Hello! I moved to Victoria 20 years ago with my family and have been in love with this beautiful city ever since! I love to show off Victoria's gorgeous scenery, hidden gems, beautiful vistas, unique neighbourhoods, and historical buildings! I started my career as a tour guide in 2006 leading private small bike tours along beautiful flat trails from Victoria to the quaint town of Sidney. I enjoyed this immensely and in 2012 decided to get my class 4 driver's license so I could do small group passenger tours as well! I drive a very comfortable, large Ford Transit Van with large windows for sightseeing. I can accommodate up to 10 passengers comfortably. I pick up right at the Cruise Ship Terminal, Seattle/Victoria Clipper and Coho Ferry Terminal, Harbour Air Seaplane and all hotels in Victoria and Oak Bay. In my spare time I love to ride my bike along our beautiful trails with my good friend and fellow tour guide Melanie, as well as paddle-board in the calm waters of Tod Inlet by the Butchart Gardens. I have a passion for travelling and have seen many countries in different parts of the world. I love to see the world from the eyes of a local and bring this to my private tours. I would love to provide you a personable, private tour of Victoria and surrounding areas. My tours are flexible and may be accommodated to the interests of your small group! Certificate of Excellence - TripAdvisor Class 4 driver’s license unrestricted - required to do private tours for 10+ passengers in British Columbia. Passenger Transportation License #70865.
