowledgeable about the area's history and geology, Cam went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable, happy, and getting the perfect photos. If you're planning this tour, do yourself a favor and ask for Cam! 10/10 recommendation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The sunrise tour to Moraine Lake and Lake Louise by Rainbow Rockies exceeded all my expectations. The guide, Cam, was amazing, very attentive, and shared many interesting facts about the local area. Special thanks for the stop on the way back at the place where the train moves like a snake. The view was stunning. Thank you so much.
