Victoria, named the 'Cycling Capital of Canada', is renowned as a city easily traveled on two wheels. Great cycling routes criss-cross the city.
Your route this morning has been carefully chosen avoiding uphill climbs. At Ogden Point pier your bike butler and guide will outfit you with a bicycle and safety gear that is suitable and comfortable for you.
Following a safety orientation join him/her on a leisurely two-hour circular route. Your guide will point out numerous points of political, cultural, social and historic significance, with tasting stops along the route highlighting Victoria's specialty culinary treats.
