Does any one knows if the train from the airport line will be opened as I heard # versions. (some says it is opened already some says it will open in March 2010) Also is there a card that allow access on transport on both Skytrain/Metro-subway and the river boats. I know that there is a tourist card for the skytrain but I am not sure if it is valid on all transportation. (I prefer to have a card as if you do not have small change it is more practical!) Thanks for your help any further tips on local transportation apart from Taxis and tuk-tuks are all welcomed! enjoy your day Isabelle [edited by frenchfrog at 2009-10-15 15:50] --- "It is far more better to have seen it once than to have heard about it a thousand time."

We really enjoyed the water taxis and ferries! They were quick and it is a neat way to see the city! I would heartily recommend those! --- Life is not measured by the breaths you take but by the moments that take your breath away.
