I didn’t see or get the value for money

Really underwhelming. Guide’s accenting make it easy to understand his English He also wasn’t really a guide more like a driver who just said a few things about where we were going and instructions on times to meet up. There was no guide through the city, grounds or any of the attractions we went to. The Accom was average and looking at the online night rate and the costs for both the skywalk and gardens, it makes it a very expensive transporter and driver cost. Total tour cost $640cad ( hotel and admission fees totalled about $300-320cad) you do the math!! Then they want a mandatory service fee of $15pp per day!!! Way too expensive for the value I go out of it. Best to so either a day trip with English guide and company or independently organise. Oh and you have to make sure in you 90mn stop at inner harbour to sort your dinner and breakfast out as the hotel is in middle of no where with a 15mn walk to local subway or take out.

Few bits worth asking about...

The motel we stopped in had a pool and gymn which would be good to know, and also only served wings not meals, with no obvious restaurants nearby, both would have been good to know

Just Go!

What a wonderful tour and visit to Victoria and Vancouver Island at such a great price. Here visiting Vancouver and BC for the first time from Miami and my bf and I thought it would be easy and fun to hop on a tour with First Express Travel. We were not disappointed. Highlight of the trip was for sure Butchart Gardens and the Inner Harbour. Pro Tip: make sure you go on a sunny day as Victoria and the surrounding area really shines during the day.

Epic Trip

Travel agency offers both 1 day and 2 days tours. We opted for the 2 days as we wanted more time to spend at each location and on the island. Glad we did as it was a blast. Highlight of the tour were Butchart Gardens and the Malahat Skywalk. If you have not been to Victoria nor the island, and want to get all the sites in without managing logistics, scheduling and such - this is the tour to be on!

10/10

What an epic and incredible trip! Our family went with the 5 star hotel option and although more expensive, I think it was totally worth it. Excellent and professional tour guide that was experienced and made the trip smooth and engaging. I feel the 2-day tour is the perfect amount of time and provides a lot more room for travelers to really experience both Vancouver Island and the beautiful City of Victoria. 10/10

Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vancouver.

How much does Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English cost?

+

Prices start at $569 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vancouver usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English take?

+

Plan for about 48 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 is not rushed.

Is Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Vancouver, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English?

+

No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

Is Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English?

+

Around 4 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 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 and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Vancouver Island, Butchart, Malahat 2-Day Tour in Chinese/English 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 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?

+

On Outty we rank every Vancouver experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Vancouver City Sightseeing Tour: Capilano Suspension Bridge & Vancouver Lookout, Epic Electric Bike Tour of Vancouver, Whistler, Sea to Sky Gondola, & Shannon Falls Tour from Vancouver. 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?

+

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?

+

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.
