Great tour and way to spend the day

Stella_W, Sep 2025

My tour guide, Kevin, was superb. He drove a beautiful Tesla car and was a great guide. He is a Victoria native, so he really knows the area and the history of the land. He took me to Butchart Gardens and offered to walk with me since I was solo, which I thought was a very nice gesture, but I preferred to go on my own. After the Gardens he took me all over the island pointing out both landmarks and items in the natural world. I really enjoyed talking with him and learning more about Canada and Victoria. If you have a chance to have him as your guide, jump on it. You will not be disappointed.

Kevin is a great guide

Kevin’s knowledge, training, and experience combine with his compassion to create a great tour. I am obsessed with gardens and volunteer in a large public garden in Hawaii. Shortly before the trip, I tweaked a tendon and was having trouble walking. Kevin borrowed a wheelchair at Butchart Gardens and wheeled me through, making it possible to not only enjoy the garden in comfort but also conserve my energy for the other gardens we visited.

Absolutely fantastic!

Great guide, good auto & good stops to see... wine tasting & lunch was outstanding & beer at end with guide was nice as we left him.

Perfect day tour on our honeymoon

Elyse_J, Jun 2022

We loved our day with Kevin! Prompt pickup, safe driving, lots of great scenic detours and local knowledge. The lunch and tasting at Sea Cider were excellent, and Kevin surprised us with a gin tasting in Sidney at the end of the tour. Above and beyond our expectations! Highly recommend.
