Butchart Gardens was spectacular and Victoria is such a beautiful place. The tour was very well organized and on time. We even had time for an extra stop to take in a mountain top view of Vancouver. Our guide Rodrigo was excellent,very informative and knowledgeable, patient and polite. Would definitely recommend this tour!
