Few cities are more spectacularly suited to a walking tour than Victoria. Whether your passion is for the outdoors, history, beautiful scenery or horticulture, there is something here for you.
Starting from the cruise ship terminal, walk with your guide on a journey of discovery through one of the oldest residential neighborhoods in Western Canada. The streets are lined with period houses and you will hear captivating stories of the people and events that shaped this charming town.
Reaching downtown Victoria, you will encounter a vibrant city with an English Old Town atmosphere. Your guide will introduce to you two very famous buildings — the magnificent BC Legislature building, and the world-famous Empress Hotel. A great deal of history surrounds both these famous landmarks, and some of the stories are right out of the 'truth is stranger than fiction' department.
Your tour ends on the lawns of the Empress Hotel. Guests wishing to stay in town to shop or explore independently are welcome to do so. Your guide will give you a shuttle ticket to return to the ship at your leisure.
Notes:
Tour requires walking for about two hours. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Bring bottled water. Restroom facilities en route are very limited. Bring your sense of humor to best enjoy this lively and entertaining outing.
