Vancouver Island, Victoria & Butchart Gardens
Join a scenic ferry trip through the forested Gulf Islands to the southernmost tip of Vancouver Island. Here you’ll visit the world-famous Butchart Gardens, four gloriously themed gardens spread over 55 acres and ablaze with over 1000 species of flowers. Following a short coastal drive past mansions belonging to the rich and famous, you’ll have the afternoon free to explore the island’s capital, Victoria. Perhaps take tea at the Empress hotel, browse the shops or take in the views across the Pacific to the US state of Washington.
