The Tour Begins…

Step off the cruise ship and straight into Victoria’s vibrant nightlife and culinary scene! Your adventure begins just a short two-minute walk from the cruise shuttle stop, where our guide will greet you in front of the Visitor Centre.

We’ll kick things off at the Off The Eaten Track gift shop, located in the historic Steamship Terminal Building. Here, you’ll enjoy a warm welcome and a tasting of delicious island-made treats, including specialties from local Indigenous businesses.

Next, we’ll head to the scenic waterfront and visit the Steamship Bar & Grill, where you’ll indulge in a rich and flavorful seafood chowder, packed with locally sourced ingredients. To complete the experience, we’ll pair it with a glass of BC wine for the perfect taste of the West Coast.

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
