5.00The BEST way to experience Victoria and the gardens. We visited at the very end of the fall tour season, so had a smaller group that felt like a private tour. Our guide, Tyko, was very knowledgeable, willing to answer questions, and entertained us with so much information! We enjoyed getting to see some of the city sites without needing to navigate traffic, and the fall leaves in the gardens were beautiful. Our favorite is the Japanese garden, and it did not disappoint! 10/10 would recommend!
Excellent TOUR!

5.00Had a great experience getting a tour of the city and then going to butchard gardens. Our host was wonderful.. He had a lot of knowledge about unusual things in Victoria. We had two and a half hours at the gardens and wandered around by ourselves which was great. The weather was perfect. Would definitely recommend this tour.

5.00I had heard about these gardens previously, but could not have imagined how gorgeous and scenic these gardens are. It's like a world marvel, and we visited when the seasons were turning, so there were no roses in bloom. That did not take away from the wonderful experience. There was great chowder on site to purchase along with a tea shop and restaurant. I wanted to buy all the fine napkins etc from the gift shop...and the vintage carousel was also a treat! A must see for sure!
Must see great experience.

5.00Nice not having to drive as Victoria was a lot bigger than we expected & traffic heavy at times. Fast track entry into the gardens was a bonus & a nicely balanced tour at reasonable price
