Full description

The famous Butchart Gardens exist on the site of an exhausted limestone quarry. The first garden, the Sunken Garden, was built when the Butcharts hired a Japanese landscape architect to transform the quarry space into something beautiful.

On the 35-minute bus ride from Victoria, your experienced driver will provide an overview of Victoria’s historical past, present, and future.

Once the bus gets you to Butchart Gardens, you will have the opportunity to explore the enchanting grounds for yourself. The gardens span 55 acres and provide a total sensory experience.

The flowers and scents transform with the seasons, and you will have a spectacular experience no matter what the time of year.

As you wander the gardens, we encourage you to enjoy the view while sipping from a cup of coffee at one of the restaurants or seasonal cafés scattered across the grounds.

The gardens have become a major attraction on Vancouver Island, and have been honored as a National Historic Site of Canada because of their international popularity.

Well I was given the wrong time to go for my shuttle and the information I was given said that a tour of the gardens was included in the price so very surprised when I got up to the counter at the meet up point told me I was late as the shuttle leaves on the hour and not 9:30 as my voucher stated and then surprised again when told I had to pay 36.00 for the entry fee. I just looked again today and it definitely says a tour of the gardens included. Very misleading.
