No matter your travel purpose, the bus between Seattle and Vancouver is slower and less picturesque than Amtrak train routes. Both Pacific Central Station in Vancouver and King Street Station in Seattle rest in the heart of each city, providing immediate access to metro buses, taxis, hotels and popular attractions.
