Great walking tour of Victoria, it is a very walkable city. We had a small group of people which was nice and our guide was very good. He took us to places that we would not have known were there.

Stephen was brimming with knowledge and enthusiasm about beautiful historic Victoria. He made everyone on our tour - there were nine of us -- feel welcome and special. We made at least thirteen stops to everything from hidden gems to grand architecture to charming alleys, and throughout he built up a nail-biting story from Victoria's past (complete with photo aids) revealing it all once we arrived at the gorgeous market square. The tour was so well -organized and planned. I'd do it again!
