Coming from a city that has few mass transit options, I truly appreciate the Sky Train. Visiting…read moreVancouver for the first time, and we quickly learned how to get around the city using the Sky Train. The kiosks were easy to use to purchase our tickets. The day pass is an excellent value and we definitely got our money's worth as we traveled all over the city. The maps on the trains helped us plan our stops. The trains and stations are clean! One of the members of our group uses a walker, and each station featured a gate and elevator that made it very easy for a disabled person to use this public transportation.

Being a tourist in Vancouver is awesome for many reasons; the food, the cocktails, the sites, and…read moretheir amazing public transportation like the SkyTrain. SkyTrain sounds like a designer drug you'd see in a dystopian Sci-fi movie, but the only high this Skytrain gave me was the feeling of ease, when going from the airport to my hotel in downtown Vancouver. I wish they made public transportation that was this smooth all over the US and not just major cities. This train runs all over Vancouver and its outliers cities and is the preferred mode of transportation by locals. The maps are easy to figure out and there's no need to purchase a day pass. If you're just doing one or two quick trips. You can just tap your credit card on the entry turnstile and kaboom... you're cruising on the SkyTrain. Ready to chase the dragon called life? Then prepare to get lifted on the SkyTrain.

One of the original (Expo line) stations, on Royal Oak near Rumble…read more There is a passenger pickup area to the SE of the station, which is nice. This station is pretty old and dumpy. Pretty much unchanged since the 1980s. Futuristic look back then. Now it looks like a worn down space station. To be honest, the station itself isn't very good for several reasons. First, it doesn't actually span the road - the entrances are only on the E side. Secondly, the original station was obviously built without accessibility in mind. The staircases are narrow and steep. There are also no escalators. Looks like they added a ramp as part of a later series of renovations. Lastly, the platform area is pretty cramped. Yes it does the job, but it's definitely not one of the nicer stations in the network.

The platform is quite dated and can use a renovation besides the shiny new signs. Large parts of the metal latticework are dirty and rusty. The view of Lulu Island is actually worth checking out from the platform, as this station is located high up on a hill. This station has a bus loop attached. Very useful for getting to the heart of Richmond directly, instead of having to go all the way back to downtown Vancouver.

My wife and I were on holiday in the okanagan on the Hwy between osoyoos and Oliver when we were…read morerear ended by a planet express transport truck at over 100kms per hour on July 27th, 2020. The driver; Sarvpreet Mann, was speeding and recklessly driving his tractor and trailer, he hit us so hard that my 2016 F150 was pushed into on coming traffic resulting in a head on collision that spun my truck 180 degrees at which time we were hit again by the tow behind trailer of the tractor/truck. As a result of this accident, my truck was totalled, my wife and I suffered extensive soft tissue injuries in our necks, shoulders, backs and ribs. I had to have surgery on 4 tears in my left shoulder rotator cuff and my bicep tendon. The accident closed the Hwy down for 3.5 hours and everyone involved, except the trucker and the young child he was travelling with had to go to two separate hospitals. I'm putting this review up because of the recklessness and disregard that this transport driver had when driving his partially unloaded rig on a small highway in the middle of summer with a substantial amount of traffic. Recovery is going ok, as I just had my final surgery 11 weeks ago and am now in the recovery stage. As an automotive mechanic, my shoulder is now only at 75% fully recovered and this man's actions have altered and changed my ability to work and do my job. My wife is employed by the Law Society of British Columbia and has permanent issues with her back, neck and shoulders as a result of his carelessness. I would attach pictures of the accident that shoe the devastation but this platform doesn't support attached photos. This truck driver changed both of our lives in a negative way and we were not in the new icbc "no fault" insurance process but received and are still receiving a hybrid version of it that quite frankly is unsatisfactory.

We have been using Excel for transport within Vancouver and to/from Whistler for about a decade…read more We've used it for our individual family and a group as large as 24 in a private minibus. The booking process is easy, the manager Howie is responsive and easy to work with. The drivers are always on time and courteous. On our most recent trip, there was a terrible accident on highway 99 which delayed us 7 hrs! We had multiple families traveling on together in a large van, half children under the age of 8. The kids were going stir crazy and so were the parents. The person that was not frazzled at all was our driver Johan. He was with us the whole way, taking us to dinner in Squamish, driving us around town looking for a place to entertain the kids and wait for the roads to reopen. We ended up having to hang out at a Walmart for several hours. By the time we got to Whistler was about midnight, on a 5p planned arrival. Johan never stopped being courteous, kind, and friendly. I can't imagine how tired and frustrating the ordeal must have been for him, yet he never let it showed and it made the journey so much more pleasant despite the circumstances. We've never had a bad experience with Excel.
