Alberta Transportation

The city bus goes up to the hot springs and up to the Banff Springs hotel. $2 one-way. Day passes for the bus are also available. Makes it easy to get around if you have no car. If you're flying into Calgary, there is an airporter bus service that is very convenient and very reliable that will take you right to your hotel in Banff (and pick you up there for the return trip). This is much nicer than the usual "super shuttle" service you can find at many US airport. Reservations highly recommended. http://www.banffairporter.com/scheduled.php The Fairmont Banff Springs hotel is a wonder! Pretty pricey, but worth a visit, even if you don't stay there. It's an amazing stone castle (literally), with lovely antiques! Many restaurants inside, too.

ride the bus, the streets in this city don't make sense, can be confusing

On the East side of the Canadian Rockies. Famous for the Stampede in early June every year, probably the greatest show on earth. Visit Olympic Square every morning the Stampede is on for free breakfast cooked fresh from the back of the "chuck wagons". Each show day includes traditional rodeo in the afternoon and each evening is chuck wagon racing followed by a great stage show and fireworks. Graet value for money. Book tickets on line before you go for great seats at a good price. Stay out of town at Holiday Inn Express and ride the tram in from the nearby station.

Nice to walk right in front of the nature without losing connection to the society ;)

if you dont knwo the town its better to get a local to help for directions
