The Tour Begins…
Victoria comes alive at night—and so should your taste buds! Join us for a one-of-a-kind evening walking tour that blends mouthwatering bites, intriguing history, and the city’s electric after-dark charm.
Just steps from the cruise shuttle stop, your culinary journey kicks off outside the Visitor Centre where your friendly local guide will greet you. From there, we’ll take a short stroll down lively Government Street, soaking in the atmosphere before arriving at our first stop: Block Kitchen + Bar. This buzzing hotspot serves up globally inspired dishes, and you’ll get to try their signature Bao—choose between melt-in-your-mouth pork belly or crispy tofu, each bursting with flavor.
Next, enjoy a scenic walk along Victoria’s picturesque Wharf Street before slipping into one of the city’s coolest hidden gems—CERA. Tucked away in a secret hallway, this sleek speakeasy-style bar will transport you with a modern Korean-inspired cocktail that’s as bold and unforgettable as the space itself.
The Tour Continues…
Next, we’ll wander into the eerie and fascinating Bastion Square, once home to Fort Victoria and now known as one of the city’s most haunted locations. As we share chilling tales of gold rush rogues, legendary figures like Judge Begbie (the “hanging judge”), and the city’s early history, you’ll be sinking your teeth into the best fried chicken sandwich in town—served from a hidden “ghost restaurant” called Birdman.
No night out is complete without a sweet ending! We’ll take a leisurely stroll along lively Government Street, admiring the city’s twinkling lights and historic charm, before treating ourselves to a delicious local dessert. The tour concludes conveniently near the cruise ship shuttle stop, making it easy to head back to your ship or dive into the city’s vibrant nightlife
