FAQ
Q: How do I get to your NorthVan GreenTour pickup location?
A: Our pickup location (in front of the Bean Around the World Café) is 25 metres (or yards) west of the intersection of Carrie Cates Court and Lonsdale in North Vancouver.
From Vancouver, travelers should take the SeaBus across to Lonsdale Quay (ask anyone for directions). After arriving at the North Vancouver side, they should go through the public market (to the right after exiting the SeaBus) to the café (123 Carrie Cates Court).

Q: Your NorthVan GreenTour looks really cool, but I am deathly terrified of heights and suspension bridges. Is the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge mandatory? Or is it possible to skip it and meet everyone on the other side some other way?
A: You can also cross at Twin Falls Bridge. Or, if you prefer, you can hang out at the Ecology Centre. It’s quite interesting, and many people choose not to cross the bridge.
Q1: Do you really run on veggie oil?
A1: Yes.
Q2: Then why do I see you putting diesel in your van?
A2: The veggie oil system we use is a two tank system. We start and stop on diesel to get the engine hot, then the vehicle switches over automatically to veggie oil when it is hot enough.
