After picking you up, your guide will take you on a guided tour of the Historical Butchart Garden. The countless blooms and Victorian-era structures are unique and sure to impress.
Following this, we will meet all the residents of the Sidney Aquarium. Get a glimpse of what lies under the waters surrounding Vancouver Island. Many fish, anemones, jellies and colourful creatures inhabit our waters. The aquarium also features a touch pool where you can experience a finger hug from urchins, sea stars and anemones.

Many 800+ year-old trees await your visit and will greet you alongside eagles, migratory birds and the seasonal salmon run.
