Getting to and from the airport

Taxis can be hailed outside arrivals and fares are based on a flat rate depending on what zone you're travelling to. On the return to the airport, or when travelling to destinations outside of the zones, fares are metered.

If you're planing on taking a road trip along the coast or exploring some of Canada's breathtaking scenery, you may prefer to rent a car to give you more freedom. Companies available at the airport include Hertz, Alamo, National, Dollar Thrifty, Avis, Zipcar and Budget, or you can pick up off-airport car rentals too.

The fastest way to get into the city is by taking The Canada Line, Vancouver’s rapid transit rail connecting YVR to downtown Vancouver in under 30 minutes. The trains are centrally located between the International and Domestic Terminals, with the first train departing at 5:07am and the last train departing at 12:56am.

Things to do in Vancouver

Vancouver has the best of both worlds in that you can enjoy restaurants, cultural attractions and nightlife, but also spend time in the wilderness getting in touch with nature. If you like to ski or snowboard then Vancouver also has the benefit of being located next to some of the world's best ski resorts, including Grouse Mountain and Cypress Mountain. Here are some of the top things you can do in Vancouver:

Granville Island - Granville Island is a peninsula and shopping district with galleries, theatres and a fantastic indoor market selling fresh produce. This former industrial site was regenerated and is now one of Vancouver's top attractions. Make sure you pop into Granville Island Brewing Company, British Colombia’s oldest brewery, for a pint.

Grouse Mountain -  Located just 15 minutes from the city centre, Grouse Mountain is popular with skiers in the winter months and hikers in the summer months. Take the SkyRide gondola up the mountain where you can catch a fantastic view of the surrounding mountains and the city below.

Gastown - Gastown is Vancouver's oldest neighbourhood, boasting Victorian architecture and a thriving fashion scene. This trendy area is best explored on foot, so take a stroll along the cobblestone streets and visit the famous Steam Clock, before trying out one of the many restaurants in the area.

Practical Information

British Citizens need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to fly to or transit through Canada - your passports must be valid for the entire duration of your stay.

Vancouver has a temperate maritime climate with four distinct seasons, so what you pack will depend on what time of year you're visiting. Summertime is the most popular time to visit Vancouver, when the city experiences clear, sunny skies and warm weather (normally about 22 degrees Celsius in July and August). Night times can be cool though, so don't forget to pack a jacket no matter what season you're visiting. In winter the weather tends to be cold and wet rather than snowy, but if you're heading to the ski resorts then you'll obviously want to pack some ski gear.
