The drive, stop by stop
In order from Vancouver. Distances and times are approximate.
The right car for the season
May to September. Take the Corvette C8 Convertible with the roof down, or the C8 coupe with its roof panel stowed. The Urus is the choice if you want performance and space for four.
October to April. Winter tires or chains are legally required on Highway 99 north of Horseshoe Bay from October 1, and conditions can change quickly above Squamish. Choose the G63, the Urus, or a full-size SUV such as the Escalade ESV for a group with ski gear.
Before you go. Tell us you are heading to Whistler when you book; longer trips are cleared with us first. Check DriveBC for current conditions on the day.
