This bright green bus leaves from the airport and goes downtown at the fraction of the cost of a taxi.

Vancouver is consistently voted by tourists as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It is also one of the most accessible!

Buses, SkyTrain and ferries are all great ways to explore. Take a ferry to Victoria and look out for killer whales!

To get from A to B in the city, I'd recommend a yellow cab. There are several bus routes covering the city, but be prepared to wait. Vancouver is a city of cars, and public transport is not necessarily as reliable as in other cities.

Take the Aquabus (www.aquabus.bc.ca), Vancouver's commuter ferry service from Granville Island. A relatively cheap way of getting from one side of False Creek to the other with the added bonus of a scenic river cruise. Beautiful at night!

If you want a day outside of Vancouver there's only one way to travel - by float plane. Planes leave from the harbour next to Canada Place and take 20 minutes or so to fly across to Victoria on Vancouver Island, and the views from the tiny plane are stunning. Ask the pilot if you can sit in the front for the best view.

You can then spend an afternoon in Victoria for a perspective on what Canadians think Ye Olde England is like - tea on the lawn of the Empress hotel is a local favourite - or visit the quite fantastic Royal BC Museum, before wandering down to the harbour for your return flight.

The best way to get downtown is to get a cab, which is approximately $26. Alternatively you can catch the 'Airporter' coach for around $12 which will take you directly downtown or to the ferry terminal to Vancouver Island.
