Transportation to Grouse mountain?

Recommended Posts

Is there a shuttle that leaves from any of the hotels going to grouse mountain and Capillano bridge? Hyatt, Crown Plaza and Hampton Inn and Suites are our hotels for the group.

I don't know about a shuttle but we bought a daily transport pass, which is good for the busses, water taxis and train. We they crossed to North Vancouver on the sea bus (water taxi) and caught a bus that took up to Grouse Mountain. Took the tram and walked around and from there we took a bus to Capilano bridge. After we did that we went back to the bus station and caught a bus to Lynn Canyon Park. After returning to the bus station we caught the water taxi back to Vancouver. We spend about 2 hours at each place and saw a lot. Was a great day!

Thanks

Were the buses readily available and how did you know which one to take?

It was a couple of years ago but I do not remember waiting for busses, so they must have run every 15 or 20 minutes. They had a very good bus schedule that had all of the major attractions on it. I just remember it being very easy to get around. We saw it all in a day and did not feel hurried at all.

we bought the vancouver entertainment guide for $10 you can go to http://www.entertainment.com and it had a buy one get one for the bus/ferry all day long transportation ticket you can buy in your hotel...it saved us a lot even after subracting the $10 for the book and we also used the book for entrance for the mountain and lots of other attractions in vancouver and most are buy one get one....it definitely saves a ton!
