Good walking tour; tip only! - Very good tour. The guide was very knowledgeable. It was about three hours total, but it was not walking a long distance. Walks were short distances and then stops for discussion. I recommend you go to the Empress Hotel after the tour for a drink at the newly renovated bar. Very nice!

Good historical knowledge... - Good historical knowledge of Victoria Very hard to hear the leader as the amplifier didn't do much good. Quite disjointed, not an easy story to follow, lost interest early.
