About This Trip

Get a taste of what it would have been like to be one of Jennie Butchart’s personally-served guests and indulge in an experience steeped in tradition with an award-winning tea at The Butchart Gardens.

Dine on a phenomenal array of sweet and savory treats that will leave you dreaming of your next bite before immersing yourself in thousands of beautiful blooms as you stroll through the iconic 55-acre grounds.

The perfect opportunity to combine two classic Victorian experiences, this trip is an absolute must for all ages!

Enjoy a scenic cruise from downtown Seattle to downtown Victoria on the Victoria Clipper V fast ferry. Hop on the double-decker motorcoach at our Victoria terminal for a scenic drive past Victoria’s landmarks. Upon arrival at The Butchart Gardens, cozy up inside the Dining Room Restaurant (1pm or 2:30pm sitting) and choose from a selection of nine loose leaf teas paired with a classic three-tiered assortment of goodies, ranging from ginger scones to salmon pinwheels.

Afterward, wander along The Gardens’ intimate paths and immerse yourself in floral splendor as you explore the stunning 55 acre grounds. Enjoy a motorcoach ride back to the Fairmont Empress Hotel and use the rest of the evening to check out Victoria’s downtown core.

Have luggage? No problem. If you are joining a tour departing directly from our Victoria terminal, we offer complimentary luggage delivery service to our Victoria downtown hotel partners, or luggage storage at our Victoria terminal until you return.

 

Use your second day in town to further explore the quaint city of Victoria before enjoying a relaxing cruise back to Seattle in the evening. Take a scenic stroll along Dallas Road, go for a bike ride through Beacon Hill Park, wander through the historic Craigdarroch Castle or discover a few of our other favorite activities:

Learn more about the history of Victoria at the Royal BC Museum, say “hello” to the harbor seals at the popular Fisherman’s Wharf or discover a few of our other favorite activities:
