These little boats are a great way to get around the False Creek area of Vancouver. From Yaletown to Vanier Park to name just 2 stops they are quite reasonable, a definate alternative to buses.

Fast, regular and cheap way to move around Granville island and neighbouring areas. We used these little taxi ferries several times to cross the waterways.

just a spur of the moment on hearing someone talking about it, but jumped on a little water taxi and had a trip up False Creek! had a nosey at the 2 storey boat houses that line along one side of the creek(about 10 of them). lovely unexpected journey.

I always take visitors down to Granville Island to board the Aquabus for a tour of False Creek. It's a great way to see this exciting part of the city and all the better if you do it around sunset on a lovely day

Took the aquabus because we just walked the seawall all the way to Granville Island. It was a longer walk then expected and there were no Car2Go's around. For the both of us it was around $7.50 I believe and the ride was quick and fun. We took a lot of pictures and enjoyed the water view on the short...
