7 very long and tiring days but I’ll say the entire tour was worth every penny and each pain that we have now. We had an amazing journey traveling from Vancouver to Chinatown, Olympic Cauldron, Butchart Gardens, Valemount, Bow Lake, Emerald Lake, Natural Bridge and many other places. The bus was very well conditioned which allowed us to relax during the time we weren’t on foot. The accommodation was good too. Had everything one needs to stay comfortably in a hotel room.

The trip (Victoria and Butchart Gardens) was competitively priced and had pick-up points in various areas. Everything was well-organized and on-time. A star taken off for the confusion with the pick-up address and link to a wrong map, however a courtesy call on the evening before the trip reminded me of the departure and confirmed the location.
