Cruise To Victoria
Thrilling and memorable, Victoria San Juan Cruises’ narrated excursions through the San Juan Islands to Victoria, B.C., are one of the Northwest’s most unforgettable experiences. Cruising through the exquisite San Juan Islands, you’ll sight a variety of marine wildlife, including captivating Orca Whales, bald eagles, playful seals and porpoise.
Upon arrival in the charming port of Victoria, there’s time to indulge in the visual feast of the Butchart Gardens, the luxurious and traditional afternoon tea at the Fairmont Empress Hotel, or an open-ended exploration of the shops and restaurants of the city.
And, whatever you’ve chosen as your pastime during the day, you’ll end the day with our outstanding ‘all you can eat’ salmon and chicken dinner on the return cruise, complemented by a Northwest sunset and the majesty of the coastal waters of Washington and British Columbia.
We will operate cruises to Victoria this summer, starting on May 7, 2010.
About Victoria
Victoria, the crown jewel of British Columbia, is one of the world’s most enchanting cities. Most attractions and shops are within easy walking distance from the picturesque harbor, but, for added fun, try touring the city by horse-drawn carriage or via the cheerful and traditional double-decker bus.
Afternoon tea at a cozy tearoom puts you in the perfect Victoria mood, and be sure to browse through the many shops filled with antiques, tartans, and ‘must have’ collectibles. Great family fare can be found at the Royal London Wax Museum, with exhibits as varied as the Chamber of Horrors and Storybook Land. The Royal B.C. Museum has outstanding permanent and traveling exhibits, and, if you’re feeling lucky, venture to one of the casinos in the greater downtown area.
Staying a night or two is a great option. We list a variety of great hotel options on our Victoria hotel page. It’s easy to add a visit to the Butchart Gardens, make a reservation for Afternoon Tea at the Empress Hotel, or hop aboard a double-decker bus for the Grand City Tour. Be sure to ask one of our reservations agents for details. However long your stay, Victoria promises to be a magical experience. |
