luvSClake Posted June 4, 2013 #1 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Can anyone give me some comments about the pub tour? I know there is more to see in Victoria, but thought it might be a nice way to end our cruise since we don't have much time in port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putterdude Posted June 4, 2013 #2 Share Posted June 4, 2013 There is no need to pay for a ship's pub crawl, Victoria's downtown is quite small and compact so most of the pubs are walkable on your own...a few would require a $5/$7 cab fare. Here is the beginning of a list: http://darcyspub.ca/ http://www.irishtimespub.ca/ http://www.strathconahotel.com/TheStickyWicketPub.aspx http://www.bedfordregency.com/pub.htm http://www.bardandbanker.com/ http://www.canoebrewpub.com/ http://www.spinnakers.com/gastro-brewpub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the beginning of a list: Thanks, we have been leaning towards doing it on our own, just thought it might be fun with a group. We will play this one by ear and if we decide to sign up for the ships tour will do it online. Won't be a big deal if it fills up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottbee Posted June 4, 2013 #4 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Add the breweries that are must visit as well (although not sure if they're open on evenings) Vancouver Island Brewery (Govt St @ approx bay St) Phillips Brewery (Govt st @ approx Discovery St) Buckerfields Brewery / Swans Pub (Store St @ Johnson St) However, if you're going to limit yourself to just a few, the two not to miss are Spinniker's & Swans.
