Our Victoria & Butchart Gardens Tour is our most beloved day trip. The wild beauty of the Pacific Coast meets historic splendour in British Columbia’s lush oceanfront capital city of Victoria. During this tour, travel aboard BC Ferries, through Active Pass and along rugged island coastlines. Admire the Gulf Islands and take in the sea breeze from the deck, or enjoy the views from your warm seat inside the ferry. Once on Vancouver Island, your guide will drive you straight into the heart of Victoria, while providing commentary about the city’s history and surrounding areas. With your leisure time in Victoria’s Inner Harbour explore everything from artistic totem poles to the Parliament Buildings. Have the freedom to duck into museums, boutique shops and restaurants along cobblestone streets. Your tour guide is happy to suggest activities and lunch options.
A tour to Vancouver Island is not complete without a visit to the flawless Butchart Gardens showing 55 acres of floral displays. During the summer months, ask about our optional ‘Early Butchart Gardens Shuttle’ to spend a little more time at the Gardens, and a little less time in downtown Victoria.
Your tour concludes with a relaxing return sailing aboard BC Ferries.
Advised Clothing: Dress in layers. Comfortable walking shoes are advised. Don’t forget the fixings! Depending on the weather consider bringing sunscreen, sunglasses, hat, gloves and a waterproof outer layer. Any excess items can be stored in the vehicle while you’re exploring.
Accessibility: Minimal mobility is required. You may encounter some inclines, however, pathways are paved. There’s a lot to explore. Be prepared to do plenty of walking.
Our tours are run on comfortable mini-coaches seating up to 30 guests and offering great visibility. They are detailed after every tour and are outfitted with heating & air-conditioning for your comfort. Live tour commentary is conducted in English by our friendly, highly trained and award-winning Tour Guides. Hotel specific pick-up times are provided when reservations are confirmed.
