5.00Our tour guide, “Fish” was extremely friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable, we greatly enjoyed his stories and perspective of Victoria’s history. The tour sites and bites were well planned and a great introduction to this wonderful city. Even though it was a cool day, we were not cold as the stories took us to another world where weather was not a problem…
Great guide, lots of storytelling with snacks

5.00Book this tour - you will be glad you did. We had a wonderful tour guide - Fish. He went above and beyond, so knowledgeful, kind, funny and interesting. We thought the tour was also great value for money. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Victoria. Do it on your first day (unlike us!) and you will get lots of useful tips for other great things to do in Victoria.
Perfect tour!
