About Victoria
Welcome to Victoria - the "City of Gardens"
This
intimate, sophisticated seaside city is the vacation capital
of Canada and the premier tourist destination in the Pacific
Northwest. Victoria is situated on the southern tip of Vancouver
Island and sparkles in one of Canada's mildest climates.
This area is the sunniest spot in the province and enjoys
the mildest climate in the country. Victoria's unique character
is deeply rooted in its 150-year history - a history full
of colourful people and fascinating tales. The city's British
colonial heritage is still very much in evidence, but contemporary
Victoria has a distinctly pacific northwest flavour. Today,
Victoria is best known as the capital city of British Columbia,
and as a world-renowned tourist destination. One of the
most visitor-friendly cities anywhere, Victoria is also
one of Canada's favourite places to call home. Greater Victoria
and its outlying areas now have a population of over 300,000,
and the one-time colonial outpost is alive with cosmopolitan
dining, superb shopping, a colourful nightlife and a full
complement of cultural offerings.
Guy
Crozier and Scott Marchant are native Victorians and have
an intimate knowledge of each neighborhood, municipality,
and all the surrounding areas. It is no coincidence that
they have both chosen this wonderful city as their home.
