Duty free in Victoria

[billsrobb]

Is there a duty free store in Victoria, BC where I can buy liquor? If not is there one in Vancover, BC?

Thanks,

Robb

Only at the airport and only if you're booked on an international flight. Sorry but these aren't duty free ports; don't think there is one at the cruise terminal. You'll be paying Canadian prices complete with all of the lovely taxes associated with liquor.

Where are you arriving from, and departing to? Duty free is generally only sold post-checkin of international routes.

You will not find duty free at the cruise terminal in Victoria or in Vancouver you will have to depend on the ships duty free...sorry.

If you flying out of Vancouver directly to the US you will find a duty free shop at YVR.

Thanks everyone for your replies.

The cruise ship does not carry what I want so I was hoping, I will be on a cruise so I guess I am out of luck.

There's lots of liquor stores in Victoria/Vancouver - you just won't get a good price for whatever it is you want.

The only booze we regularly import from BC (by car) are half-cases of the excellent hard ciders made in BC, way better than their WA counterparts. Major pain in getting them, however.
