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.

    Extremely entertaining tour, but as many have already pointed out, it is a long day. But, enjoy every minute and relax! Who knows if you will ever be back to take in the lovely scenery, the fun ferry ride, and the pretty city of Victoria? Butchart Gardens in the fall? Spectacular!!! Ocean was a great tour driver. The coach was very comfortable. We highly recommend this adventure. Simply not having to deal with a car and the ferry is worth it!

    This tour was a welcome surprise. Didn’t know much about Butchart Gardens to be honest. Our tour bus driver, Ocean was the best. Had about 3 hours at the garden and about 1.5 hours in the Parliament area. Wish we would have had more time to explore Victoria.

    Beautiful gardens , well maintained and manicured . Only thing is that it’s far from Vancouver where we stayed, one of the restaurants was closed so lines for food were long and we were only allowed 2 hours to explore the huge place which was not enough
