CC Road Trips- Victoria Day Trip

Trip Information

The capital city of British Columbia, Victoria is home to historic Buildings, great shopping and some of the best museums in Western Canada. Established in 1843 as a fort for the Hudson’s Bay Trading Company, you can still see many British legacies such as double-decker buses, horse drawn carriages, and original Buildings. Though rich in history, Victoria is now a busy city with entertainment and a wide range of street festivals & activities. Even today, you can go to the iconic Bay Mall for some of the best shopping on the island! While for those nature lovers, there is also a beautiful walk along the water front that allows for the most amazing natural views in Victoria.
