What you’ll do

Delve further into Victoria with this five day itinerary.

This city has so much to offer and it is difficult to see it all in one visit. But we think a five day trip will give you the time to truly get a sense of this incredible city.

As the capital of British Columbia, Victoria boasts a vibrant arts and culture scene set against an unparalleled natural backdrop.

Its walkable downtown is perfect for exploring, with colorful gardens, a picturesque harbour, and magnificent architecture that reflects the city’s rich British heritage.

Don’t miss the iconic Butchart Gardens, the stunning Parliament Buildings, or the nearby castles.

With its clean, attractive streets and welcoming atmosphere, Victoria is a must-visit destination for travelers seeking a mix of history, nature, and urban beauty.

Disclaimer: Our Vancouver Island travel guide offers packed, detailed itineraries designed to help you make the most of your time exploring this beautiful and diverse region. Vancouver Island is vast, with countless sights to see and experiences to enjoy, so there is plenty of ground to cover. While our itineraries provide a full and exciting schedule, we encourage you to tailor your trip to fit your preferences.

Please keep in mind that driving distances between destinations can vary significantly. We recommend doing some research to understand the travel times between locations and planning your route accordingly.

Happy exploring!

Use your first day in Victoria to explore the charm of the downtown area. It is so ultra walkable you won’t even need a car.
