Butchart Gardens tours

We were able to efficiently tour the admired Butchart Gardens and the city of Victoria, with plenty of free time on site. The time spent on the ferry was also fulfilling, and we were very satisfied being able to enjoy meals on our own. The bus was also clean. However, I thought it would have been reassuring if a photo of the bus had been provided beforehand for pickup, as there are many buses picking up near the Hyatt, which caused a bit of confusion. Nevertheless, we were picked up successfully and had an enjoyable trip.

Overall, it was good. We had two hours at Butchart Garden and enough time to explore downtown and have lunch. This tour included hotel pickup and drop-off, so we didn't have to worry about transportation. However, due to a traffic accident that day, we missed the 7 PM ferry and returned to the hotel very late.

Our tour guide and driver, Alan, was very dedicated. In addition to being punctual with pickups and drop-offs, he explained local characteristics and scenery along the way and even helped us take photos. The minibus for the transfer was quite comfortable, and water and snacks were provided on board. The group of fewer than 20 people was very punctual and wonderful!
