Things to do in Victoria, BC


Whether you're planning your itinerary from afar or you are already in town, I have designed these pages with travellers and newcomers in mind. If you still can't find what you are looking for, let me know and I will try to add to my pages!

Looking for a place to eat? Browse through my guide to Victoria's Restaurants -- we have more per capita than the average city, and a higher failure rate, too. The list is alphabetical and I have something sassy to say about almost every one.

Looking for a bargain? Check out my list of free & cheap things to do in Victoria. Everything from free admission days at various attractions to the cheapest movie deals in town.

Perhaps you are considering parting with some of your tourist dollars at one of our many "attractions". Check my hits & misses list first to avoid disappointment!


Or maybe you are considering getting acquainted with Victoria by taking a tour. I have provided a list of guided tours, though I have not tried many of them personally. [Also starting points for self-guided tours.]
If shopping is your pleasure.. we have plenty, and I have selected some highlights. As a rule, Victoria seems to reject major chain stores, but that may change as more move to increasingly upscale Government street.

Finally, I have included some entertainment information -- theatre, movies, local sports and so on. Victoria's weather allows for outdoor activities year-round, but if the weather is miserable, there are plenty of indoor options.
