Beautiful and historic Victoria is a fantastic place to see. Known as the Garden City, it's in full bloom in Spring and Summer, and has such a mild Winter, you can golf year round! Easily accessible from Vancouver, Victoria is the perfect day trip.

Wander the quaint, and very 'English' downtown core, shop, sightsee, admire heritage buildings, visit stunning gardens, then relax over afternoon tea.

The legendary Empress Hotel pours 1.6 million cups of afternoon tea a year!

Don't miss Butchart Gardens - world-renowned for its fifty-five acres of year-round spectacular flora displays and theme gardens!
