The views were amazing. We enjoyed it, but spent more times on the ferry and bus rides to and from, very little time for touring and break for lunch. Our tour guide messed up the Butchart Garden operating hours, we only had 45 minutes instead of 90 as advertised at the garden… very disappointed. Doesn’t worth the time and money!

The whole day was fascinating and well-paced. Victoria and the gardens were great. The ferry ride was beautiful. Even the drive was enjoyable thanks to Alex’s friendly and casual, but information-packed, stories.

Byron our guide was very friendly knowledgeable and helpful. My wife and I were celebrating our 25th anniversary on the day of this tour and Bryson was very helpful with dining recommendations, helping take pictures, and even addressing a concern with the Buchard garden staff after my wife was asked to remove a hair bow that was made of white sheer material that resembled a veil. Other than that incident the tour was terrific and Byron made a long day fly by.

It was a lovely trip. Just exactly what it promised. Carole, our tourist guide, lead us through the whole trip with enjoyable stories with historical context. You can tell she enjoys what she does.

An excellent tour. It is a long day but when you are picked up and dropped back to your accommodation it all works seamlessly. Our main driver was Tim and he was excellent as a driver and gave us a very interesting commentary along the way. He was also helpful with suggestions of things to do and where to eat for our stop in Victoria. He also gave us some interesting facts about Butchart Gardens before arriving there in the afternoon which is definitely a great time to visit. It was a great day and I would highly recommend doing it.
