Great way to get to the Vancouver airport The bus was clean, the bus driver was polite and helpful And we were on time.

Convenient!

Antnio_P, Sep 2023

It's very convenient! The alternative option would be annoyant and risky for a turist because we always need to change bettween two bus and one ferry.

Easy transfer between two different places.

Jennifer_T, Jun 2023

As we were taking the bus to the airport we saw 3 bald eagles either on a light post or in a tree! The trip went smoothly.

Nice Ferry Trip

Jim_C, Apr 2023

The sun deck at the back of the ferry was great. We enjoyed being able to walk around the deck outside on a warm and sunny day.

Stranded

Frank_B, Apr 2023

Bus broke down at the ferry, we were told if we wanted to board the ferry our connecting bus will be at the dock in Vancouver, that bus was cancelled and I was left to find my way to the airport without help

Super trip.

Easy Way

POHCHOO_L, Nov 2022

Easy and convenient and stress free way of transport from Victoria to Vancouver airport without any hassle of luging heavy luggages. Cheaper too then someone taking the car to send u across and coming back.

Courteous drivers. The bus was on time and was clean. Great way to get back & forth. Took the worry out of planning for someone unfamiliar with the area. Would use it again.

Efficient and scenic airport transfer

Jane_W, Jul 2022

The bus was on time and was an easy way to get to vancouver airport from Victoria. The ferry trip was great! A last minute scenic tour on the way to the airport! We had to change bus after the ferry but our hold bags were switched by the driver so all we had to do was hop on another bus.

The only way to go…

Douglass_B, May 2022

James, our driver, aka Sam Elliot, was great with explaining all that there was about to happen, very helpful. Ride was great and then the ferry experience was very pleasant notwithstanding the weather did not cooperate. Traveling from downtown Victoria to either the Vancouver airport or downtown Vancouver, this is the best way to go.

Response from Host, May 2022

Thank you for posting a review! I'm glad you had a good experience using our services. We look forward to seeing you on one of our buses again in the near future :)

Fast and convenient

sasidoli54, Mar 2022

Most convenient way to travel between Vancouver and Victoria Island and vice versa. Almost door to door and priority boarding on an off ferry make it very easy.

David S, Aug 2017

Pickup at the bus terminal was smooth and efficient. Driver was informative and gave precise instructions when we boarded the ferry. Short journey time to Victoria from the ferry, again smooth and efficient. Coach was comfortable and on time for the whole journey. Would recommend and will use again.

Super service !

HELENE_F, Aug 2023

Très facile d'accès aussi bien à l'aéroport qu'au centre de Victoria. Super ponctuel (même un peu en avance à l'arrivée). On recommande vivement !
