Aaah, Victoria. Sleepy little village, lost in the gentle mists of the West Coast Rain Forest. Wrong! The Oak Bay Guest House & Victoria's Historic Inns are offering a Heart-Pounding Adventures package that will thrill you with the wonders of nature: The seas around Victoria abound with killer whales, harbour seals, minke, gray and humpback whales; The majestic rain forests are rich with wildlife and adventure.
This Heart-Pounding Adventures package includes a 3 ½ hour whale watching tour with Eagle Wing Tours (whale sightings guaranteed). Then, take your pick of either a spectacular tree-top zip-line tour through a coastal rain forest or a more relaxing kayak tour along Victoria's coast; both tours are fully guided.
The zip-line tour is guaranteed to be 2 hours you will never forget. Or, for those of you who would like to continue your adventure on the water instead of in the air, take a 2 hour guided kayak tour and paddle the sheltered bays and hidden coves of Vitoria's waterfront. Remember that Victoria gets more sunshine than almost any other city in Canada!
In addition to nature's wildlife, the city offers its own version in the form of a vibrant night life. In the evening, when you want to kick back and let your heartbeat get back to normal, enjoy one of Victoria's great pubs. Enjoy live music nightly at the Irish Times and Bard & Banker or enjoy a round of darts the Penny Farthing. Then, at the end of the evening, if you happen to have a lager or 2 too many, don't worry about it- we'll pay the taxi home.

- Two nights' accommodation at the Oak Bay Guest House.
- 3½ hour whale watching expedition- guaranteed sightings May 20 to October 31.
