Whistler Taxi Companies Prepare for Another Big Summer
With Redbull Elevation Tour, Kokanee Crankworx, Canadian National BBQ Championships and many more great events summer in Whistler is starting to rival the winter for popularity. As the summer gains in popularity every company doing business in Whistler has had to adjust its philosophy to suit. Many companies used to simply shut down for the summer season but now most focus on summer traffic. Ski rental shops become bike rental/tour providers and the cross country ski trails turn into a golf course.
Although much of the traffic to Whistler in the summer is Canadian based, summer has challenged the way Whistler taxi companies do business. At Resort Cabs we used to be able to rest some of our fleet for the summer…now we are lucky if we can pull one into the shop for servicing. Whistler is no longer a winter town…golf, mountain-biking, beaching and hiking have made it truly a four season resort.
