  • Ladt Day if Christmas decoration in Butchards Garden

    Ken is a very knowledgable guide. He also changed the itinerary according to the opening times of Butchard Gardens which was in the afternoon. It was enough time to explore Victoria and the Gardens. The story Ken told about the beginning of the Butchard Gardens was interesting, seeing it was developped by Jenny Butchard who got bored being alone while her husband was out in the field. Iann following making money of it and also extending it.

  • Excellent experience on a day tour to Victoria

    Edward has been a wonderful tour guide throughout the trip. He ensures all of us including my young kids (5&3) are well taken care of and making our trip seamless and comfortable. His service is excellent and has very good knowledge of the history behind the places of interest that we visited.

  • Highly recommend!

    What a lovely late-November escape from Vancouver! The tour felt rich and fun from start to finish. Butchart Gardens was stunning, even in the cooler season, and the guide made everything lively with great tips and local history. The vehicle was clean and cozy, which made the whole day super comfortable. We got a nice mix of sightseeing—Chinatown, Inner Harbour, Beacon Hill Park—and still had time to wander and enjoy the views. A super smooth, friendly, and refreshing way to see Victoria in one day. Would totally book again!
