Itinerario
Este tour combina lo mejor de ambos mundos: una visión general de la magnífica ciudad de Victoria y una visita a los mundialmente famosos Jardines Butchart. Su recorrido tomará entre 3.5 y 4 horas y comenzará con un recorrido impresionante por la ruta escénica hacia los jardines de Butchard, en el camino le mostraremos la Mansión del Teniente Gobernador, el Castillo de Criagdarrow y las mejores vistas de la isla en la cima del Monte Tolmie. Entonces nos vamos a Butchart Gardens, que es uno de los jardines de flores más importantes del mundo. Jennie Butchart comenzó a dar forma a este magnífico paisaje de 55 acres en 1904 a partir de la cantera de piedra caliza abandonada de su esposo Robert. El resultado fue el espectacular Sunken Garden, un reflejo del movimiento de embellecimiento de principios del siglo XX y un logro excepcional en la historia de la jardinería canadiense. Como reflejo de sus viajes por el mundo, los Butcharts también crearon un jardín japonés, un jardín italiano y un jardín de rosas. A lo largo de generaciones sucesivas de la familia Butchart, The Gardens ha conservado gran parte de su diseño original y continúa con la tradición victoriana de cambiar estacionalmente las destacadas exhibiciones florales. Después de la visita a los jardines, comenzaremos nuestro recorrido por Victoria, un lugar donde el modernismo relajado de la costa oeste se mezcla con las tradiciones británicas, europeas y asiáticas. Donde explorará Chinatown, la casa de gobierno, la emperatriz En el hotel, Inner Harbor y el casco antiguo de Bastion Square terminaremos con un vistazo a Fisherman's Wharf. Tendrá aproximadamente 1,5 horas para disfrutar de los jardines, que están completamente iluminados para verlos por la noche.

Bobby was our driver and he was extremely informational along our trip and very pleasant to be with. Excellent driver. The ferry ride was fun and we got to see two pods of Orcas! Butchart Gardens was amazing as was Victoria. Bobby gave us lots of info on what to see and where in both places. Highly recommend this tour and if you get Bobby, you’ve hit the jackpot! Long day but with every minute!
The day long tour was very informative and included my bucket list trip to Butchart Gardens. Our bus driver/guide, Anthony knew a lot about the Vancouver/Victoria area. He guided us safely onto and off the ferry boat. He gave us an ample amount of time to explore both the Gardens and downtown Victoria.
Took this tour from Norwegian cruise line while on the Bliss cruising Alaska. Considering we dock in Victoria at 7:30pm, this tour I think is special as it's in the evening to the gardens. I love the garden lit up at night. However also felt we missed out on a lot and would like to see the garden during the day. I would visit again during the day, but feel once during the evening is enough.
What a splendor of flowers in spring, with many tulips and other spring flowers. All gardens are beautiful and landscaped with great care. A feast for the eyes, with many photo opportunities. The gardens are easy to reach and the parking is well signposted.
Perfect day even in the rain. Our van driver arrived on time to pick us up at the hotel. Drove us to the ferry and over to Victoria Island. Then off to the most beautiful gardens I have ever seen. 55 acres of manicured gardens that are so well maintained. After walking the gardens we were off to the city and learned all about Victoria and its rich history. Had lunch at Milestones which was quite good. Our driver was great and made sure we were comfortable all day.
Alex was amazing and the entire day ran very smoothly. The ferry ride was fantastic the gardens breathtaking, Victoria Islam’s is beautiful well worth spending time time. Highly recommend this tour
Our guide was Anoushca and she was knowledgeable, kind, and showed us the beauty of Victoria and the Gardens. We learned much about the culture, saw beautiful sights, and were in awe of the Butchart Gardens. Our tour was private (just four of us) and we felt like royalty. Such personal care and stellar information and sights. I highly recommend this tour. We had a sweet connection with our guide and have prayed for her and her husband ever since our tour.
Thank you Carole it was pleasure meeting you and so delighted you enjoyed your tour.We hope you visit again.
This tour is not what they claimed it to be. They decided to add another party to my tour which caused us to have to wait for 3 other people for an hour. Because of that the driver took us to a petting zoo to kill time. This delay got us back at 3:30 instead one 1:00. I blame the tour group that Viator booked with since they were trying to get 2 tours in one. Very unprofessional. Viator has let me down. I have booked many a tour with them but this was the WORST!!!!!
This is THE tour to take in Victoria! Anouscha was an excellent driver, guide and she is the 'duck whisperer'!!! She showed us all over the Victoria area and seeing the Butchart Gardens in the evening was spectacular! We smiled, laughed and had a great 4 hour excursion with this company!
Thank you Jacqueline it was a pleasure showing you our beautiful city we take great care of showing our guest the best of what Victoria has to offer.We hope you visit again.
Anoushka was great guide. Gave us a wonderful city tour with stops at parks (fed ducks and peacocks), mansions, panoramic views. Gave good historical background and was very knowledgeable. Introduced us to Garden and let us explore on our own which worked out well. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much Paul it was a pleasure meeting you both and hopefully we meet again some day.
