Transportation from Seattle to Vancouver BC
 
What's a good way to get from Seattle to Vancouver BC in January with no car? Has anyone taken the Greyhound bus or Amtrak? I once took a small shuttle bus on this route but forget the name of it. Thanks!

Amtrak, two trains and a couple of buses daily, also Greyhound, Quick Shuttle (from the airport) or Bolt Bus.

The trains are the most scenic, also the most expensive, and sometimes in winter mudslides close the tracks (so train pax are bused.) Bolt Bus usually the cheapest, but no station per se, just a pick-up point near the International District bus tunnel/light rail station.

takeaway7,

I took an Amtrak bus last year from Seattle's King Street Station to Vancouver's Pacific Central Station. Be aware that some of Amtrak's options are indeed buses not trains. It went pretty smoothly.

Best wishes, Daniel
