  • Government House
    A visit to Government House offers a peaceful and elegant escape surrounded by nature and history. As the official residence of the Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia, it features beautifully maintained gardens open to the public, including a native plant garden and rose garden. The grounds provide a quiet place to rest, explore, and enjoy views of the ocean and Olympic Mountains. With its stately architecture and serene atmosphere, it's a hidden gem that showcases both the natural beauty and civic heritage of Victoria.
  • Craigdarroch Castle
    Stopping at Craigdarroch Castle adds a dramatic and historic highlight to your ride. Perched on a hilltop with sweeping views of Victoria, this 19th-century mansion stuns with its towering stonework, stained glass, and ornate wood interiors. Built by coal baron Robert Dunsmuir, it tells a fascinating story of wealth and ambition during the Victorian era. The ride up offers a fun challenge, and the reward is a glimpse into a bygone world of grandeur—plus panoramic photo ops from the castle grounds.
  • Ross Bay Cemetery
    Ross Bay Cemetery adds a unique and peaceful stop on a bike tour through Victoria. This historic site, shaded by tall trees and bordered by ocean views, is the resting place of many notable figures from British Columbia’s past. As you ride through its winding paths, you’ll likely spot deer grazing quietly among the gravestones, adding to the tranquil, almost storybook atmosphere. It's a reflective place full of local history, natural beauty, and unexpected wildlife encounters that make it both memorable and moving.
  • Clover Point Park
    Cycling to Clover Point Park offers a refreshing waterfront highlight on any Victoria bike tour. Situated on the Strait of Juan de Fuca, it treats you to dramatic ocean views—with the Olympic Mountains and Mount Baker as majestic backdrops—making it a favorite for photos, storm watching, and sunset gazing. Many cyclists appreciate the paved bike paths and easy connections to Dallas Road and Beacon Hill Park. With basic amenities like restrooms, water fountains, and bike racks, it's a well‑equipped pit stop before continuing your journey along the scenic harbor routes.
  • Beacon Hill Park
    Beacon Hill Park is a delightful bike‑tour destination—75 ha of tree‑lined trails, ponds, flower gardens, sports fields, and even peacocks and swans. A highlight is the majestic Totem Pole: a 127‑ft free‑standing cedar carved in 1956 by Chief Mungo Martin, his son David, and Henry Hunt. Once the tallest totem pole in the world, it still ranks among the tallest and dominates the park skyline. Crisscrossing the park, well‑maintained bike paths connect you to the totem pole, calm lawns, hidden pavilions, and the iconic “Mile 0” marker of the Trans‑Canada Highway. Whether you're here for wildlife, history, or scenery, Beacon Hill adds a perfect blend of nature, culture, and rest to your ride.
  • Fisherman's Wharf
    Cycling to Fisherman’s Wharf brings delightful waterfront charm and discovery to your Victoria tour. The colorful floating homes and rustic docks create a playful, photogenic vibe right by the water.
  • Legislative Assembly Of British Columbia
    Visiting the Legislative Assembly during your Victoria bike tour offers a perfect blend of grand architecture, civic heritage, and convenient rest. Nestled on the Inner Harbour waterfront, its neo‑Baroque facade with copper domes, gold‑leaf dome statue, and illuminated fountain creates a memorable visual landmark.
  • Empress Hotel National Historic Site of Canada
    Visiting The Empress Hotel offers a perfect blend of history, elegance, and stunning scenery. As you cycle up to this iconic landmark, you'll be struck by its grand Edwardian architecture and ivy-covered façade. Nestled along Victoria’s picturesque Inner Harbour, it's a scenic spot for a rest, and photo. The hotel’s rich history—hosting royalty and celebrities since 1908—adds a sense of timeless charm.
  • Victoria’s Chinatown National Historic Site
    Pedaling through Victoria’s Chinatown National Historic Site on your bike tour is a cultural delight packed into a compact three-block enclave. You’ll enter under the vibrant 38 ft Gate of Harmonious Interest—an ornate red‑and‑gold arch symbolizing unity—then weave through heritage brick buildings, alleyways, and hidden courtyards characteristic of mid‑19th‑century Chinese‑Canadian architecture. Pause to explore Fan Tan Alley, North America’s narrowest commercial street, once home to gambling dens and opium factories.
  • Fan Tan Alley
    Cycling to Fan Tan Alley offers a quirky and memorable stop in Victoria’s Chinatown. Known as North America’s narrowest commercial street, this hidden gem is packed with history and character. As you navigate its tight, winding passageways—once home to gambling dens and opium factories—you’ll feel the vibrant spirit of old Chinatown come alive. Explore unique artisan shops, cozy cafés, and colorful murals tucked between the buildings. The alley’s distinct charm makes for fantastic photos and a fun, unexpected detour. Fan Tan Alley is a perfect blend of culture, history, and urban adventure on your Victoria ride.
