What are people saying about Victoria

Michael_D, May 2026

Ken picked 8 of us girls...

Ken picked 8 of us girls at the cruise terminal in a beautiful van and drove us to Butchart Gardens. Along the way and back he gave us a city tour and was very informative and funny at the same time. He even picked us up early and gave us extra time. He then dropped us off at the Empress Hotel. The gardens are very beautiful and worth the trip. I would totally recommend Ken as a tour guide.

Christine_R, May 2026

Great tour

This was a fantastic tour. We were on a cruise and they picked us up (on time) near the ship, which was so convenient. The tour guide and owner, Coleen, gave us a tour of Victoria City that included all the highlights. She gave us opportunities to get out of the van for photos and "rest stops." Then we went to Butchart Gardens (entrance ticket included). On the way she told us lots about the history of the gardens and the family who own it. After the gardens, she told us more about Victoria, as we headed back and gave us options for drop-off. Overall, it was a great day and very reasonable. Highly recommend! ps we appreciated that she didn't fill every seat, so we were more comfortable than we have been on other tours. Plus she's been in business for more than 20 years.

Victoria Guided Food and History Tour

Robye_L, Apr 2026

Try out this unique, local food in history tour!

We got to spend a full day in Victoria, BC, so having already coordinated my High Tea at The Empress this afternoon, I found a unique, fun food/history tour beforehand, run by Andy, the owner of A Taste of Victoria Food Tour. There were about 10 people who started at Phillip’s Brewing & Malting Co., where we started with a sampling of their famous meatball sandwich (I had a vegetation chickpea sampling); we meandered the Chinatown alleys and Market Square; stopping at Friends & Family Bake, a Filipino bakery; Chimac Korean Pub & Fried Chicken, a Korean chicken restaurant; Shanzee’s Old Town, where we sampled some divine biscuits & grits; and even got some fresh Matcha Lemonade at Just Matcha Tea Shop, ending the tour at Rogers’ Chocolate, a favorite of the late Queen Elizabeth…and varies the stops somewhat based on the grout and the day, having about 13 businesses he likes to coordinate and promote @atasteofvictoriafoodtours @hollandamericaline @victoria_city_canada @phillipsbeer @shanzeesoldtown @rogerschocolates1885 @justmatchateashop

Butchart Gardens Shuttle Bus

The pick up, on the street in front of the Fairmont Empress and drop off at the Garden entrance was very convenient. We were able to purchase tickets to the gardens at the kiosk where we checked in for the shuttle. Our driver (Cleon) was very nice and shared lots of fun facts both to and from the Gardens. Sit on the top at the front for the best views.

What a great way to explore the city!

Tour guide and bikes were top notch. I upgraded to an e-bike (first time on e-bike) which worked better for my experience with some of the inclines in the tour and keeping up. The tour route was perfect and we saw and learned a lot about the city. We had so much fun we returned the next day and rented bikes on our own and explored more, My future bike rentals will be e-bikes!

Private Deluxe Tour of Victoria & to Butchart Gardens (5 hrs)

Joanne_E, Jul 2025

Beautiful gardens!

Tour picks up right at the pier, our tour guide Linda was right there on time waiting with a sign with our name on it. She asked us if we had any other specific things we wanted to see and we mentioned wanting to see the Castle, she suggested we see that first since it was in a different area than the gardens. She took us also to see the tallest totem pole and a beautiful park with Sequoia trees. Then we went to the Butchart gardens which was amazing! Linda was very knowledgeable about the town and gave us lots of info while driving us around. The van was very comfortable and had booster seats if needed for the kids.

Victoria Zipline Adventure Tour

Karen_M, Jun 2025

One of the best tourist activities I've done.

I've been traveling a lot lately and this was one of the best, most affordable experiences. The guides were wonderful, there was very little down time (no sitting on a bus for hours, no stretching out an activity to justify the price). Some may feel a little frightened (I did on my first zip) but that passes after the first.
