Alpine Limousine & Tours provides limousine service in Canmore, Alberta, from our base in Banff. Book a chauffeured sedan, SUV, stretch limousine or van for Calgary Airport transfers, weddings, private tours and group travel. Tell us the date, pickup address and number of passengers, and we will send you a free quote.
This page explains how our Canmore rides work, what to expect from the route and the seasons, and how to plan a booking, whether you live here, own a second home or are visiting for a few days.
If you have a question that is not covered here, call us and we will answer it plainly.
Skip the rental car and the shared shuttle stops. Your driver meets you after you land, helps with your luggage and takes you straight to your Canmore hotel, condo or home. The same car can bring you back to the airport at the end of your stay. Read our Calgary to Canmore limo guide for how it works.
Banff is a short drive up the Trans-Canada Highway, and Lake Louise is just beyond it. We run private rides between Canmore, Banff and Lake Louise for dinners, events and day trips, so you never have to plan around a bus schedule. See our limo from Canmore to Banff post.
From Calgary International Airport, the route runs west on the Trans-Canada Highway, passes the Highway 40 turnoff to Kananaskis Country and continues into the Bow Valley. In good conditions the trip takes roughly an hour and a quarter, though construction, weekend traffic and winter weather can add to it. Because the highway passes through open foothills before it reaches the mountains, conditions can change between the city and the valley, and a driver who watches the sky and the road reports is a real asset.
For arrivals after dark, many guests find the final stretch the most relaxing part of the trip. Instead of squinting at unfamiliar signs, you ride in the back and watch the mountains appear as the lights of the town come into view. Your driver can drop you directly at a condo entrance, a hotel lobby or a private home, and can help with skis, strollers and bulky luggage.
If you are arriving on a late flight, tell us your flight number. We track the flight and adjust if it lands early or late, so you do not need to call from the baggage hall.
Many Canmore weddings include photos near Quarry Lake, the Three Sisters and Heart Mountain by Exshaw. Our fleet includes a 1956 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud I, stretch limousines and executive SUVs, so the wedding party can travel together. Read more in our Canmore wedding car post or on our weddings page.
Start at your Canmore door and visit Banff, Lake Minnewanka, Lake Louise or the Icefields Parkway at your own pace. For Moraine Lake options, see limo from Canmore to Moraine Lake, and for the lake area private tours in Lake Louise.
Canmore has more to offer than most visitors expect. Quarry Lake is a favourite for a short walk and a swim in summer. The Canmore Nordic Centre Provincial Park, built for the 1988 Olympic Winter Games, offers trails for skiing in winter and hiking or biking in summer. The Grassi Lakes trail climbs to turquoise pools above town, and Main Street and the downtown core have shops, galleries and restaurants within a short walk of each other.
A private driver is useful when your group wants to move between these places without the stress of parking. In summer, trailhead lots fill early, and a drop-off at the start of a walk, with a pickup agreed for later, makes the day easier. In winter, a heated vehicle waiting after a day on the snow is a comfort few people regret booking.
If you are not sure how to shape the day, tell us how many people are in your group, what ages and abilities they have and how long you want to spend out. We will suggest a route and a pace, and you can adjust it as the day goes on.
Canmore hosts retreats, conferences and team events through the year. We move executives and groups between Calgary, Canmore and Banff in sedans, SUVs, a stretch limousine that seats up to 12, and a van for larger parties. See our corporate car service in Canmore and our conference and board meeting pages.
Planning a birthday, bachelor or bachelorette night in the Bow Valley? See our birthday and bachelor limo in Canmore page. Our stretch limousine seats up to 12, and the van up to 14.
Canmore changes with the calendar, and so does the way we plan a ride. Spring brings muddy trails and unpredictable weather, and wildlife is active along the highway corridor. Summer brings the busiest roads and the longest days, with heavy traffic on weekends and a premium on parking. Autumn brings golden larch in the high country and cooler evenings, and winter brings snow, ice and early darkness.
For each season, we adjust the timing and the buffer. In winter, we suggest extra time for every leg. In summer, we suggest an earlier start on popular days. If you are unsure what to expect on your dates, ask us, and we will tell you honestly what we would plan for.
Wildlife is part of life in the Bow Valley, and elk, deer and sometimes larger animals appear near roads, especially at dawn and dusk. A professional driver slows down in those conditions, and you will often get the chance to watch from a safe distance.

Winter snow, wildlife and traffic on Highway 1 can change travel times. We build in time buffers and keep an eye on conditions, so tell us your flight or event time and we will plan the pickup around it.
Canmore has many second-home owners and long-stay visitors who travel regularly between Calgary and the mountains. For them, the value of a transfer is routine: the same driver, the same service and a booking process that remembers the details. If you travel often, tell us about your usual pattern, and we will note your preferences.
Long-stay guests often want a mixture of transfers and day trips during their visit. We can arrange a transfer on arrival, a scenic day with a chauffeur midweek and a transfer at the end of the stay, all under one plan. Ask for a combined quote if you would like to see the whole picture.
To plan your Canmore ride, call (403) 762-5558, use the form on this page or book through our booking page.
