5.00We had a great afternoon with Lindsey as our guide! She knows and loves Victoria. We saw parts of the city we would have missed without the pickle boat ride. A special experience!
Afternoon fun

3.00The best part was our guide and staying with the same people, making new friends. The downside was the appetizers were so-so, very similar and I would have preferred to end the tour closer to where we started.

5.00We had a great tour, Lewis, our guide was fun and informative. The water taxi was great to get around and see the harbor sites.
Disappointing

2.00Arrived and waited by a 'Please wait to be seated' sign at the front of the first restaurant (not really a pub) with 6 other people from the tour. We were there about 15 mins, nice other people but not a welcoming or professional start! The 'guide' who was nice enough was sat with his back to the door chatting to 4 other tours participants! A green waistcoat but no other indication of being the tour! We then took forever to be served, paying individually for drinks takes time, the snacks provided were difficult to share (congealed nachos!) and we were then told we were running behind time! The next stop is cute, we sat in full sun and no facilitation occurred to try to find a better table. 'Snacks' were piles of wedges only, not even good ones and we were expected to tip for going to a counter, ordering a drink in a plastic cup and collecting it from another counter! Not sure what the 'service' was but we all did anyway! Next a hotel rather than a pub. Cocktail list presented. Cold sprouts as the 'snack'. The waitress added 18% tip on top of sales tax and came with the card machine which prompted a further request for a tip on top! (To each person individually again!) At this point the idea of having drinks included came up. Basically you are paying for 2 short water taxi rides! Last a noisy pub with screens all over on the corner of the tourist area, not exactly a 'hidden gem', nothing interesting drink wise and some white packet 'pittas' and 'hummus' was given. That was the end. It was all rather lacklustre and we all commented that some information about the sights or the city would have been appreciated. Even local specialities as the snacks! Might be just what you are looking for or not! I've done some brilliant bar/pub tours, this wasn't one of them! It wasn't awful, the guide was on his University holidays, he was pleasant. It was just uninspiring and not thoughtfully arranged.
