Nice tour of usual places. We were hoping for a tour of some of the more unusual, the side streets, the streets off the main road.

Victoria tour with family and friends

I thought the tour was excellent; you get to know aspects of the city that you wouldn't be able to appreciate on your own. The guide, Luis Chaves, was a very good guide; he explains things very well, and we had a very pleasant tour.

Tour of Victoria

Really enjoyed the tour. The tour guide was excellent and they learned a lot about the city of Victoria. It was rainy and cold weather, but I hardly noticed as I was having fun.
