City advice
Getting around
Public Transit and Taxis are the only options at the moment
You might find out quickly Lift and Uber are not yet in Vancouver. But rest assured we have a good public transit system that can get you around the city quick and safely. If Busses and Trains are not your style there is a few taxi services in the city that are easy enough to call.
Getting around
Mobi Bike Share
If you want the freedom of biking around the city. Vancouver has tonnes of bike lanes just for bikes and a bike share program called Mobi. It has daily rates and long term rates. Many guests have liked this service so far.
