She is wonderful! Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Thanks for the tour. I will be headed to Victoria in June. I'm looking forward to the many places I will check out. One of my favourite things to do is to rent a scooter and travel along the waterfront. I will be doing that for sure when I come back to Victoria.
Have fun! Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
You guys sure walked a long way through some of our favorite places to walk around Victoria. Barb’s Fish n Chips at Fisherman’s Wharf is famous and delicious so you will have to try them if you c9me again. We live in Sidney about half hour from Victoria near airport but do love walking Dallas road seawall and there has been construction since your visit that has made it an even nicer walk with wider paths and more seating along the way. We often come down to walk and check out cruise ships coming in. Discovery Princess arriving for first time in a few days so will definitely be coming to see her, the next ship we want to book. Thanks for the detailed video - was fun seeing it through your eyes. (Subscribed)
We will be back there in September. Probably just walk around again. The ship gets in in the evening for some reason.
Thank you for your tours. I was not sure what to do in Haines & Victoria when we go in July. However 20 mile bike ride would kill me 😂
Shaun Griffin it actually wasn’t that bad. It was fairly level the whole way. However you don’t have to ride 20 miles. You could just ride around town, although it’s on the side of a hill. Thank you for your comments and don’t forget to subscribe to our channel.
We go there in latter June as our last stop on our Alaska cruise. Thanks for the walking tour. We are thinking of doing something similar vs paying for a sightseeing excursion.
We hope you enjoy yourselves! Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Welcome to Canada!
Thank You! Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Last time I went to Victoria in 2015. I think I went to the right side of pier and walked in residential area. There were a lot of beautiful buildings.
We came back from that way. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Very informative. Thank you. I really liked the captions with tips and comments.This video is going to be very useful in my trip to Victoria
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for your comments and thanks for subscribing.
The kid screaming in Beacon Hill Park was a peacock.What you referred to as mainland Canada was the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state.Welcome to Canada ! CHEERS
That's funny! We used to have peacocks. We wondered why we didn't notice. Thank you for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
Live there and I love it! If you went more downtown you would have seen more cool architecture
Next time. Thanks for your comments and we hope you are a subscriber.
I was there in 2018,was bad with homeless/druggies all over,I was expecting a great China Town,but was very disappointed..I love the buildings and the homes around..seem like they have cleaned up the city..
They must have. We are going back in September. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Oh boy ! You should see it now! :-(
People do live in those houseboats on fisherman's wharf.
That’s what we thought. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.

“They decorated this to look like the Native were here. . .”
The Natives WERE and STILL ARE here, Sir.
You are correct. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
In the park those agapanthus and 'big flower things' were alliums----onion family
Thank you for that information. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
We’re going this summer , my husband and ( second honeymoon- Bob never gave me the first honeymoon) Alaska - Victoria - Seattle
We have lots of videos of those places on our channel. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Thanks for the video! What month were you in Victoria?
Thanks. We were in Victoria in the middle of June. Don't forget to subscribe.
What a great tour! My daughter and I plan on doing the same exact thing in April. About how long start to finish?
Our walk was about 4 miles long. I think we took around four hours to do it. Of course you could do it faster if you wanted to. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
@@PortMonkeys Thanks for the reply!! That's really helpful in planning our day. We didn't want to shell out big bucks for a ship excursion but wanted to make sure this was doable.
It’s 2023 and those hotel prices have at least doubled if not tripled.
Wow! That’s a lot! Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
17:25 the the building on the right is no longer there, it was torn down to put up multi million dollar condos, it is nice to see the old one!
Progress?!?! Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
@@PortMonkeys It is so nice to see someone do a great job of where we are. I was born here almost 60 years and my dad was born here in 1912!! he was at one time a Saanich police officer when there was only 5 officers on the whole force. If you have any questions I may be able to answer them!
If you talk to a local it’s nice and they will help you.
Thanks for visiting. Thanks for your comments and please subscribe to our channel.
21days dang!!!
Our next cruise is 32 days around South America. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
You may have missed Dragon Alley as well. It is just up a way in china town.
We think we did miss it.
You will need to do some internet research to see all your available options.
We recommend learning about your ports before you go. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
would be nice to mention the month you made a video
Sometimes we do. Perhaps we should every time? This video is from June 14, 2019. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
We got off the ship and on to a bus it was free
We like to walk. Thanks for your comments and please subscribe to our channel.
Wow, this looks like the most boring stop on any cruise ever. Seriously, there is no reason to get off the boat based upon this video.
It’s a nice town. Easily walkable. Oh wait, you were poking fun at my video. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel
@@PortMonkeys I was actually being serious about it. I was trying to decide whether or not to get off the boat in Victoria. Your video helped make a decision for me. I have watched your other videos and they helped me decide what to do.
I'm so sorry for Canada. Most things about a good Canada are not true, Including clean cities - beaches, and forests. It's a big lie. The first time I arrived in Vancouver in 2018, I was shocked. As soon as I left the airport door, I saw tissue, disposable glasses, and other garbage left in the city. The further I went, the more I saw them. Before I moved to Canada, I lived in Georgia, Armenia, Turkey, Serbia, The United States, and for a short time in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Netherlands, Germany, and England, but I have never seen the amount of garbage that people leave in different Canadian cities. Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, and Quebec are no less than Vancouver. Canadian and Canada Governments don't care about this tragedy. I think everything that says about Canada as a clean and powerful culture is not true. You don't need to travel to Canada to see this. Just watch some videos about walking in downtown Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, and Quebec. You will find the truth. Impossible for you to walk in a Canadian city and you don't see the dark side of that. Everywhere you will see garbage. You will never see this in Europe, Australia, the United States, Japan, and Korea. This amount of waste is not even seen in Malaysian, Indonesian, or Thailand cities. It is impossible for you to use public transport and not see a lot of garbage at stations or on the route. You will be surprised to find a lot of garbage even in the woods - by the rivers and on the beaches in Canada. I wish the Canadians woke up and had no enmity with their country.
To be fair, I randomly looked at videos from downtown Manchester and Concord in New Hampshire - Philadelphia - Detroit - Chicago - New York - Baltimore - Denver - Nashville, and Knoxville in the United States, and Toronto - Quebec - Montreal - Winnipeg - Calgary - Vancouver - Victoria - Ottawa and Thunder Bay in Canada. we should be fair. The bitter truth must be accepted. Without any exaggeration. Completely impartial. I have to say that I didn't see a single piece of garbage in any of the US videos to convince myself. Without exaggeration, in all Canadian cities, there must have been a piece of garbage on the ground less than every hundred meters. It must have an important reason. I do not know. But this is a bitter truth. You can try. This country should be brought closer to its exaggerated claim. the truth is bitter. Certainly, some Asian countries such as Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and even Malaysia are much cleaner compared to Canada. Of course, we should not forget that Canada claims to be one of the 10 cleanest countries in the world. And Vancouver claims to be one of the 5 cleanest cities in the world. Please go to East Hastings or Victoria Drive or Commercial Drive or West Georgia or Broadway or Main Street and judge for yourself. I am 50 years old and have traveled to 26 countries. Canada is far from its claims. I saw, homeless people, pooping and peeing everywhere and it's so common. nobody cares. I was shocked again. I endured for 3 years but every day going worst. late in 2022, I decided to move to the east because I thought that place has a stronger culture. I chose Montreal. I had heard it is the capital of art and civilization in Canada. it was absolutely wrong. Canada is Canada. I was shocked again, again, and again. the wave of homelessness, graffiti, vandalism, bad smell, terrible infrastructure especially roads in or out of the city, and above all, you can see trash everywhere. plastic bags, tissues, water bottles, and disposable cups. You cannot see any street or park or public place without these. This is impossible. surprisingly nobody cares. neither the people nor the government!!!!!!! please, don't be fooled by the advertisement about a good Canada. please, be careful. most of the things about a good Canada are deception This country is disappointing. Please, Please, Please, don't immigrate to Canada you would regret it absolutely. this is not a developed country, Canada is a developing country with huge serious problems.

The streets are very clean in Victoria given that it’s ilegal to litter so there are fines for doing so. In Beacon Hill park, you missed the petting zoo which is such fun entertainment.
