When planning the perfect weekend trip from Vancouver, look no further than British Columbia's thriving capital on Vancouver Island. Once considered a stodgy city stuck in time, Victoria has had a cultural revitalization, thanks to an infusion of tech startups and entrepreneurial-minded folks fleeing high property prices on the mainland. Hop on one of the regular 95-minute B.C. Ferries from Tsawwassen Terminal to the Swartz Bay Terminal on Vancouver Island, and drive 35 minutes along the Patricia Bay Highway to downtown Victoria. Fuel up at Picnic One or Picnic Too, a pair of Fort Street coffee shops that serve up locally roasted two percent Jazz coffee and other local fan favorites, including Empire Donuts and Cultured Kombucha. If your sweet tooth is still unsatisfied, stop in down the street at Crust Bakery for a baked-that-day chai pumpkin gingerbread tartlet or a passion fruit cronut (among many other baked delights). For something more substantial (and sustainable), Be Love is a bustling, plant-based restaurant that serves up seasonal, meat-free meals designed to feed the body and soul. Perro Negro is also worth a visit, offering an outstanding menu of traditional Spanish tapas, which allows you to eat as much or as little as you like–be confident knowing every bite will be delicious. One of Victoria's most popular attractions is the Royal British Columbia Museum, which does a brilliant job of outlining the history of the province, from its First Nations peoples to the Gold Rush, with interactive exhibits and displays. When heading back to Vancouver via Swartz Bay, take some time to explore The Butchart Gardens, a 55-acre botanical oasis that's been growing for over 100 years–it's especially pretty to visit on a fall weekend when the autumnal colors are turning.

The capital city of B.C. is a must see if you've come to Vancouver Island. A beautiful city that reminds many of England, it has the most temperate climate in Canada. Everything that you are looking for is there: hiking, biking, shopping, restaurants, bars, museums, cruise ships, whale watching, the list is endless. We highly recommend one of the "ghost tours" and you MUST visit the Fairmont Empress hotel. With shops, restaurants and a feeling like no other hotel, we have spent lots of time just wandering/getting lost within it.

VIctoria is really more than a day trip unless you travel by small charter sea plane such as Harbour Air. If it is within your budget to fly over for the day, the journey is as much fun as the destination as the views of the gulf islands are fantastic by air. the other option for traveling to our Capitol city is by Ferry, which entails a 50 minute drive to the Tsawassen terminal and then a ferry ride which is 1 hour and 35 minutes. IF you decided to travel to VIctoria by ferry, we highly recommend that you make a reservation through BC ferries.
