This day trip to Victoria in Vancouver Island was a very good experience .
Kailen was our driver/ tour guide and he told us facts along the way from pickup, to the ferry, to Victoria, along downtown, Chinatown, Butchart Garden. He was very communicative about expectations, time and place of pickup.
Victoria is beautiful. I loved walking through Chinatown, even ate a delicious authentic food at the Ocean Gardens Restaurant. We walked down to the marina, Hotel Empress and the Parliament, along stores, hotels restaurants with diners on the sidewalks. Victoria is made extra pretty with the colorful flowers.
Butchart Gardens was impressive with the abundant kinds of colorful blooming tulips arranged to impress and enchant visitors. I loved the Japanese and Sunken gardens. The Butchart Garden is truly must see attraction when in Victoria.

I 100% enjoyed the tour. Brett was very friendly & knowledgeable. Recommend to visit around May/June whereby it is less likely to rain. Will definitely visit Victoria again

Our driver, Brett, was wo Derulo. He shared the history of Vancouver as he pointed out the features of the area. More importantly, Brett was focused on the safety and comfort of his passengers, especially one with mobility issues. We observed him pushing her wheelchair at Butchart Gardens.

Victoria and Butchart Gardens were fabulous, but it was Kyle that made this tour outstanding! He was funny, knowledgeable and really committed to making the outing memorable. Having grown up and attended university in the area, he had a wealth of history and personal stories to share. I also appreciated his sharing timeframes, food recommendations and exactly what to expect everywhere we went. He made the entire day fun and stress free. Thank you Kyle!

The ship to Vancouver island was amazing! The rude was smooth! Victoria was really worth visiting especially the garden. This city is much prettier than Vancouver . It is a nice place to stay a few days much more to see than Vancouver or Richmond district.

We loved our tour to Vancouver Island and Buchart Gardens. Brandon was our tour guide extraordinaire and he was the best tour guide we have ever had. It was a long tour, which we knew in advance but it was literally, every second well spent. It was the most amazing and beautiful experience. My husband said Victoria and Vancouver Island and Bouchart Gardens was the most beautiful thing he ever has seen.
