Serenade in Vancouver??

[39august]

What is the pier that Serenade uses in Vancouver, please,? It seems I have read that there are 2 different cruise ports there. How much is a taxi from the Vancouver airport to the cruise pier?

The Serenade docks at Ballantyne Pier. I don't know how much a taxi costs, since we took the RCI transfer (which, thanks to US Direct, takes care of picking up your luggage from baggage claim).

 

The bus ride was about 20 minutes.

 

This seems to be a good site for Vancouver piers:

Ballantyne Pier and the cruise terminal at Canada Place are within 10 minutes of each other on the Vancouver waterfront.

 

From Vancouver International Airport, located south of Vancouver in the suburb of Richmond, it's about a 25-minute cab ride and should cost you around $30 CDN or so.

 

I just saw the Serenade leaving port last weekend and she is a beautiful ship.

 

Enjoy your cruise!

Thanks! I will look into RCI transfers as we will be staying at an airport hotel(we get in late) and this might be cheaper than the taxi, tho' we usually do our own taxi.
