These affiliated transportation sites are included separately from the official tourism resources above. Use them when you are comparing a private chauffeur, black car, limousine or door-to-door Whistler transfer.
Disclosure: these transportation properties are affiliated with this publication. They are not official tourism authorities. We keep them in a separate section so readers can distinguish live public information from commercial transportation options.
Why this guide links out so often
A travel guide should help you make decisions. It should not pretend that a static article is the best place to verify a road closure, transit fare, lift schedule or park advisory. We summarize the planning logic and send changing details back to the authority that controls them.
That is also why we avoid copying huge tables of operating hours or prices. Those age quickly and create false confidence.
