We toured with Jessica. She was bubbly and excited to make our day at the Butchart Garden and Victoria memorable. She was prompt, picking us up/ dropping us off at our hotel hassle-free. Her commentary on the way to our destinations was informative, educational and enjoyable. We learned a lot about the culture of Vancouver, how it was settled, the value in recognition its indigenous people and their history/culture. Jessica made the trip more accommodating to those of us on tour by offering suggestions to highlight the “must see” aspects of the Gardens and our tour of Victoria to make the most of our time spent there. During the entire tour, Jessica was polite, extremely personable, professional in handling all of the details of our trip, and a delight to spend the day with !! She absolutely made our day memorable !!

Too much history repeated by your guide. Loved seeing Victoria and the beautiful buildings and flowers. The Burchart Gardens were beautiful but it was too warm and late in the day for doing a lot of walking. It was too long a day and didn’t get back to hotel until 9:30.
Excellent tour guide
