Cruise Ship Guests visiting Butchart Gardens

If you are arriving into the Port of Victoria, BC you may already have booked your shore excursion to Butchart Gardens.... then again maybe you have not.

One of the easiest ways to get to the Butchart Gardens and to ensure you get back to the ship is by travelling with CVS Cruise Victoria. Cruise Victoria is a bus tour Company and they run regular tours to the Butchart Gardens in addition to Victoria City Tours.
