Why take a bus to a national park?

Because the parks are the easy part. Getting to them is what stops most people.

An official Parks Canada partner

Parkbus is an official partner of VIA Rail and Parks Canada, helping keep car-free trips to Canada's parks and wild places genuinely affordable.

No car? No problem

We pick you up at a downtown stop, drive you into the park, and bring you back. You need a daypack and a seat, not a licence.

Sixteen years of doing this

We have been running buses to Canada’s parks since 2010. We know which trail fills up first and where the bus can actually stop.

Ride on your own, leave with friends

Our trips carry a mix of solo travellers, couples and small groups. It is one of the easier ways to spend a day with people who would rather be outside.

Plan ahead

Want to see every date?

National park trips sell out earliest, and new dates go up right through the year. The calendar is where you see what is left.

New dates go up all year, so it is worth checking back.

Highly recommend them. The bus service is so useful for people who doesn't want to drive and gives return facility. They were on time and bus facility was good too. Total worth the cost if you want to avoid hassle driving/parking.

Factor in the cost of gas, parking and renting a car, it's a lot cheaper than taking a personal vehicle.
