Overview

This full-day tour lasts about 13 hours and starts with pickup from selected hotels in Vancouver. Guests travel by air-conditioned bus to the ferry terminal, where they board a 90-minute BC Ferry cruise across the Georgia Strait through the Southern Gulf Islands. After the ferry ride, the tour visits Butchart Gardens, a National Historic Site with over 50 acres of floral displays. Visitors have two hours to walk through themed areas such as the Sunken Garden and Rose Garden at their own pace. Following the gardens, the bus continues to downtown Victoria, passing through Canada’s oldest Chinatown and offering views of the Inner Harbour. There is about 30 minutes of free time near the Empress Hotel and Royal BC Museum to explore landmarks, take photos, or relax at nearby cafés. The tour ends with return transportation by bus to selected Vancouver hotels. All taxes, fees, and handling charges are included. The tour is conducted in English, with washrooms and luggage storage available on board. Pets are not permitted on the buses.
