Visit the City of Victoria

A hidden treasure of the West Coast, Victoria welcomes visitors with open arms. The city is located on the southern tip of Vancouver Island and is a short ferry trip, or even shorter plane ride, from Vancouver. Victoria's colonial past and charming ambiance come to the forefront when visitors walk through Old Town, stroll the promenade along the Inner Harbour or enjoy afternoon tea at the world-famous Empress Hotel.

Interesting attractions abound in Victoria, from museums and galleries to gardens and ocean adventures. Downtown is steeped in history from the colourful streets of Chinatown and the BC Parliament Buildings to the natural relics of the Royal BC Museum or the living gallery of the Pacific Undersea Gardens. There is never a shortage of things to do in beautiful Victoria, BC.

Victoria is also home to the renowned Butchart Gardens and is the ultimate spot to take an exciting whale watching tour. Head out on the Pacific Ocean and experience the natural wonder of orcas before your eyes. Welcome to Victoria!
