Empress Hotel National Historic Site of Canada
As you make your way between each stop, you’ll explore the heart of downtown Victoria, starting near the picturesque Inner Harbour—one of the most iconic waterfronts in Canada. Along the route, you’ll pass by the historic Fairmont Empress Hotel, a landmark known for its grand architecture and famous afternoon tea.
You’ll stroll along the harbor walkway with views of the Parliament Buildings, often bustling with street performers, local artists, and seaplanes arriving on the water. The route continues through charming streets lined with heritage buildings, boutique shops, and hidden alleys that most visitors overlook.
Depending on your exact path, you may also pass through Bastion Square, one of Victoria’s oldest districts, rich with history and character. Throughout the experience, you’ll enjoy a mix of waterfront scenery and lively local neighborhoods—making the walk between each restaurant just as memorable as the tastings themselves.
