The Butchart Gardens is an easy 30–40 minute drive out of downtown Victoria. Having your own car will allow you as much time as you want to stroll around, smell the flowers and possibly enjoy tea or lunch at the gardens. Clipper Vacations can include admission and Afternoon Tea along with your car rental — an economical option for families. Curious about Sidney and the Saanich Peninsula? In addition to The Butchart Gardens, the area is known for small wineries, local farms, cider mills and the quaint seaside town of Sidney. Although Sidney boasts more bookstores than any other town in Canada, it is also home to Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre and many shops and restaurants. Always wondered what is “Up Island”? Take a drive about one hour north to Chemainus, a town of about 3,900, famous for its building murals, or explore Ladysmith, BC. Nestled up on a cozy hillside, Ladysmith is one of the prettiest towns in Canada and is a scenic 55 miles north of Victoria. Continuing north on the island, are Parksville and Campbell River. Tofino or Ucluelet on the west coast of the island are perfect for storm watching, surfing or a fishing or wildlife adventure — plan ahead to spend a few days. Want to see more islands? Visit Salt Spring Island via a BC Ferry. Renowned for artisan galleries, gift shops, and dining as well as activities such as golfing, hiking and a self guided gallery tour.
