Vancouver Island Rainforest Guided Hike with Private Guide

Darwin was an excellent guide all around! We have recently moved to Victoria, and he went above and beyond to help orient us to different communities, make recommendations, and tell us about local events. The hikes themselves were both informative and beautiful, giving us the chance to experience two quite different ecosystems, with a castle in the middle! We will be booking other tours in the future with Darwin.

Darwin was a wealth of knowledge regarding Victoria, he was Darwin Darwin was professional and friendly. He took us on a guided tour of the hidden gems within Victoria while giving us a workout!

This is a long overdue review of our tour with Darwin. Darwin was friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating. Our drive was a lovely and relaxed as Darwin fills us in on not only information about the local geography, but local issues and information about various local eateries. My husband has quite restrictive mobility issues and these were very much accommodated on our tour, and we still managed to have an amazing hike! I will definitely be returning to Victoria and will definitely be arranging another tour with Darwin. Actually cant wait, Vancouver Island is stunningly beautiful.

I was visiting my son in Victoria. Our guide picked us up at the door, on time.Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. He had stories to tell as we hiked through the forests. Rain was in the forecast and he provided umbrellas, just in case. We found our guided hike pleasant, interesting and mind-opening. The hike was personalized to our interests,level of experience and fitness. We thoroughly enjoyed and we would highly recommend this tour guide company to anyone who has an interest in nature, history and the great outdoors.

Cruise options for Victoria were very limited and I could not find a hike. After speaking to my agent and a few google searches, I found this hike. So glad I did! Darwin is very knowledgeable about the area and was a great guide. He was very accommodating in discussion our hiking options as well as making a last minute change due to my crew being really tired by the time we got to Victoria. He took us on a beautiful rain forest hike which ended at Tod Inlet. I got to see a lot of sea life we dont have here in Florida and it was a great photo spot. We were late getting off the boat so we did not have time to do the second hike so he took us to Craigdarroch Castle, the Governor's mansion and Mount Tolmie which was great! We would not have had time to see them all nor would we have known about Mt. Tolmie or the mansion. He dropped us off downtown with info on good pubs and directions on how to get home. I highly recommend this tour and guide!

Don't miss out on this spectacular value!We were extremely satisfied with our hike and special attention from our guide Darwin. He was very interested in our interests, and went the extra mile to show us a great experience. We look forward to another visit to Victoria, and utilize Darwin's expertise
