Overview
Visit and experience Victoria, British Columbia’s capital city on this full day narrated tour. We start from downtown Vancouver and travel south through the city and drive on-board a BC Ferry for a 90-minute voyage across the Georgia Strait through the scenic Southern Gulf Islands.
The tour continues to the world famous Butchart Gardens which is a National Historic Site of Canada. You’ll find remnants of the original cement plant, millions of bedding plants in over 900 varieties within the over 50 acres of stunning gardens. Enjoy 2 leisurely hours and fully explore one of the world’s premier floral show gardens.
After the gardens, head to downtown Victoria through Canada’s oldest China Town and the scenic Victoria Harbour—including the Inner Harbour—one of the most beautiful harbours in the world. You will have additional free time to explore the local area; stroll the Inner Harbour, take in the thriving arts and cultural scene, visit the historic Empress Hotel or the Royal BC Museum.
