View picturesque Victoria on this entertaining tour with a distinctly Canadian flavor.
Along the way, take in the city's iconic landmarks, noting the Mile Zero Marker. This is the start of the nearly 5,000-mile 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. Then, you'll drive through the University of Victoria, whose 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:
Terrain includes a steep hill to climb at the Mount Tolmie lookout and about 14 steps.
