Even better, you can hop on and off the buses at any of the stops, giving you the opportunity to see the sights at your own pace!

Victoria proves a gentle blend of colonial England and up-to-date Western Canada. The capital city of British Columbia, Victoria is located on the southern tip of Vancouver Island off Canada's Pacific coast. Named after Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom and the Dominion of Canada, Victoria is one of the oldest cities in the Pacific Northwest, with British settlement beginning in 1841. The city has retained a large number of its historic buildings, in particular its two most famous landmarks, the British Columbia Parliament Buildings (home of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia) and the Empress Hotel.

The city's Chinatown is the second oldest in North America after San Francisco's. Whether you want to visit the major attractions, spend time shopping, or visit one of the many fine restaurants, this is the tour for you! Book this flexible sightseeing tour of Victoria today.

Victoria Sightseeing made easy
My wife and I truly enjoyed the Hop On Off Bus tour we took in Victoria. The bus was fantastic as well as the driver. It was a smaller bus of two companies in Victoria that provided this service. It was a very pleasant and informative trip without the "super large crowds" associated with most trips of this kind. Would recommend without hesitation.

Best way to see Victoria.
This was the perfect way to see Victoria with a history at your own pace. Getting on the bus near the ship port was easy and saved money not having to get to the downtown start.

Great Snapshot
The HOHO Bus is an excellent way to get a well planned and informative snapshot of this beautiful city. Our driver was a fountain of knowledge. The weather was kind, allowing us to stay in the open section.
Thanks for the very clear instructions to embark at Ogden Cruise Ship Wharf.
