Itinéraire
Rendez-vous à Inner Harbour, dans le centre-ville de Victoria, pour commencer votre visite à pied d'une heure et demie et explorer les points forts de la vieille ville, de Bastion Square et de Chinatown. L'histoire et les drames humains abondent dans la région et votre guide vous montrera des exemples de la belle architecture du XIXe siècle.
Victoria est un paradis pour les randonneurs et, parce que c'est une ville compacte, une grande partie du terrain historique peut être parcourue en peu de temps.
Tandis que Victoria est connue comme une tranche pittoresque de l'Angleterre vieille, la ville a aussi ses scandales et ses histoires sombres. À Bastion Square, découvrez les nombreuses pendaisons publiques de Victoria et la façon dont les autorités ont tenté de faire respecter la loi.
Lorsque Victoria était un port maritime en plein essor, Johnson Street était notre quartier rouge.

Fiona is an outstanding guide! She is not only nice, but knowledgeable as well. She made history entertaining! We highly recommend this tour and if you get Fiona, it’s even better!
Great length tour with engaged, knowledgeable guide. We walked past 10 mins after the end and he was still chatting sharing knowledge with some of people on tour even though not all of them tipped :(
Entertaining and informative. Our tour guide did a great job. It was fascinating to learn the backstory of many of the old buildings in the historical district.
