Shuttle Services in Surrey

This may be a shot in the dark...

I'm looking for a private shuttle service that can transport ~30 people at a time to and from a wedding venue to a hotel (about 15 min drive). I can only seem to find limos and party buses for hire. I know in Surrey there are more than a few shuttle services for berry farms to transport workers to pick berries, but I don't know if they are owned by the farms themselves.

Anyone have any leads? Thanks!

You don't want to be riding in a berry farm bus. Charter a regular bus.

I agree with MG1.. you don't want the most memorable part of the wedding to be when everyone packed onto the berry picker bus

Most of those busses are owned by the farms.

Rent a school bus

School busses are NOT built for adults. I highly recommend you don't do that. I made this mistake once, and never heard the end of it.

I've used companies that charter regular coaches, like the greyhound style. I think that's your best option. Not sure if they do it around vancouver but people like charter bus lines, and stuff have worked with me in the past.

Give em a call. If they say they can't do it, just ask if they know a company that may, usually they will have good options.

You're part of an organizing committee for a wedding and you're willing to transport your well dressed guests in a dirty ass berry van?!

Take pics and keep us updated.

Just google chartered bus in Vancouver and give the results a call/email. Honestly most chartered bus companies in Vancouver are pretty good. It boils down to the price and availability. Also, it doesn't matter if there are bus companies based in Maple Ridge or not, they'll just drive to your location and transport you all to your predetermined destination.

Or, he wants to teach the young ones the importance of a good education and the desire to do better........ "See? Do you want to ride this kind of bus for the rest of your life?"
