Victoria Guided Food and History Tour

Elaine_S, Apr 2026

Fabulous Food Tour.

Our guides name was Andy and we had an excellent time with him. He took us to amazing places for a mix of bites to eat from sweet to savory. At each of the restaurants Andy had each of the chefs come out to explain the dish and give a short talk about there restaurants. As we moved from restaurant to restaurant we crossed through a variety of various different ally’s, Andy giving us a history of the ally’s background. Overall we had bites of meatballs, biscuits and gravy, Korean fried chicken, Philippino sweet bread and amazing Matcha drink. We had a great tour!

Third Reich Walking Tour Munich

jon_h, Mar 2026

Entertaining and Informative Walking Tour from a Great guide.

Dan (Den?) was welcoming, enthusiastic, entertaining, happy to take questions and deviate from the script to encourage participation. Extremely interesting tour delivered from the perspective of the many groups affected by this period in history, including his own family's first hand experiences.

COMBO Victoria City Tour & Butchart Gardens & Entry Tix

Anita_S, Mar 2026

Great guide and Wonderful Tour

The tour was wonderful, our guide Tyco shared many interesting facts and stories about Victoria. He toured us around the city in a safe and leisurely way which was very enjoyable, and then we headed to the Butchart Gardens for a lovely long walk through the spectacular vistas. Thanks for a wonderful time!

Munich Ghosts and Spirits Evening Walking Tour

Ashlee_C, Feb 2026

A great evening, highly recommend!

We had a great evening with Hannah Maria. She was charismatic and enthusiastic in her story telling and love for Munich ghost adventures. We are glad to have done this on our first evening in the city as she also pointed out places we might like to come back and visit along our way. Highly recommend this tour.

Ghostly Walking Tour in Victoria

Sunny_L, Jan 2026

Amazing Ghost Walks tour!...

Amazing Ghost Walks tour! The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and a fantastic storyteller. He was clearly very familiar with the history and stories, and he brought them to life in a way that was engaging, entertaining, and easy to follow. Great pacing, lots of personality, and just the right mix of history and mystery. A fun and memorable way to experience the city, highly recommend!

Munich City Walk and Oktoberfest Tour With Beer Tent Reservation

Andrea_M, Oct 2025

You need to do this!

Do it! Unfortunately don’t remember the name of our guide but she was fantastic (she gave us her card but of course I lost it - I believe she said she used to live in London) but this tour was extremely well planned and gave us so much history of Oktoberfest. So many things I would’ve never known had we not done this, like that the position of a bow on a drindl means something! Being on a tour with others made it a lot of fun and we got to meet a bunch of people. Amazing and of course great beer!

The Butchart Gardens Express Shuttle from Downtown Victoria

MaryAnn_A, Oct 2025

Shuttle is very convenient! Gardens are great, go on 9:30 am bus for least crowds.

The “office” where you redeem your voucher is actually a little umbrella stand in front of the bus. Go on the 9:30 am bus. The gardens are the least busy at opening. It rained the day we went and it was great because a lot of people don’t go when it rains! Rain was intermittent. Don’t bring an umbrella. They have plenty of free see through umbrellas for you to use. Taking photos on cloudy day is also good. You don’t need to worry about shadows or sun in your wrong direction for photos. We were amazed at the number of flowers in bloom- dahlias, begonias. Impatiens, mums , amazing varieties of coleus, trees turning gold and orange, penstemons, blue salvia and lots of exotic plants. The bus is just a shuttle but the local driver Sarah gives an amazing tour and narration. Everyone tipped her because she was so good. Hot dogs in coffee shop are good! We were done touring and were ready go back at 12:30 . If you want to see the Japanese garden the most, walk there first because the paths are narrow and not enjoyable later when too many people show up at once. Great place to visit !

Victoria Half-Day Whale Watching Adventure with Free Photos

MaureenF_Y, Oct 2025

Great Day Whale Watching

This was a fabulous way to spend an afternoon. I was hoping to see Humpback Whales and Prince of Whales did not disappoint. We saw many Humpbacks and then an Orca (Janet Nielson) showed up and it was like a Christmas miracle (he's rarely seen). The crew (Megan and Janae) were informative and knowledgable and Michael provided fabulous pictures afterward (included with the price of the trip). A must see and do when visiting Victoria. PS Captain Richard and First Mate Sandy did a great job too.

Summer Victoria Whale Watching Tour on a Covered Vessel

DONNA_O, Oct 2025

Blown away!!!

Completely satisfied! Took the covered boat with an upper deck vs. the Kodiaks. Was worried because after I purchased it, some said the whale sightings don’t happen as often for the larger boats…BOY…were they wrong. Also, you get personal service from the knowledgeable crew on whale behavior; health and overall marine care. These guys (Ryan & Jake) made it that much more exciting! We had a “whale mugging”…means the engines are turned off because of the curiosity of a whale around our boat made us linger longer for as long as the creature wanted us to stay. The crew were even excited because they said it’s rare. They also said the fall time is when the whales are full and playful. They’ve spent the spring and summer feeding and will head back to warmer waters soon. We didn’t see orca, but had the pleasure of meeting a humpback up close. Highly recommend this trip!

Victoria Zodiac Boat Whale Watching Adventure

Judith_D, Sep 2025

Thumbs Up for Captain George

Well organised zodiac trip with enthusiastic and knowledgeable Captain George. We spotted humpbacks, close to the vessel, killer whales and sea lions hunting fish. George shared his photos with the group. A highlight of our holiday. Easy to find starting point, close to the Express Hotel / Tourist Office and 100 yards from shuttle bus drop off point. Thank you.

Victoria Panorama Scenic Seaplane Tour

Kathleen_E, Jul 2025

I could do this all day

This was fabulous, The only negative part is it's only about 20 minutes in the air. For the cost, longer air time would have been nice. But, still a great experience and I highly recommend. NOTE. This is an international airport, make sure you have your government issued ID, even for the Harbour tour. Fun fact: it's the only international airport in the world that can be closed due to whales entering the Harbour.
