Victoria and Butchart Gardens Day Trip

The best family day together…

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Vancouver. The ferry ride, Butchart Gardens, and Victoria were all beautiful. Everything was well planned, and we had enough time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Our guide was friendly and made the trip easy and enjoyable. We’d happily book another tour with Arrow Travel & Transit the next time we’re back.

Capilano Suspe Bridge & Grouse Mountain Limited Small Group Tour

Howard_B, Jul 2026

Great visit to Capilano and Grouse Mtn!

We had a wonderful day on our tour with Lucio (our YellowCap guide) to Capilano and Grouse Mountain! Lucio was super friendly and provided great info on the sites we visited as well as other spots along the way, and he even sent us suggestions for later in our trip. We were blessed with gorgeous weather, and we really enjoyed the magnificent trees and trails at Capilano Park. We arrived early so we were lucky to be ahead of the crowds that showed up later. We also enjoyed Grouse Mountain - the cable car ride up, the grizzly bears, and the gravity coaster. Afterward, Lucio asked where we wanted to be dropped off, and he made some suggestions. We ended up doing a quick stop at Crumbl for delicious cookies and then Lucio dropped us off at the Shipyards area for lunch. Overall, a fantastic tour!

Full Day From Vancouver to Victoria

Got picked up at 9:30am and dropped off 12 hours later. 1.5 hour ferry ride each way, plus 30 minutes waiting to board is a big chunk of time, but the ride over flies by. Did the Butchart Gardens and Craigdarroch Castle, China Town and the wharf. All were worth the trip. Anthony our tour guide was knowledgeable, accommodating, and great communicator in making sure the day is what we wanted it to be. He’s been in Vancouver the vast majority of his life and done tours for years and it showed. Highly recommend, but clear your schedule for the day.

A great experience

It was a cloudy day and the chances were that we would not be able to see the sunset. The capital was so accommodating and asked us if we would like to reschedule. We decided to go ahead. It turned out to be a different annd great experience. The captain and his crew are excellent. The boat is well equipped and the drinks and food provided exceeded our expectation.
