View picturesque Victoria on this entertaining tour with a distinctly Canadian flavor.
Take in the city's iconic landmarks along the way, noting Mile Zero Marker. This is the start of the nearly 5,000-mile-long Trans-Canada Highway.
Pass through Beacon Hill Park with its 160-foot-tall totem pole. See the oldest Chinatown in Canada, and the stately Empress Hotel and Legislature building in Victoria's beautiful Inner Harbour.
Heading up Mount Tolmie, you'll encounter a wonderful panoramic city view, followed by a drive through the University of Victoria, where the original campus design has an interesting American connection.
What's the big deal about Tim Horton's? You're about to find out as you stop for coffee and a small snack at this Canadian institution -- a fast-food chain that is virtually synonymous with Canadian citizenship.
A Canadian trivia quiz will entertain you along the way -- with prizes, of course -- ensuring that you learn a little about our northern neighbor and adding some variety to your outing. You'll pass through downtown en route back to the pier.
A Canadian goodie bag is yours to enjoy, with chips, a chocolate bar and maple candy.
Notes:
At Tim Horton's enjoy a hot beverage with four Tim Bits. There is a steep hill to climb for the lookout from Mount Tolmie and about 14 steps to negotiate.
