[@pixelart205imovies4]

[@philgray1023]

[@harrysingh9990]

[@georgeworsfold2068]

[@TheNewTravel]

+George WORSFOLD you're welcome George

[@ItsHollyDayz]

[@TheNewTravel]

[@204ds]

Thank you for your videos. I m going to Vancouver next week. You ve helped me a lot, what to visit and how to get to the city, thanks again. Keep on posting the videos. Greetings from Slovakia.

[@BOTICAS48]

Awesome video, thank you so much for making this, it's incredibly helpful!!

[@TheNewTravel]

No problem. Thanks Diego!

[@pearlsswine7416]

I'm going to Japan and will have a 5-hour layover in Vancouver. Just looking to see if it would be possible to briefly explore any part of the city for an hour or two.

[@itsryanwilkes]

Solid video Dan. I always try to opt for the train/bus option when im traveling! Nice to see that Van has easy options to get from the airport to the city

[@TheNewTravel]

:)

[@LookWhosBlogging]

cool. normally we like taking public transit when we travel. but during our last visit, we had to have a rental cuz the in-laws came along.

[@TheNewTravel]

It's too bad your last visit was just before I moved here! It would be cool to meet up in the future

[@LookWhosBlogging]

originally we were thinking of going back to Vancouver next summer, but with our Hawaii trip in the spring, we might stay in the states in the summer. So perhaps next Summer!

[@rosemaryperez-lognion5495]

very helpful will be traveling to Vancouver in late August for Cruise and was wondering how much time we would spend on the skytrain to get to downtown as we were considering hotel near the airport for two days prior to our cruise

[@shirajilav]

Thanks for the informative video. So, we FIRST , BUY a Compass card then buy a ticket?

[@joycemanning3505]

Thank you very much for the information and the quick reply

[@TheNewTravel]

You're welcome. Enjoy your time in Vancouver

[@ArtistExplores]

This is helpful, it's always so much easier when cities have a direct line right to downtown! I'm hoping to head to Vancouver in 2017 to this is awesome. :D

[@TheNewTravel]

If you make it here, let me know! :)

[@akien3444]

Gonna add this video to my fav, so when i will go there, i know already how to get easily to downtown

[@TheNewTravel]

That's great, I'm happy to know you're planning a trip to Vancouver!

[@adriyedi7692]

Very helpful for any Vancouver travelers. Will share your channel with my friends who are visiting next year :)

[@TheNewTravel]

Fantastic, thanks Adri :)

[@peterbailey4665]

What do you mean by a bus to seattle from waterfront?

[@hiromiashmore7686]

Thank you Dan, this is extremely helpful. I will have about 5 hours lay over time at Vancouver airport. So I think I should get out of the airport and at least feel little bit of Vancouver. Do you have any suggestion where I should go from Waterfront?

[@TheNewTravel]

You are very welcome, Hiromi. On my channel I have a playlist of videos called "The New Guide to Vancouver". In there I have a video called The New Guide to Gastown. Gastown is a cool neighbourhood that many tourists like, that is an easy walk from the Waterfront. I'd recommend that video to see if it's right for you. There's also a street called Robson St that is downtown, with many shopping options if that interests you. Have fun!

[@hiromiashmore7686]

Thank you Dan, I will check in your other site. look forward to blouse around Gastown@!!

[@pearlsswine]

How do you find out how many "zones" you'll be passing through?

[@Locomotore99]

Thank you for providing this helpful video. :-) Can you tell me if I can tap IN at the airport, take the Canada line train to Waterfront THEN change to the Expo line and tap OUT at the end? Thanks.

[@TheNewTravel]

+Locomotore99 Hi locomotore, yes you can do that. You will have to tap Out at waterfront to get to Expo line, but if you go right to it, the transfer will be free. So no additional charge to tap into expo line :)

[@Locomotore99]

Great! Thanks. Have a good Sunday.

[@TheNewTravel]

You're welcome! If you're looking for more things to do in Vancouver, I have a few videos about that which may interest you. Thanks for watching :)

[@joycemanning3505]

Very helpful. Can you tell me what stop I would go to for Burrard Hotel at 1100 Burrard St.

[@TheNewTravel]

Hi Joyce, I'd recommend Vancouver City Center, one stop before Waterfront

[@KiingVictor]

Can u pay for the campus card with physical cash?

[@ChasingTheOddShapedBall]

In Christchurch the public transport is only buses and if you need to be arriving in daylight hours to get the bus from the airport to city - most of the flights from Australia arrive at midnight so it's annoying. In Brisbane and Sydney there's a train but it's so expensive! $20 for a one way ticket to the city!

[@TheNewTravel]

$20 is a lot! Yeah I hate when cities overcharge you coming from the airports

[@cedricmeallan]

Major correction: You can't take a train to Seattle from Waterfront Station. To do that, you have to take the Expo Line to Main Street-Science World Station. That's where the "real" inter-city train station is and where you can actually catch a train to Seattle.

[@natnasci]

Waterfront Station is in the old CPR ( Canadian Pacific Railway ) station. Not used for trains to Seattle. It has the Skytrain lines,the Seabus, and the commuter train to Mission called the Westcoast Express. For Amtrak's Cascades train to Seattle you use the former CNR ( Canadian National Railway ) station, now called the Pacific Station which is across the street from the Main Street/Science World Skytrain station, just outside of downtown. The fares shown for single tickets etc in this video include the $5.00 additional charge from the airport. Buying single ticket TO the airport or within the system do not have this $5.00 fare. Check out Translink webpage for fares.

[@TheNewTravel]

Thanks for the useful comment Nat. You're right, I misspoke when I mentioned the train to Seattle. That's actually over by Main Street

[@Lancaster786]

Thanks for that 👍🏽

[@sendashish]

If we want to go to UBC campus from YVR via Canada line. Which is the closest station we can drop and how to go from there to our final destination? Please advice

[@TheNewTravel]

Get off at Broadway - City Hall and then take #99 Express Bus to UBC. UBC will be the last stop, so you can't miss it :)

[@naruminakamura2893]

Hi Dann, do you suggest I should get a day pass if I'm using Sky Train round trip from the airport to waterfront?

[@TheNewTravel]

+Narumi Nakamura if you are only taking the two trips, buying them both will be cheaper. So I only recommend the day pass if you plan to take a third trip :)

[@hiromiashmore7686]

Hi Dann, your guide is so helpful and I had a very easy trip to downtown from the Airport. it was Sunday so there is a discount and got a day pass which was little cheaper than buying two single tickets. I'm looking forward to visit a beautiful city of Vancouver again.

Gr8 tip! 👏👏👏👏

[@TheNewTravel]

Thanks for watching Cauê =)

[@maryalgar8779]

Any tips for YVR to UBC? And then days later going from UBC to YVR.

[@TheNewTravel]

+Mary Algar to my knowledge the most direct route would be taking the skytrain to broadway-city hall and them getting on a 99 express bus to ubc.

[@maryalgar8779]

What about getting off sky train at Langara-49th Avenue Station, and then taking Bus #49 westbound to UBC?

[@DaphneXplores]

That works too! I live in Vancouver :)

[@maryalgar8779]

THANK YOU!

[@logowatchman]

Thanks. Big help dude.

[@EmanueleAndreozzi]

Cool channel!

[@TheNewTravel]

Thanks Emanuel :)

[@VenusandMaiku]

=) I like the skytrain in comparison to Toronto subway system. our system is totally bleh.

[@TheNewTravel]

Yeah I heard Toronto's trains subway system needs some major improvements
