Private cross-border transfers

Two cities, one comfortable journey

No connecting flight, no bus, no train timetable. Just the car, the road and the time to work or rest.

Hermes Travel drives clients between Vancouver and Seattle for business meetings, flights out of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, cruises, concerts, games and weekends away.

The route follows Highway 99 south to the border and Interstate 5 into Washington. Most of the variation in journey time is the border itself, so we plan departure times around it.

Return trips and Seattle to Vancouver pickups are available too, including from Sea-Tac.
