What To Expect

Meet your guide by the Inner Harbour in Downtown Victoria, and then set off on your 1.5 hour walking tour to explore the highlights of Old Town, Bastion Square and Chinatown. History and human drama abound in the area, and as you walk your guide will point out examples of beautiful 1800's architecture.

Victoria is a walker's paradise and because it is a compact city, much historical ground can be covered in a short time.
