    Victoria is amazingly beautiful. Too much time in gardens and not enough time to explore the rest. Would recommend.

    Davis has an amazing knowledge of Vancouver, Victoria, and the surroundings. Both current and history I would take this your again but I would not leave a bag from the Butchart Gardens gift shop on the bus.

    The bus picked us up prompty at our hotel and drove directly onto the ferry. The gardens were beautiful but we could have used more time there as 90 minutes made it rushed. Victoria downtown as well. We had a little over two hours there before heading back to the ferry and back to the hotel. The driver/guide did a great job. Overall it was a long 12 hour day with over 7 hours of that time on a bus or ferry. Just so ya know.

  • Fantastic day!

    Steve was very friendly and his dad jokes kept us amused along the way. He was very knowledgeable across a wide range of topics and was happy to take questions from the group. The morning ferry ride was really lovely, weaving through the small islands on the way. The Butchart Gardens were just lovely and the couple of hours spent there were just sufficient. Time in Victoria wasn’t long enough to explore all the points of interest, but there was only so much time available for a full, single day trip to Vancouver island. If you have more time then stay the night in Victoria and spend two days minimum in the south of the island.
