Victoria’s Inner Harbour

Victoria is a must see for pretty places of the World. We come often. The harbour has so much to see, do and enjoy. Fab restaurants for every taste but not cheap final bill. Plenty deer walking close to main roads

Malahat SkyWalk

"A top-notch experience offering breathtaking views of the Pacific Northwest forests!" The Malahat SkyWalk is undoubtedly one of Vancouver Island's most stunning attractions! Starting with a stroll along the wooden elevated walkway, surrounded by lush forests on both sides, you can also admire exquisite local wood carvings. The overall design is barrier-free and very user-friendly, making it easy for seniors and families with strollers to walk on. Upon reaching the 10-story-high spiral observation tower, the view instantly opens up—a 360-degree panoramic vista of Saanich Inlet and the distant snow-capped mountains create a breathtaking panorama. The adventure rope net area at the center of the tower is a great place to test your courage; stepping on it and looking down is sure to get your heart racing! Best of all, on the way down, you can take a 20-meter-long giant spiral slide, a fun and rapid ride to the bottom in seconds, providing a perfect ending to your journey. Although the tickets aren't cheap, the place is very clean and well-maintained, offering both beautiful scenery and fun experiences. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to experience the natural charm of Vancouver Island!

Hatley Castle

This castle looks quite exquisite and is one of the few ancient buildings in Victoria. The castle is covered with a lot of vegetation and you can move around freely here. Many places here seem to be well preserved.

Victoria’s Chinatown National Historic Site

Victoria was the last stop on our Alaskan cruise, and we only had around three hours to explore the city. We found some walking trails from the cruise ship terminal towards downtown and Chinatown (Canada’s oldest), where we grabbed a late night bubble tea snack before heading back to the ship.

Fisherman's Wharf Park

Victoria Fisherman's Wharf is also a very interesting place. You can see many good projects on this pier. The overall condition of Fisherman's Wharf is not bad. You can also go fishing here, and many hotels can taste seafood.
