Published on Oct, 2024
Alan was a wonderful guide. He was very knowledgeable about Victoria and excited to share it. We saw many beautiful places. The van was large, comfortable and clean. I would definitely use Surfside again.

Great way to see the City!

Alan gave us a wonderful and informative two hour tour of beautiful Victoria. We almost certainly saw more of the city than any of our fellow cruise passengers. We highly recommend the tour.
Great tour!

Our driver was wonderful and had planned our excursion down to the last minute. We saw beautiful sights and he was very good about answering our questions and talking about Victoria. We will tell our cruising friends to ask for him.
