Linda was a great tour guide and even messaged us before we arrived to welcome us and share some valuable information! We had a very memorable tour of Victoria. Linda was waiting for us at the ferry terminal with a sign when we arrived and dropped us back on time for boarding. We traveled in a comfortable and spacious transit van as she shared historical facts along the way. We enjoyed seeing the Butchart Gardens, various historic landmarks, Fisherman's Wharf, Beacon Hill Park, Craigdarroch Castle, and Chinatown. We also had a lovely lunch and ice cream at the gardens and got some nice souvenirs from the gift shop. I would highly recommend this tour; it was truly an unforgettable experience. I hope to return to Victoria again!Linda picked us up promptly at cruise ship even though we were delayed getting off Vsl.

Linda picked us up promptly at cruise ship even though we were delayed getting off Vsl. Took scenic route to Butchart Gardens, always conversing with us with questions answered, so personably. Drove through Victoria, stopped at Craiggarroch Castle, to scenic overlook, along water front and downtown. I would highly recommend this tour. Comfortable vehicle, just a great experienceOur guide Linda, a local, customized the trip for us since we were the only ones on that tour. After a bit of conversation, she understood what we had already seen and what we liked and customized the tour for us. Very congenial and full of local knowledge. Thank you Linda!

We loved our tour with Mark -- he picked us up promptly from the cruise terminal at the specified time. He was very patient, informative, and wise to stop at Beacon Hill Park to let the kids run around and get their wiggles out. Mark even brought bird feed that he shared with the children to feed the peacocks. He showed us the sights of Victoria (Fisherman's Wharf, Beacon Hill Park, Craigdarroch Castle) on our way to Butchart Gardens, then let us peruse the gardens at our leisure before picking us up and showing us Chinatown/Fan Tan Alley. We concluded our tour with a special request -- a stop for Beaver Tails -- and Mark was happy to comply. We enjoyed that the tour was customized and more cost-effective than if we had done a port excursion through the cruise line: win-win! Thank you Mark!
