I’ve taken taxis in Vancouver several times and would recommend them over any city's taxis. Clean cars, polite drivers, and the exact fare as expected.
I’m mystified by the statements here.
Not in my opinion. We were a family of three, no strollers or wheelchairs, and I didn’t like my Canada Line experience. Confusing ticket kiosk, not really traveler friendly onboard, inexplicable seemingly-random slowdowns,and then you still have to walk to your hotel with your bags. No thanks.
We took a taxi for the way back.
