Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE BLOSSOMS

Cherry‑blossom tunnels at peak bloom

The tour chases spring’s fleeting spectacle—your guide navigates residential streets and garden approaches where the pink and white canopies are in full show during Blossom Season.

THE GARDENS

Formal and intimate garden stops

Stops include Government House’s formal plantings, the intimate heritage setting of Abkhazi Garden (the provided tour includes the $10 entrance donation), and the varied landscapes of Beacon Hill Park.

THE CRUISE

Effortless, scenic eBike riding

Pedal‑assist eBikes let the group cover more ground than a walking tour at a relaxed pace, with regular pauses to take photos, enjoy views, and hear light stories about Victoria’s garden culture.
