Couple from DownUnder - Sophie is a great tour guide. Very sweet and accommodating. It was a long day and she was very resourceful, providing us charging cables for our phones - what a life saver!

Amazing day from start to finish - Anthony shared lots of history about Vancouver, the ferry crossing, and Victoria before we even got to Butchart Gardens. The gardens were stunning and we even had time to explore downtown Victoria.

We Loved Our Trip at the Gardens - Sue was our diver/guide for the day. She pointed out sea lions on the ferry through the Gulf Islands, then spent 2 hours at Butchart Gardens explaining the themed gardens (Japanese, Italian, Rose Garden) and left us free to explore. In Victoria he recommended a local café by the harbour. Her dry humour kept the long day lively

Super guide and overall trip - Sue took us around and did an excellent job. From the pick-up in Vancouver, through the ferry, arriving at Butchart Gardens and later Victoria's downtown shops, she gave excellent commentary on Vancouver Island's past logging and mining history. Her humour about 'bus snacks' got a few laughs. Full day, but worth it.

Fantastic tour for us! - Mark handled the long day brilliantly; ferry, gardens, city. At Butchart he mentioned the original quarry and how the transformation happened, then in Victoria the Empress Hotel's ghost stories (with a sly wink). The humour was subtle but kept everyone engaged even when our feet got tired.

There was no experience as they were a no-show. - Worst experience ever. We waited in the rain for them for 1/2 hour and they never showed and didn't even have the courtesy to let us know. Then they sent us a text several days later to let us know they had booked a new tour for us when we had already left Vancouver. On top of everything we were still charged for it and now I have to try to get my money back. Stay away from this company.
