Advantages: very helpful staff Disadvantages: 20 minutes to downtown
YEG is located south-west of the city of Edmonton, approx. 20 minutes form the downtown core. Arrivals are on the second floor, and luggage pick up is on the main floor(arriving from Toronto). Pay telephones are near the luggage pick up. Staff were very attentive to my needs. There are several levels of parking less than 50 feet away. An international airport, flights can connect to nearly any major port worldwide. Signs are clearly marked, it is quite difficult to get lost. The taxi fares are decent, perhaps $30 canadian, but shuttles are also available at lower cost. Because I was in quite the hurry, I did not have the time to search for restaurants or cafes in the airport. If you find this at all helpful, please feel free to let me know. Thank you. ...
Advantages: Clean, good transport, Canadians Disadvantages: The *Deep* Midwinter
them know up front as you can?t take an Alberta rented vehicle into British Columbia without some paperwork.
You can just about do Jasper and Banff as day trips, but again it?s a long day, and the Yellowhead highway, which gets you there, was described in my guide as ?scenically challenged? and they weren?t wrong. When you get to the Rockies however you really notice the difference. Don?t even think about these trips in winter, up to the 1st March you are not supposed to go into the National Parks unless in a Four Wheel Drive vehicle.
OK I?ve left it ?til last but the WestEdmonton Mall is one of the principal reasons people visit. Yes it is HUGE, yes it does have 800 shops and ?n? thousand car parking spaces (don?t forget where you left it) but at the end of the day it?s a mall. I?ll agree we don?t have one in the UK where you can ...
Advantages: relaxed and friendly Disadvantages: None
I visited Edmonton a couple of years ago, and, first thoughts where that it wasn't a bad little town.
Firstly, as a predstrian, there wasn't a single part of the city that I couldn't get to on foot, which was great. The downtown shopping isn't too good, but you do have the WestEdmonton Mall, which is just outside the town. Here you have everything... Literally!
The town also hosts many festivals during the summer, and the city has a nice relaxed atmosphere. I never felt threatened by anything and felt relaxed with the kind people.
For those brits abroiad, the town also has a few British pubs, some of them themed, some not. Well, you travel thousands of miles and get British beer!
South of the river, there is a more traditional shopping area, which is quite funky and also has lots of places to eat!
Don't believe what ...
