Victoria & Butchart Gardens Full-Day Tour from Vancouver Embark on an unforgettable full-day adventure exploring Victoria, the charming capital city of British Columbia, on this guided tour from Vancouver. Experience a seamless combination of stunning natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant culture as you travel by luxury coach and BC Ferry to Vancouver Island. Departure from Vancouver Your day begins in downtown Vancouver, where you board a comfortable, climate-controlled coach. Relax as you travel south through the city and surrounding areas, taking in the views along the way. Your knowledgeable guide will share interesting facts and stories about the region, setting the stage for a memorable day ahead. Scenic BC Ferry Crossing Next, you’ll board the iconic BC Ferry at Tsawwassen Terminal for a scenic 90-minute crossing of the Georgia Strait. As you glide across the sparkling waters, enjoy panoramic views of the Southern Gulf Islands and keep an eye out for local marine life. Orcas, seals, and bald eagles are often spotted during this picturesque journey. The ferry’s comfortable lounges and decks provide the perfect place to relax and take photos. Explore the World-Renowned Butchart Gardens Upon arrival on Vancouver Island, your tour continues to the spectacular Butchart Gardens, a National Historic Site of Canada. This internationally acclaimed garden spans over 55 acres and features more than 900 varieties of plants arranged in beautiful themed gardens. Take about two hours to immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of the Sunken Garden, the vibrant Rose Garden, the serene Japanese Garden, and many more. Wander along winding paths lined with colourful flowers, fountains, and sculptures, capturing unforgettable memories. Discover Historic Victoria Following your visit to the gardens, the coach heads to downtown Victoria. En route, pass through Canada’s oldest Chinatown—a fascinating area filled with history and character—and enjoy views of the picturesque Victoria Harbour, home to the renowned Inner Harbour. This lively waterfront area is known for its stunning views, cultural landmarks, and vibrant street life. Once in downtown Victoria, you will have ample free time (usually about 1.5 to 2 hours) to explore at your leisure. Stroll the harbourfront, browse unique boutiques and artisan shops, or visit renowned landmarks such as the Royal BC Museum or the historic Fairmont Empress Hotel. You might also choose to relax in one of the many cafés or waterfront restaurants. Return to Vancouver In the late afternoon, reboard your coach for the return journey. Travel back to Tsawwassen to catch the ferry back to Vancouver. As you cross the Georgia Strait, reflect on a day filled with breathtaking scenery and cultural discovery. Your guide will share stories and highlights to round off the experience. Once back in Vancouver, you’ll be dropped off at your original departure point, concluding your full-day tour.
