Traveler Reviews

Darwin shared so many stories and hidden gems of Victoria. We will now go back and explore in detail. I did not know Victoria as a "haunted" city.

Darwin shared so many stories and hidden gems of Victoria. We will now go back and explore in detail. I did not know Victoria as a "haunted" city.

We had the pleasure of spending our first full day in Victoria with Darwin of Surfside Adventure Tours! He is super knowledgeable and personable and we felt as though we were being shown around town by a relative! He showed us ALL the highlights of this beautiful city and gave us personal insights and recommendations that were on point each time! We feel so grateful that we had him as our tour guide for our memorable trip to this MAGICAL place. We also left something of sentimental value in the van and Darwin went out of his way to bring it back to us the next day which really meant a lot to my grandmother and we are truly thankful. We recommend this tour to anyone coming to the area: Please explore Victoria with Darwin! You will not be disappointed! -J & D Tucker and Family.

We highly recommend this tour. Darwin met us at the Harbour Air terminal and spent fours hours with us showing us the highlights of Victoria and Butchart Gardens. It was a great trip and worth every penny.

Darwin hosted our private tour through Victoria and Butchart Gardens. We had a comfortable ride in his large van with our group of 8. Darwin was friendly, knowledgeable and gave us a great day in the city and gardens and took us to the best sandwich place in town. We can't wait to go back and experience more of the city with him as our guide.
