These are the things I enjoy most and want to share with you on your visit to Victoria, British Columbia: Exploring new and fascinating places, discovering gardens and heritage buildings, tasting a local dish by the sea, exploring the maze of streets on Antique Row and China Town, and sharing good stories. You will be enchanted by the city of Victoria, situated at the southern tip of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, a place rich in ecological splendour, with history kept alive in its many heritage buildings and harbours. Victoria is the unique place I chose as my home because I love and appreciate a place keen on protecting nature and animals, and a place that promotes culture and the art as well as the acknowledgement of its First Nation people. This region of the world is spectacular. The climate is the mildest in Canada. Our summers are never too hot and winters temperatures rarely freeze. The magical beauty of Salt Spring Island, my favourite summer tour, is only a short ferry ride from Victoria. It is a fantastic place to explore, especially with me, your local guide who knows the scenic routes and very special places in this beautiful part of the world. I love my work and I invested in a beautiful van, comfortable and with big windows. I have excellent driving skills and have a license that would let me drive a bus. Both vehicles are passenger licensed. My aim is to make you the visitor, have a wonderful experience doing and seeing things that interest you and that will give you wonderful memories of your trip to Victoria and Vancouver Island. The parks, beaches, gardens, the spectacular landscape and quaint colourful communities inspire my tour plans that I set out to create especially with you in mind. I take time to create a tour that is personalized just for you and your people so that you see and do what you like and at your pace. Take a look at my garden, Island, and city tours and feel free to choose the places that most attract you. I will take you there by the most scenic routes in and around Victoria, BC, Vancouver Island, and on Salt Spring Island. I can conduct tours in fluent Spanish too. I am a full time tour guide in beautiful Victoria, BC. I own a comfortable mini van that is Passenger Licensed (PT#72124) I customize your tour to suit your schedule, interests, and pace. Places you want to visit, can be included and planned for your tour. For example, you may choose to go to Butchart Gardens and visit Vineyards as well. You may wish to go for a hike and take in historical waterways. I have been a tour guide for over 11 years and have conducted hundreds of customized tours for visitors that come from all over the world. I am also able to provide the tour in Spanish and in Hebrew.

Lovely tour with excellent, knowledgeable guide. Gave us a great overview of Victoria, which is very beautiful. Loved the stop at the Marina where we were lucky enough to be able to see the seals. Beautiful scenery and a view of the town, well customised for me to avoid too much walking. A great day thank-you

Since Elizabeth was sick, her colleague John led our tour. John was wonderful. He was charming and informative. Everyone in our group was very pleased. We came from the city of Vancouver so the day was long but very worthwhile.

Elizabeth is a great tour guide. We had two different tours and she was extremely knowledgeable about the Butchart Gardens and historical locations in and around Victoria. Elizabeth had a very nice van to tour around Victoria. My wife, my daughter and I really had fun on the tours! We highly recommend her as a tour guide for anywhere in British Columbia.
