If you are leaving your car at the ferry and walking on, there is really no reason NOT to park here…read moreexcept for, "The Massey Tunnel was unexpectedly backed up because people in this city don't understand how to merge and I now have approximately 7 minutes to park and make it to the terminal in a photo finish like manner." ... though even in said scenario, I think this place may be faster then the panic park on the BC Ferries lot. Have you SEEN how far you have to run to the terminal?! IN HEELS?! At Park N Go, a shuttle takes you to and from your car to the front door of the ferry terminal and going either way, i've never had to wait longer then 5 minutes to nab a shuttle and get going (with the exception of holidays, which you may have to wait for a second shuttle or sit on a strangers lap). It's $11.50 a day and they don't overcharge you - it's down to the hour. $11.50! That's $7 cheaper a day then the ferry lots and you pay on the way out, so you don't have to fiddle with stopping for cash, guestimate what ferry you'll take home or fumble with telephone payment if you've missed a boat. You get off the boat, you shuttle to your car and you pay - cash, credit or debit. It's painless. Seriously. NO excuse.

Had my mind blown by these guys at Butiq Escapes. Asked for a simple romantic weekend tasting wine…read morein the Okanagan and they completely shattered every expectation I had. They asked me how specific my tastes were and I told them to surprise me. We ended up staying in a yurt with the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on. We woke up each morning on a piece of private property right on the lake. Each day we were chauffeured around and pampered with food, wine, massages and special little extras we could never have seen coming. It really felt like the trip was created for us and you can tell the team had a good time setting it up for us. I've recommended their services to anybody who asks and a lot of people who don't. I just never expected to have an experience as unique and wholly satisfying as this one. Will definitely be back for more.

They planned everything for us and we got a taste of not only the awesome spots that one must see in Vancouver, but also all the hidden gems that only the locals know about. They lined up a SeaPlane tour for us to see the San Juan Islands and a quick trip to Victoria Island to see the capital building and beautiful gardens. I was so impressed with how responsive and professional this travel agency is. I have recommended them to my friends and family and they were also impressed. This is truly a one-stop-shop when it comes to travel. I'm never going to use another online booking agency again, these guys are the best in travel hands down.

Very clean and efficient ferry ride. They charge you $95 CAD, from Tsawwassen to Victoria and…read moreanother $95 CAD back. Everything is very clean and orderly upstairs too. There are snacks and cozy spots to sit. Occasionally, you'll see whales! It's great and everyone is so NICE! P.S. You cannot sit in your car, while the ferry is moving!

Taking the ferry between Vancouver and Victoria, British Columbia, shouldn't be so confusing, but…read moreit was for me. I started at the wrong "ferry terminal" that was for cruise ships only. I don't think it should be named a "ferry" terminal when it's a CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL. Well, we learned quickly and drove about an hour to this Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal. We didn't have reservations, but luckily we're able to board as "walk-ins". The ride was uneventful. There was a gift shop, cafeteria, and restrooms available. We had brought snacks, so we ate on board. We were able to walk around the outside of the ferry after we parked our car and made a note of what level and what stairway were closest. Overall, it was an alright experience. We know what to do next time!

From start to finish--ticket purchase, boarding, departure, and arrival--the whole experience was seamless and well organized. The ferry itself is spacious with plenty of seating, both indoor and outdoor areas, so it never felt cramped. There's room to walk around, relax, enjoy the views, grab a bite to eat, and even browse a small gift shop. It felt more like part of the journey than just transportation. Food options onboard were okay--nothing memorable, but decent enough if you need something during the crossing. Overall, a comfortable, stress-free way to travel and a great start to a Victoria Island getaway.

Review #2 for 2026…read more We used the ferry to take a day trip to Victoria while in Vancouver. The ferry is big! You can even drive your own car on the ferry! There is plenty of seating!! No need to rush on board to be one of the first ones seated. Unless you plan on sleeping the entire trip, you will most likely be changing seats at some point. We sure did! We went to different places to get different views. There is both inside and outside seating. Sitting outside can get very cold and windy depending on the season. We went during mid-May and it was very cold and windy outside. Only went out for a little bit to look around and take pictures. They have a cafe inside and the prices are actually pretty decent. Food is premade, so I do not think you can customize very much. They just scoop it like at a cafeteria. The ferry itself is very affordable. I think it converted to about $25 round trip per person for the ferry. If you bring a car, it believe it does cost significantly more. If you get there early, like we did, you can also ask to board an earlier ferry as to not wait around. We were not thinking properly and refused to pay the few bucks to get on the earlier ferry and instead waited around for about an hour. They also tell you to get there and check in an hour before your ferry. Trust me, that is not necessary. There was other people who go there early like we did and we had to wait in the check in area. You were not allowed to go past the entrance to the inside waiting area until it was close to boarding time, like 15 minutes before. The inside waiting area has bathrooms and a store like cafe with snacks and coffee. After waiting, we regretted not paying the extra few bucks to just board on an earlier ferry so we could get going and have more time in Victoria! The trip takes about 1.5 hours each way. I do not know how much parking is here as we took an uber (expensive ~$90 EACH way) from downtown Vancouver. Know that this place is pretty far from downtown Vancouver and takes nearly an hour to get to!! They also have public transit that comes here for a fraction of the cost, but we had a group and a 14 month old so we did not want to navigate public transit and deal with transfers to get here. However, once you get to Victoria, there is a public bus you can take for a few dollars that will take you directly downtown and is way cheaper than a $60 uber ride. It will take about 45 minutes from the ferry station to downtown Victoria when you arrive. Next time we will rent our own car in Vancouver, ubers are expensive in Vancouver. Anyways, the ferry ride itself is pretty smooth. I have read that some people spotted whales, but there were no whales spotted during our ferry ride. Would I go on this ferry again? Yes! I plan on coming back to Vancouver in the future and I do plan on going back to Victoria as we did not have enough time to explore the island. I think the ferry is the only way to get here unless you arrive by certain cruise ships that stop in Victoria. However, the ferry is a very affordable way to get to Victoria. It is also very easy to navigate. It is just far from downtown Vancouver.
