Vancouver: Ferry Transfer from Victoria to Canada Place Cruise Terminal

Additional Information & Description

The ferry transfer from Victoria to Canada Place Cruise Terminal combines a relaxing coach journey with a crossing to the Vancouver mainland. Take a seat aboard a luxurious coach and enjoy views of Canada’s landscape along the way, with the water crossing adding a different perspective to the journey.

One ticket for the coach and ferry journey

This one-way transfer includes three transport stages: scheduled motor coach transportation from the bus terminal at Capital City Station in Victoria, a ferry trip from Swartz Bay Ferry Terminal to Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal, and scheduled motor coach transportation onward to Canada Place Cruise Terminal. The ticket covers both road legs and the ferry crossing between them, rather than just the sailing. The complete journey takes approximately four hours, making this a substantial part of your travel day. Allow for that full journey when considering onward arrangements: the duration applies to the combined transfer, not only the time spent on the water.

Arrival at Canada Place Cruise Terminal

The final coach leg takes you from Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal to Canada Place Cruise Terminal in Vancouver. That terminal is the endpoint of the transfer, so the service is particularly relevant when your onward plans begin there. The journey runs in one direction, from Victoria to Vancouver; a return trip is not part of this ticket.

Where to start in Victoria

Departure is from the bus terminal at Capital City Station, with the starting-point address at 721 Douglas Street. Arrive 15 minutes before departure. This is a scheduled coach service, so use that advance-arrival time when planning your journey to the station, separately from the four-hour transfer itself. Your departure-day plan should therefore account for the time needed to reach the station as well as the requested early arrival, before the transfer gets underway.

Your ticket and transport to the station

Tickets are delivered instantly, and smartphone tickets are accepted. You can therefore present your ticket on your phone. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included, and neither is transportation to the departure point. Arrange your own journey to Capital City Station before joining the service; the included transport begins there and finishes at the cruise terminal.
