  1. Nicole_N

    Vancouver Island is a very special place, the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about Vancouver and gave us an overview on the way to the ferry. The gardens are beautiful, remember to pace yourself accordingly and get the ice cream at the end.

  2. Caroline_D

    Loved this tour! We had a great driver who is from the area and had so much to share about its history. Vancouver Island is beautiful. And can’t say enough about Butchart Gardens, it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen, like a fairy tale. Well worth it!

  3. Rebecca_H

    The gardens are lovely but the whole experience was made even better by our tour guide Dan. He was very knowledgeable and informed us to things as we went along on the coach that we would have otherwise missed. We learned about what was growing in the fields that we went by to Buddhist temples hidden away. We also learned some of the Canadian history. Having limited time in Victoria it was good to have places pointed out that we might like to see/experience. It was a very long day but a very good day. I am very happy to have booked this trip.

  4. Christine_O

    The travel was very smooth and well organised. Eric our driver was a wealth of information and really help make the trip worthwhile. Butchart Gardens was sensational.

  5. Laura_S

    Our driver, Ocean, was humorous and personable and provided lots of information and local color to what we saw passing by our coach windows. The ferry ride was smooth. I was concerned that the food might not be good on the ferry according to other reviews but this was not the case. I thought we had a good amount of time in Buchart Gardens but maybe not if you have a bit of trouble walking. It was a beautiful place. The time in Victoria was not long enough if you wanted a deep dive but for walking around the town for a little flavor & some shopping, it was fine. It was a long day but we enjoyed ourselves.

  6. Trevor_L

    The Butchart Garden is so beautiful, full of colour and landscape. We had 2 hours to spend there and that was sufficient. Victoria appears very nice but we only had very limited time (100 minutes) to browse around. It would have been better if we had more time in Victoria itself.

  7. Nancy_C

    Visiting Victoria was on my bucket list. So happy I was able to find this tour. The gardens were incredibly beautiful and the town of Victoria as well.

  8. Ricardo_A

    They have told me about Victoria Island, so I looked at the options and decided on Viator. What a wonderful experience! The driver/guide (Eric) is an excellent element. He drives carefully and safety and also gave us clear and precise explanations. Victoria was much more than expected.

  9. Judith_E

    The Butchart Gardens, the ferry ride and Eric our driver! We loved our free time at the dock in Victoria where we had plenty of time for a delicious lunch.
    It was well worth the money!

  10. Daniel_M

    Ocean was an amazing tour guide. Yes, that’s his name! We had a total blast learning from him and chatting with him all along our tour. This day trip is a must do while visiting Vancouver. Getting out to the island and then getting to experience this location was amazing!

  11. Anthony_L

    Great to visit the gardens and Victoria, but there is a lot of travelling compared to the amount of time available at the gardens / Victoria. Driver did provide lots of good information.

  12. Sheila_F

    Butchart Gardens was incredible!!! Amazing beauty!!! Our driver Dan was the best driver, narrarator and truly cared about our best experience! He was very very knowledgeable about the country’s history!

  13. Dennis_B

    The gardens were amazing. Lovely day in Victoria. The sun came out and we a terrific tea and treats.

  14. greg_j

    Big day but fantastic driver who was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The gardens and Victoria are both well worth a visit very picturesque.

  15. Misha_D

    Logistically this tour was tightly organised. No complaints there. However, be aware that most of the day is spent in buses and on boats. Packing in both Butchart Gardens AND Victoria in one day from Vancouver may simply be too much. In the end I spent just around 90 minutes in Victoria, which is simply too short to really appreciate the town. I suggest making the Gardens a separate trip, so there is more time to experience Victoria

  16. NgLai_F

    Driver was very clear in his commentary. Good driving skills n service. Wished there was more time to do tea at the garden.

  17. Di_H

    Was a lovely day out. Easy pick up, ferry ride and drop off to Butchart gardens and Victoria. Driver was very informative.

  18. rydlcruz

    Beautiful gardens , well maintained and manicured . Only thing is that it’s far from Vancouver where we stayed, one of the restaurants was closed so lines for food were long and we were only allowed 2 hours to explore the huge place which was not enough

  19. David_H

    This tour was a welcome surprise. Didn’t know much about Butchart Gardens to be honest. Our tour bus driver, Ocean was the best. Had about 3 hours at the garden and about 1.5 hours in the Parliament area. Wish we would have had more time to explore Victoria.

  20. RICHARD_P

    The sunken garden
    Our tour guide, Dan, was outstanding. Very knowledgeable and hard working.

    Extremely entertaining tour, but as many have already pointed out, it is a long day. But, enjoy every minute and relax! Who knows if you will ever be back to take in the lovely scenery, the fun ferry ride, and the pretty city of Victoria? Butchart Gardens in the fall? Spectacular!!!
    Ocean was a great tour driver. The coach was very comfortable. We highly recommend this adventure. Simply not having to deal with a car and the ferry is worth it!
