A
scenic cruise aboard The Victoria Clipper will bring you to the quaint
“Old English” town of Victoria. Dubbed the “City of Gardens,” this
intimate, sophisticated seaside City is the vacation capital of Canada
and one of the premiere tourist spots in the Pacific Northwest.
Victoria’s unique character is deeply rooted in its 150-year history, a
history full of colorful people and fascinating tales. Best
known as the capital city of British Columbia, and one of the most visitor-friendly cities anywhere,
Victoria is alive with cosmopolitan dining, superb shopping, a colorful nightlife
and a full complement of cultural offerings.
