Gardens were spectacular,...
Gardens were spectacular, Victoria was fun & beautiful. Our guide Byron was absolutely great, knowledgeable, funny, & provided excellent recommendation for restaurants & things to do. Loved that we were on a tour but had our own free time to spend it how we wanted!

Must do experience!
This was an awesome experience! We zoomed around on the water, getting to see cargo ships, Point Atkinson Lighthouse, sea lions, and west van up close! Learning interesting facts about the area from our amazing tour guide as we go. Perfect way to see Vancouver in a short and fun filled time!

Worth every minute of the 12 hour day to see Vancouver Island!
We just completed an Alaskan cruise on Royal Caribbean’s Ovation of the Seas which ended in Vancouver. We had never been to this city before and we wanted to see as much as we could (to get a flavor of the area) in the 3 days we had here before returning home. We spent much of the first 2 days seeing as much in the downtown area as we could (and we did a great job, I must say). Vancouver is amazing, clean, beautiful, and very young! The weather was pretty nice, but nothing could compare to Sunday, our last day. We decided to book at trip to Vancouver Island to visit both Buchart Gardens and Windsor, the capital city of British Colombia. We knew it was going to be a long day, but still wanted to get out of the city and see more of the area. We are so glad we booked this excursion. First, our driver Ryan was amazing. He reached out the day before to make sure we were prepared, and knew exactly where to meet (and what to expect). He even provided his cell phone in case we had more questions. The day of the trip was clear, crisp and all blue skies the whole day…you could see “as far as the eye could see,” literally. From the information Ryan provided, to the bus and Ferry ride, everything went smoothly. We were able to have thoughtful conversations about the local economy, future excursion possibilities in B.C., and unique area history. If you have not been to this area, this excursion is a must. The Butchart Gardens are amount the most unique and beautiful we have seen…truly breathtaking. And Windsor is charming, and smacks of British and B.C. Charm. We also had a diversion to Beacon Hill Park, which is also quite beautiful. We have booked many Viator excursions around the world, and we have found them to be highly quality, reasonably priced, and worth the investment. We highly recommend both Viator and our tour guide, Ryan!

Great Escape
Great way to get closer to the mountains for better sense of the setting of Vancouver and environs. Plus to get off one’s feet after a lot of walking. Very pleasant staff and informative tour. (AND due to the World Cup setup nearby, we had difficulty getting dropped off at the right spot. Sent a message via the Viator app and they called us—and waited an extra 4 minutes past departure time for us!)

Excellent Day Excursion!
An extraordinary day! A wonderful balance between guided activities and free time to explore. Natalia was a wonderful tour guide, and our driver, Tai, was also wonderful. Everything ran on time and very professionally. The bus was very clean and comfortable as well! I would book again in a heartbeat!

We had an amazing day!...
We had an amazing day! This tour totally exceeded our expectations. Paul was an excellent tour guide and our visit to Stanley Park, Capilano bridge and Grouse Mountain areas were fantastic. We would 100% recommend this tour and hope to do it again next time we visit Vancouver. Thank you Paul!!

One of the best tours I've done
The seaplane to Victoria was amazing with awesome views over the gulf islands - plenty of photo opportunities. Smooth take off and landing - well done to the pilots. Victoria is an interesting town and there was plenty of opportunity to explore. Walking was easy and I covered a big area and saw the main attractions in the time allotted. A map and instructions where to meet the bus was provided. The ferry ride back to Vancouver was calm and clear. It gave a different view of the islands and more photo opportunities. Overall, the trip was well organised, efficiently run and operated. I highly recommend.

Discovering Vancouver’s Waterfront with False Creek Ferries
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Had a wonderful time on the Vancouver False Creek Ferry Tour! The ride was smooth, the views were exceptionally beautiful, and it was such a relaxing way to see the city from the water. Huge shout-out to Captain Rusty! — his narrative was both entertaining and informative, and he made the whole experience extra special. Definitely one of the highlights of my Vancouver trip! 🫶🫶🫶

Exploring Vancouver by Water: Hop-On Hop-Off Granville Island Ferry Adventure
It was such a fun and relaxing way to explore Vancouver. The views from the water were beautiful, and the stops made it easy to visit places like Granville Island, David Lam Park and Yaletown. The boats came often — so convenient! Definitely worth getting the day pass.

We all enjoyed our cruise tremendously due to:

Wonderful sailing trip. Beautiful, spotless sailboat. Great captain & first mate. Snacks & beverages offered. Lots of interesting conversation and an especially nice touch meeting Frederick the Boat Cat. A great way to spend some time in lovely Vancouver.
