Butchart Gardens and Victoria Sightseeing Tour from Vancouver

Stop and smell the flowers!

It's a long day but worth it! We traveled from downtown Vancouver to the ferry. The ferry is about one and a half hours. Butchart Gardens did not disappoint. The British Columbia Museum is very nice. I just had a knee replacement in June but this Trip was not a problem. Thank you Kim. Kim is great 👍 Mitch and I had a great time.

Our guide Ryan was the best! He treated us like family, giving us advice to keep us safe & informing us about all the beautiful places we saw. He even adjusted the timing for our Sea 2 Sky Gondola ride allowing us to have a better view. Highly recommend this tour with him!!

Whistler Tour from Vancouver + Sea to Sky Gondola + Shannon Falls

Emma_K, Aug 2026

Pacific tours and driver Clarky, absolute legend!

Pacific Tours was amazing from start to finish, and the driver, Clarky, really made it what it was. He was so kind and friendly, and we also had a passenger that needed medical attention due to a pre-existing health condition and he just went above and beyond. We were on the fence about the tour but it was so worth the money, the views and experiences were absolutely incredible, and also the knowledge shared with us along the way made it all the more interesting. We cannot recommend enough!

Capilano Suspension Bridge Park Ticket

Justin_C, Aug 2026

An overwhelming and totally amazing surprise!

My partner booked this trip. I wasn’t really sure what to expect. However, I was totally amazed! It is absolutely worth it to visit this place. You will need at least three hours to comfortably stroll through and see everything and have a quick bite. It’s extremely clean, well put together organized and very very amazing!

Fantastic tour and guide!

We had one day before cruising to see Vancouver. Bobby was a fantastic guide. We saw all of the top sites, and a few extra ones on the way. The tour was informative and fun. We did not feel rushed and still felt we got to see a lot. We loved that it was a smaller crowd. Highly recommend this tour and Bobby!

Wonderful tour!

This tour company was totally organized, and very nice to work with. Our tour guide, Andrea, was amazing. She was a wealth of information, a great bus driver, and thoroughly entertaining. Just be aware that it is a very long day, but worth it. The gardens were gorgeous, and it was nice to see a bit of Victoria.

Whistler, sea to sky gondola & Shannon Falls

Vancouver day trip

Long day but we got to see a lot Adequate time in Victoria and Butchart Gardens to explore. There was some confusion about the pick-up time so we had to wait 2 hours - luckily we were the first off the bus on the return trip. Joe was very kind although his accent made him hard to understand.

Vancouver City Sightseeing Tour: Granville Island & Stanley Park

Mary_B, Aug 2026

Worthwhile tour

Our driver/guide, Tim, was very accommodating, helpful, and personable. He was very enjoyable as he guided and explained things throughout the tour. We were delayed somewhat because of street closures/traffic because of a 5k run being held that day, but our time was extended, and we were able to see/visit all the areas that had been promised.
