Absolutely! Victoria Coastal Tours offers transportation for all kinds of travel needs, including trips outside Greater Victoria. We have a range of vehicles — including SUVs and vans — suited to longer journeys, and our guides know the best routes and timing across Vancouver Island. To book an out-of-town trip, just contact us with your travel details and we'll take it from there.

All of our drivers hold a valid Class 4 driver's license issued by the BC Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, and each one passes a criminal record check and driving history check before joining our team. We also hold National Safety Code (NSC) certification, the federal standard covering driver training, vehicle maintenance, and safety recordkeeping — so you can count on a safe, professional experience on every tour.

Yes — Victoria Coastal Tours can build a custom itinerary for multi-day trips. Contact us with your travel details and we'll work with you on a plan, including add-ons like airport transfers and hotel pickups along the way.

Of course! We know pets are part of the family. Just let us know in advance that you'll be bringing your dog, and we'll accommodate accordingly. We ask that all pets stay leashed and well-behaved during the tour for everyone's comfort and safety.

Summer (June–August) brings the warmest, most reliable weather and the most festivals and outdoor events. If you'd rather skip the crowds and higher prices, the shoulder seasons — spring (April–May) and fall (September–October) — are still very pleasant. Victoria's winters are mild by Canadian standards, so it's a good year-round destination too.

All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Just let us know about any age or mobility considerations when you book, and we'll tailor the tour to make sure everyone's comfortable.

There's something for everyone: Butchart Gardens, the Fairmont Empress, and the BC Legislature are the classics, but don't overlook Beacon Hill Park, Craigdarroch Castle, Ogden Point, the Butterfly Gardens, Fisherman's Wharf, Hatley Castle, the Malahat Skywalk, and the shops along Government Street. Ask your guide, we're happy to build a tour around your interests.

We prioritize your safety and comfort, including when weather doesn't cooperate:

1. Cancellations made more than 24 hours before your scheduled tour receive a full refund.
2. Cancellations within 24 hours of the tour are not eligible for a refund.
3. Pre-purchased admission tickets are non-refundable under any circumstances.
4. In the event of severe weather, Victoria Coastal Tours may modify or cancel a tour for everyone's safety.
5. If a tour is cancelled for weather, we'll notify you as soon as possible and offer alternative arrangements or a refund at our discretion.

We're committed to low-impact, sustainable tourism, and our electric vehicles are part of that. They also make for a quieter, smoother ride, no engine noise or vibration, and lower operating costs help us keep our tours competitively priced. While you're with us, we'll also point you toward local businesses, food, and products so your visit supports the Victoria economy too.

We can provide infant seats, forward/rear-facing child seats, and booster seats, in accordance with BC's Motor Vehicle Act Regulation (Division 36):
