The Ultimate Victoria City Tour

OVERVIEW

Enjoy an immensely scenic and highly entertaining drive through Victoria, the compact capital of British Columbia with a distinctly Canadian flavor. You will hit the highlights, but none so broadly illuminating as a stop atop Mount Tolmie for a sweeping 360 degree view of the city. Major attractions in the heart of Victoria include the grand Parliament complex along the Inner Harbor, the British-influenced Empress Hotel, the University of Victoria and Canada’s oldest Chinatown, which was settled by the 19th-century Chinese immigrants that arrived to build the railways and join the gold rush. Still, few institutions are more well-known in Victoria than Tim Hortons, where you will pause for a cup of its signature coffee. Try some Timbits. By tour’s end, you will know more about Victoria than you ever imagined as you will play trivia along the way and receive a Canadian goodie bag.
