 whistler travel info
As long as you arrive and depart at Vancouver Airport between 11 AM and 3 PM on the camp start and finish dates, our staff will meet you at your gate or as you come out of customs from an international flight. On the end date of a camp, we bring all departing campers to the airport by 9:30 AM.
If possible, you should schedule your departing flight to leave as early as 11:30 AM (but no later than 3 PM) so that you don't have to hang out at the airport with us for too long (you'll probably go crazy with envy while you meet all the new campers just starting their week).
Anyone that needs to arrive or depart outside the arrival/departure days and times can see the upgrades on our sign-up form or make special arrangements with us. If you are thinking of driving to Whistler, you are welcome to meet us at the airport during our scheduled pickup and drop-off times. Whistler is only a 2hr drive from Vancouver via Highway 99 which runs straight to Whistler.
For Those Driving to Whistler on their
Own
We are located in the Tantalus Lodge
for the duration of camp. The address is:

4200 Whistler Way

V0N 1B4

Young
Campers Traveling Alone
We
have many young campers that travel
alone to our camp. You can request "Unaccompanied
Minor" service from all the airlines.
They will make sure that your child
stays in the care of the Airlines until
the approved pickup person picks up
the child at the other end. You would
simply register our camp as the receiving party. The cost
is minimal and some airlines do this
for free. You can also request the same
service for the return portion so that
they stay with airline staff right from
when we check them in on the departure
day.
Minors traveling alone to our camp should carry our
travel form
From Vancouver, access to Whistler, which is 120km (75 miles) north on Highway 99, is available by car, limousine, van, scheduled bus, train, or chartered helicopter/float plane.
