Q: I'm flying to Seattle next month, and then I'm planning on visiting Victoria & Vancouver. I heard it's difficult to drive in Vancouver, because of all the traffic and expensive parking. Should I leave the car at the hotel and use the public transportation (I'm traveling with my wife and 5 yr. old son).
A: Use your car. Yes, Vancouver has it's traffic problems but nothing that can't be dealt with. If you decide to take an organized tour then by all means, leave your car at the hotel. If you do decide to drive about the city try to avoid peak times such as between 7 and 9 AM and 4 to 6 PM and you should have no problem. Be aware that once you pass through the border you will be on Highway 99 which is a freeway. It will slow down as you approach the tunnel under the Fraser River into Richmond and then again after you drive over the Oak Street bridge as the freeway ends at that point and the road becomes a 6 line street. Have fun.
