On this personalized 60-minute horse-drawn carriage tour of Victoria, take a step back in time and experience the lush greenery of Beacon Hill Park, magnificent ocean views along the Salish Sea waterfront and historic beauty of Victoria's charming James Bay neighborhood. Beacon Hill Park is a haven of serenity in the heart of the city with its immaculate flower gardens, tranquil duck ponds, children’s petting farm and areas of natural landscape. Donated to the city in 1858, the park has been preserved as a public space for generations, and remains a protected area for wildlife and native plants. Enjoy the highlights of the park from your carriage, before taking a scenic journey along the Salish Sea waterfront. Pass Mile Zero of the Trans-Canada Highway and experience stunning ocean views of the Olympic Mountain range in the United States. Return through the charming neighborhood of James Bay, hearing stories about the area's rich history and passing the birthplace of renowned artist, Emily Carr. Each tour is personalized, with the right balance of historical information, local folklore and simple relaxation as you sit back and enjoy the clip-clop of your horse's hooves.
