Taking BC Ferries longest ferry ride from Port Hardy on Vancouver Island to Prince Rupert in Northern BC. It’s a 15 hour ferry ride and I could not be more excited to see what it has to offer.
I have taken BC ferries all my life, but I have never been on this route. Although $$$, I think it’s worth it and such a different way to experience the north.
Come with me as I show you my experience on this full day ferry ride!!!

I remember in 1994 my family did this huge road trip of BC. We made it to Prince Rupert late. The next morning we got on the 15 hr cruise to Port Hardy, the ship was Queen Of The North. I spent a lot of time on the deck or looking out the windows. The part that stood out the most was watching dolphins jumping out of the water and trying to race the ship.

That sounds like a fantastic trip. I wish I got to see dolphins!

I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Japanese-American. Since 2012, Vancouver BC has been my favorite place to visit. I would visit Victoria more often, if I didn't have to take long ferries, and wait in long ferry lines. Since 2007, I have wanted to drive from Prince Rupert to Prince George, and back down to Vancouver. I discovered this Inside Passage ferry ride before the pandemic! What seems cool, is that it includes a bedroom, shower, and sink, where I can take naps! I have only ONE flaw as a human being, but it's a big one: I'm not a dog person. I hear that dogs are allowed on certain decks. Did you deal with dogs, when you took this ferry? I'm afraid that I'm going to waste a lot of this trip SLEEPING! If I lie down on the bed, I'm going to zonk out!!

@TravelWithTats Жыл бұрын

No dogs allowed on the upper decks. Dogs have to stay in the vehicle. And every 3hrs they allow people a 15min window to go check on their pets. :)

@@TravelWithTats I haven't watched all of your videos, but will continue to do so. You went by car on the ferry, so I assume that you drove East from Prince Rupert to Prince George. Yes, the ferry food is expensive, but heck, so is the cruise itself! But, maybe I'll get some Japanese foods "that will last," like edamame or tofu (who cares if it's cold, just that one or two times) back in Vancouver, before I head over. Or better yet, Vancouver Island should have a couple of Wendy's along the way: I have to diet better, and Wendy's is my go to place. The chili, low in fat, high in fiber (fiber is missing in so many peoples' diets, which controls blood sugar), is palatable even when cold. Maybe, a couple of salads and chilis to take on the ferry, can spare me having to splurge on the ferry food (although, I hear it's good). And, there should be Wendy's from Prince Rupert to Prince George, where I can neutralize my inevitable bad eating in Vancouver: Osushi and omanju.

I've lived on vancouver island most of my life and never took the port hardy ferry. We always just drove through BC to get to terrace. I wanna try this now!

Oh you must. It’s to nice not having to drive. And with the gas prices the way they are. Taking the ferry is cheaper than driving.

This makes the Ferries in Nags Head look micro sized to that thing! It only takes about 1 to 2 hours to get to Ocracoke Island. (That's as of right now thanks to emergency dredging that has to be done). Of course, the Swan Quarter to Ocracoke Island is longer but there is a Toll for it. In Virginia, the Williamsburg to Surry ferry is only 30 min long. It's also next to the Surrey nuclear reactor where I catch three-eyed fish all the time.

Thanks for making this video, the no wifi thing is great to know. So I’m curious, on the way back with no cabin how did that go? Think you could pull off a stealth camp in the van? Haha

@TravelWithTats Жыл бұрын

We were very lucky and were able to score some cabins. (We had put our name on the waitlist). And it is possible to pull a “stealth camp”. But google “2006 BC ferries Disaster”. May change your mind

@@TravelWithTats Nice! Maybe, it's because of my time mostly in Vancouver, but I perceive that there isn't a large Latino/Latinx population in British Columbia. At least, not compared to East Indian and Persian. I began to realize over the past few years, that if I travel deeper into Canada, I will see a LOT of First Nations people, not just Caucasian (as I initially perceived).
