Ferry Vancouver to Seattle???

[cruising diva]

My friend is taking a round trip cruise from Vancouver. His daughter lives in Seattle and after the cruise he wants to take a ferry there but can't find any info on how/where etc.Has anyone done this from Canada Place? It seems he has to go from CP to Pier 66 where ever that is. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

There are no ferry's from Vancouver to Seattle; neither city is on an Island, you can drive between them.

Drive; 2.5 - 5 hours, depending on border crossing times

The best way to Seattle following a cruise is via a bus company called Quick Shuttle that will take your friend direct form the pier to Seattle - cost approx $50. CAD pp - travel time approx 3 hours. The bus makes only 2 stops in Seattle one in downtown and one at the airport.

Depending upon your schedule, I am not sure that Quick Shuttle is better than the Amtrak train but here is a link to the shuttle for your convenience.
