Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Do you run the Late Bus every night?
A. No we do not. Operating a late bus service may be an option during non-pandemic times the crowds visiting Tofino during the COVID-19 pandemic desiring late-night bus service have not been following social distancing guidelines or wearing masks, so we have suspended this service until we feel that it makes sense to resume this service.

Q. It doesn't feel very Tiki to me, it feels like a city bus. Why is it called the TikiBus?
A. If I had bottomless pockets you would not be asking me that question, but i understand your point. It will be done one day, but the Tikification of the bus will cost $$$ we do not have right now.

Q, Does the TikiBus have bike or surfboard racks?
A. Not yet. We need enough riders to require them to justify the cost of commercial bike or board racks. Bikes may be able to be brought on board if you let us know when you are booking your pick-up time and clean surfboards under 9 feet long can usually be accommodated.
