Overview
This is the most unique experience in Victoria. On the Group Walking Tour of Victoria, you get to determine the value for yourself. Victoria’s fascinating history comes alive for you, taking you past iconic and picture-ready sites like the Empress Hotel, multiple heritage buildings from the Gold Rush Era, and the famous “Canada's skinniest alley” in Chinatown. You’ll learn about Victoria’s many eras & districts and discover how it has grown from a small trading post to a rollicking boomtown, to the laid-back and beautiful City of Gardens. Group Walking Tour (Tip based) means that every guest (after booking fee and taxes) has the freedom to set their own price, depending on their budget, the amount of value they feel they received on the 2.5-hour tour, and their desire to support this experience. This highly-rated walking tour will show you all the top attractions and your local guide will take you to all the must-see spots.
