Vancouver British Columbia in 48Hours - Best way to see Vancouver. My mom, sister and I had a 24-Hour Pass. We got off the bus at each stop. I can’t say 1 stop is better than the other. Food, sights, shopping and people watching were enjoyable all day long.

View of Vancouver with Hop-On Hop-Off - Stanley Park was beautiful and Granville Island had lots of shops and places to eat. The commentary about Vancouver places was good but could have shared more information. Great way to get an overall viewpoint of the city and pick places to spend more time.

Long wait time - My sister and I had a day to spend in Vancouver and took Hop-on hop-off bus to explore the city. We had the flight back to Toronto in the evening so before we bought the tickets we asked about the last tour time and frequently. After the second hop off we had to wait over one hour (instead of 20 minutes) for the bus. I made several phone calls after about 40 minutes wait, to the dispatch to make sure the bus will come to stop #11. First time was ensure busses are still touring , 2nd time - bus was at stop #6 (never came to stop#11); 3rd time after +/- 60 minutes wait bus was at stop #9. I was even advised to take a taxi to the airport to make sure we are not late for the flight. I would advise to give yourself about 2 hrs extra if you need to be somewhere on time and absolutely DO NOT count on a last bus... it might not come. We were lucky, had some extra time, but wouldn't trust the service schedule.

Hop on the Hop off and stay off - Buses are old, extremely uncomfortable and unreliable. A modern city like Vancouver deserves better. Felt like we were back in the 70’ probably around the time when stock was new(ish) Bad experience today, bus broke down, next one came fairly soon after (20mins so ok) but this one had its heater jammed on and it was 25*c outside. Driver basically shrugged his shoulders and got off the bus with the guide saying they were going off shift for a break - we left and walked it was safer! Not a pleasant experience

Do not recommend - Purchased online for September 1st - only one bus running for entire route! As a result if you get off next pick up in 90 minutes. They packed the bus to the brim- loud and unpleasant experience. As a result we paid 100$ for a 20 min uncomfortable ride- got off and took Uber. Rip off. Just book with grey line hop on - at least they have many buses running.

Horrible experience - I was traveling with a friend who uses a walker. Only one of the buses is handicapped accessible - the rest are rickety old school buses with very uncomfortable seats, no air conditioning, poor sound systems, and malfunctioning audio tours. The drivers are also grumpy and not helpful. Terrible quality for the price.
