Emma ( driver) was definitely a plus- very informative and charming without being stuffy or a “ canned” presentation. Absolutely a fun way to see the inner harbor area and discover the Victorian homes of James Bay

Elsie the horse was so sweet. She and her driver took us along an informational late night tour of Victoria. It’s a quaint, fun, and clean city. We were only there for a couple of hours, so this hour tour was perfect. We would definitely do it again. Elsie was even so kind as to return us to our cruise ship.

Our tour did not go as planned... helpful hints:
If you do have access to a telephone i.e cruise ship passengersand cannot reconfirm do not book. Just walk up to the provider and book it yourself right there and have just as much chance of going.
It is a 45 minute walk from the cruise ship terminal. It's not strenuous and is beautiful but part of your walk will be on your tour.
Do not go to Beacon hill in the dark. They do not have lights and you cannot see how beautiful it is. We were not taken deep into the park as advertised so I don't know much more than the main road but we didn't see much. -

We enjoyed our trip to Victoria. We had my 88 year old mother in law with us and she really had a good time. The carriage ride was wonderful. We were fortunate to have a young lady give us the tour. She had good energy and was very knowledgeable.
