Rejseplan
Vores akkrediterede guide vil møde dig på afhentningsstedet og ledsage dig til BC Ferries terminal.
BC Ferries er den primære transportform mellem Vancouver og Victoria. Under rejsen vil du nyde fantastisk kystudsigt over de naturskønne Gulføer, med skovklædte kystlinjer og roligt vand. Hold øje med dyrelivet - seagulls ofte flyve over skibet, og hvis du er heldig, kan du endda se havløver liggende på stenede udskæringer eller svømmer i nærheden. Ombord, BC Ferries tilbyder en række tjenester til at gøre din rejse mere behagelig, herunder caféer, gavebutikker, komfortable siddeområder, og udendørs dæk, hvor du kan tage i den friske havluft.
Træd ind i et blomsterunderland på Butchart Gardens, en af Victoria's mest ikoniske attraktioner. Gårderne spænder over 55 acres af smukt håndholdt landskaber, og har fem forskellige områder, herunder den fortryllende Sunken Garden, den livlige Rose Garden og den rolige Japanske Have. Meander langs svingende stier, slappe af ved rolige springvand, og nyde de sæsonbestemte blomster, der glæder besøgende året rundt. Den fredelige kørsel gennem landskabet tilføjer kun charmen af denne uforglemmelige botaniske oplevelse.
Beliggende på den sydlige spids af Vancouver Island, er Victoria en by, der blander gamle verden elegance med West Coast charme. Som hovedstaden i British Columbia, tilbyder det en unik blanding af kolonial arkitektur, frodige haver og en afslappet kystliv. Med sit milde klima og gåbare centrum, er Victoria perfekt til en dag med afslappet udforskning, kultur og naturskønne skønhed.
En af Victorias mest ikoniske højdepunkter er Inner Harbour - et malerisk hub ved vandet omgivet af historiske vartegn. Se både glide over vandet, besøge charmerende lokale butikker, eller nyde udsigten over den prægtige Fairmont Empress Hotel og den store BC lovgivende bygninger. Street-artister, madforhandlere og strandcaféer bringer området til live, hvilket gør det til et must-see-sted for førstegangsbesøgende og tilbagevendende rejsende.
Nyd en fredelig returrejse om bord på BC færgen til Vancouver. Se solen synke under horisonten og kaste gyldent lys over Gulføerne og det glitrende vand. Den milde havvind, blød aftenglans og fantastisk kystudsigt skaber en rolig, romantisk atmosfære - perfekt til at reflektere over en dag.

4 of us booked a trip to Victoria and Butchart garden and we got emails and tickets saying that bus should leave at 9. However the day before the trip should start we got an email saying trip should start at 7 and in same email also stating starting at 9. We waited for the bus at 9 but no bus at 9. So we had to do a private tour. The operator and Tripadvisor reject our refund request.
Excellent tour, good communication from guide. Loved Victoria & Butchart Gardens, even in light rain! Lynn was a wonderful tour guide/bus driver!
The gardens are so beautiful, well worth the long trip from Deep Cove. So many stunning flowers, plants and trees to see and photograph.
Operator late for pick-up. Hot day with no aircon, only hot wind blowing. Gardens also not up to expectations.
The tour was wonderful sights and the tour guide / bus driver did a great job of providing relevant information. It is a really long tour starting at 7 AM and scheduled to end at 8 PM. The bus as a disaster. The passenger door didn’t fit and would not lock down without multiple tries. The A/C was not working so it hotter in the bus than outside. The worst part was the bus got a flat tire and rather than sending a new bus to pick us up to complete the tour. The company sent a tow truck to fit the flat tire which was adding about two hours more to the trip. Rather than wait we finally took an Uber back to our hotel at a cost of $44. I’m still recommending the tour but if you use this company hope you get a better bus.
The garden was beautiful, worth exploring we truly enjoyed that part of the tour. However, the transportation experience was horrifying, the bus didn’t have any air conditioning in the back of the bus and there were no windows to open. It was 94f/34c in the bus as we drove from the gardens to Victoria. We requested numerous times to have the air in the back increased. The air in front by driver was working, so he was fine and when we repeatedly mentioned how hot it was, he made it seem like we were just complaining. It was pure torture, like we were in a sweat box. It ruined our tour experience, we were so hot I had to create a fan to try and keep my kids cool. Once we got to Victoria we requested the driver fix the air conditioning, he mentioned when we returned to the bus fixing it wasn’t an option to fix. We asked if we could open emergency door hatch to get some air in the back. Driver wouldn’t allow it. On top of the air conditioning being broken, the bus was also smoking from burning oil smell, by the end of the tour I felt sick. It was truly a nightmare experience.
It was very good, the bus driver/ tour guide was very informative , it made the day interesting and pleasant. The gardens were so spectacular and so worth the long day. If you’re time constricted the day trip is good but a stay in Victoria would be better,allowing more time.
We traveled from Norway to Vancouver and wanted to visit Victoria and Butchart Gardens. All the emails we got up front and the tickets showed that the bus trip should start at 09:00 from the meeting point. But the bus left at 07:10 so we lost the bus.
Amazing but long day. Butchart Garden was spectacular. In Victoria we went to our guides lunch recommendation at Red fish Blue fish. So delicious. Finished our day on the terrace at the Fairmont in Victoria sipping wine. Lovely!
Absolutely loved the mix of beautiful gardens, the very scenic ferry tour and of course the city of Victoria. Guide was great with their time and told us so much about the spots
