They are good, knowledgeable people here. You can not only find things to do, ask questions and get directions. You can also book tickets for things, buy tickets and get personal recommendations. This is is also the spot where Ghostly Walks begin and we always appreciate the added bonus of being able to point people towards the toilets. Underneath the building you will find a gift shop, a full service restaurant and you can book a whale watching tour as well. The great part is the location. From the viewing area you can take stunning pictures of the Empress Hotel, the Parliament buildings, the inner harbour itself or the historic steamship terminal. This really is a fantastic business in a fantastic location and all they really want to do is help you out and make sure your trip to Victoria is the best trip it can be. Don't' wander around aimlessly, get some help and enjoy everything Victoria has to offer, you won't regret it!

Our visit to this tourism centre was unhelpful to say the least. Monosyllabic answers to my queries from a disinterested young woman whose expressions told me that she thought me an idiot and that she was not interested in helping me or interested in her job. She also told me she knew nothing about ferry passages nor local bus information. The local people in the city had been more helpful than this young person who appeared to be more interested in the computer in front of her. As seasoned travellers on one of our first visits (out of three) to Victoria, shame on this young woman who should not be a doing a job she is profoundly disinterested in. So that you can identify her for training purposes (if it is worth it) our visit was on 19th April, 2018 at around 4:00 p.m. Julie Ford (UK)

First time visiting, won't even come close to being my last. Absolutely beautiful and breathtaking! Everything about the city has something to be viewed. From the waterfront, to the downtown core. It's super easy to get around and I'm envious of anyone who lives here. We'll be back this summer to explore more. It has everything you can think of for ocean adventure. The people were very friendly and the restaurants were great. I hope this inspires exploration!

We got discounted tickets here! Which is a great place because most of the time you can skip the lines and it's always nice to get all your tickets in one place to save money! It is just right around the corner from the fairies! And if you need to parking is just $0.25 for five minutes which is plenty of time for you to run in and get your tickets! And they also have a map to show up where to go and ideas of what to do!
