Victoria Tour - Riley was very informative and the walking tour was a perfect length of time. It was a large group of 14 people, but that didn’t seem to slow us down.

Great Tour, Greatest Tour Guide - This 2.5 hour tour was exceptional! Our tour guide Camino equipped us with all the necessary (and extra) tips, advice and history on the downtown Victoria area, as well as providing us with recommendations on great dinner spots ( Bard and Banker is a must) and attractions in the further Victoria area.
