Great afternoon tour in Victoria

Published on Aug, 2024

We were so lucky to find this tour and it didn’t disappoint. Our tour guide Helen was absolutely amazing. She was very knowledgeable and engaging, even did a little improv to explain a story. We and our dog had a wonderful time.

Very informative and welcoming experience!

Published on Aug, 2024

I highly recommend Victoria Tours! I have lived on the island since 2014, but have often avoided downtown due to the congestion and avoidance of busy areas. This walking tour was fantastic and very informative. The tour guides showed a passion for the city and its history. I recommend making sure you dress for the weather with the unpredictable west coast.

Learning the fun history of Victoria.

Published on Jul, 2024

The tour was great! Fun, engaging, Claire was incredibly knowable on the history of the area and I learned a lot of fun facts and interesting stories that aren't found in the normal history or guide books. I loved it!

Great!

Helen was awesome! She was kind, funny and knowledgeable. A perfect mix for a tour guide. I would recommend Victoria Tours over all the rest.
