A Straightforward Airport-to-City Route

YVR to Downtown Vancouver private airport transfer for hotels, offices, residences, Canada Place and the Convention Centre by sedan, SUV or Sprinter.

Downtown Hotels, Canada Place and the Convention Centre

Downtown is not one single drop-off. Hotels around Coal Harbour, Robson Street, Yaletown and the central business district have different access and loading areas.

Cruise passengers should specify Canada Place because luggage volume and terminal timing can influence vehicle selection.

Sedan or SUV for the Airport Transfer

A Lincoln Continental works well for smaller parties with modest luggage. The Chevrolet Suburban provides more flexibility for families and travellers with several suitcases.

A Mercedes Sprinter may be more practical when a group wants to remain together rather than divide into multiple smaller vehicles.

Luxury SUV
