Great Way To See A Lot in Little Time
The Hop On/Hop Off (HOHO) tour is a great way to see much of the city and learn about it's history. The drivers are friendly and knowledgeable and each driver offers a different perspective so in hopping on and off you get a well-rounded overview of the city's highlights. We enjoyed it very much.
Response from the operator: Thank you Sharing your feedback We are very glad to hear you enjoyed the tour and found the drivers Knowledgeable!

Great Excursion
Unfortunately I ended up in the hospital literally the day we were supposed to fly out but the other couple was able to go and stated it was a great excursion to see Victoria
Response from the operator: We’re sorry to hear you ended up in the hospital. We hope you’re feeling much better! We’re glad the other couple enjoyed the tour, and we hope to welcome you another time!

Norm is da Man
Norm was a great narrator. He definitely knows the history of Victoria and also made it fun. We sat on the top of the bus which had great views. Just bring a jacket if weather is going to be cold.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that Norm made the tour both fun and informative!

Victoria
We enjoyed it fully. The bus was clean and well cared for. We were able to get on and off all over town. Our driver was informative and had lots of history in his talking.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re happy you had a great experience.

90 minutes well spent
The trip gives an overview of the central area of Victoria. We went on the bus twice once on a complete tour. The guide/driver on that trip was excellent, truly informative. The second trip was different. The driver used a recording as the narration and it was much less informative than the first driver. And finally as we got off at what was supposed to be the market square the driver got mad because he dropped us off at the wrong place and ushered us off the bus with some garbled instructions. I don’t know the drivers name but the good one was originally from Ontario. But I feel the cost was far too high for a 90 minute journey.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback!

24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vancouver Island.
How much does 24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $53 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vancouver Island usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour take?
+
Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vancouver Island is not rushed.
Is 24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 328 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vancouver Island, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour?
+
Around 115 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vancouver Island can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vancouver Island and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 24 Hour Hop On Hop Off Double Decker Victoria City Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vancouver Island within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Vancouver Island?
+
On Outty we rank every Vancouver Island experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Victoria Guided Food and History Tour, Whistler Tour from Vancouver + Sea to Sky Gondola + Shannon Falls, Victoria Whale and Wildlife Cruise. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Vancouver Island?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Vancouver Island?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
