    As we reflect on our summer this far we would be remiss not to mention the fantastic pedicab tour of Victoria. A smiling and enthusiastic Sara S took us on a wonderful tour of Victoria. Her enthusiasm and knowledge about historic Victoria was mind boggling. Her shinning personality made this adventure a trip of a lifetime. Her compassion for her fellow Victorias and tourists alike was on display as she gave directions to lost tourists and locals alike. We highly recommend a pedicab tour and outstandingly recommend Sara S as your tour guide. Enjoy.

    This was a fabulous experience! We had Alan as our driver and he was just wonderful. He showed us various sites around Victoria and gave us lots of interesting historical information. Very easy-going guy, takes good care of you by having blankets ready if needed, and really made the whole experience worthwhile. You definitely want to ask for Alan. Almost like having your own private guide. He was at least as much part of the experience as seeing Craigdarroch Castle.

    Kevin was our tour guide. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience! He showed us many of the city secrets, like the tea cup tree, and the fairy houses. The Government House grounds, and the Castle, were amazing to see from the back seat of the pedicab! We were also introduced to an awesome fish & chip place called Finest at Sea. We would gladly go again, and ask for Kevin!

    Soren Russow was a phenomenal guide. Extremely friendly, personable and easy to talk to. He is very knowledgeable and his role playing during the tour was fantastic. Our group feels he went above and beyond anything we have experienced on tours in other places. Soren is sincere and passionate about the tours which made our group feel at ease. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. We did four hours and covered a LOT of ground. The price was fair and comparable to other excursions on the cruise. Soren is accomplished at photography and took some amazing pictures of our group. We highly recommend PediCab and further recommend requesting Soren as your guide.
