Victoria, Mahe Seychelles - Did our own thing by Taxi tour. Next day Praslin - not in the CC list. - Pre arranged speedboat was terrific. Didn't worry us that the shops were shut. Circled the Island by boat, swimming, sorkelling, visiting the land turled and beaches. Difficult to do by road, boat is best. Read Less

It was such a relief to be off the boat! The tour was a lot of driving and boat rides. But overall great! The lunch buffet on the island of Praslin was delicious and so refreshing! Read Less

We walked as the shuttle to downtown was a major ripoff at $30 for the two of us. But Victoria itself is always lovely. We've been there many times on our own and I recommend the Royal BC Museum and Craigdarroch Castle. Read Less

I went into the city which was wonderful. Read Less

It is cheaper to rent a car and explore the island on your own. You can walk or take a quick cab ride downtown to get a car. $35 for 24 hours. Read Less

We love to walk so we walked to the Castle on our first day and just walked to town on our second day. The weather was GREAT vboth days. Read Less

Buchart Gardens is beautiful. Make sure you have enough time to spend there. Also the downtown area is very nice. Read Less

Very nice small city with lots to see/do in and out of town. Read Less

Great port. We toured on our own using readily available public transit. We sat Butchart Gardens and Craigdarroch Castle. Read Less

We've been to Victoria before so didn't feel the need to sight see this trip. Uber/Lyft are currently not an option in Victoria. There were shuttle buses from port to town (my parents used this as they have mobility issues) I can't remember the cost for the shuttle ($15/pp???-I could be off). Hubby and I walked to the harbor via the walkway (maybe a mile-ish????) very accessible if walking isn't an issue for you. Lovely walk actually. Popped into pubs and had some local brews and watched our local college football game at Darcy's pub. Friends went on the mansion tour via the ship and liked it a lot. Other friends went to the gardens, said it had a few things in bloom, but they didn't overly enjoy it. We've done that one before and we liked it in the past. Overall, easy, laid back port of call. Love Victoria. Read Less

We have been here before and just wanted to walk around and get some souvenirs, very nice buses Read Less

Although we were only here for a short time we were able to walk into town and enjoy a nice dinner Read Less

We have been to Victoria previously. It was nice day so opted to walk the breakwater out to the lighthouse, about 1 mile round trip. Fisherman's Wharf next, maybe another mile or more. Scenic little area with floating restaurants and houses. They had cute little water taxi tug boats. We asked if we could take it back to the ships pier but that was not an option so we took a bicycle taxi instead. Read Less

The ship arrived after dark when everything was closing, and was there for less than 4 hours. Read Less

Victoria is a beautiful city and great for walking around the shops and restaurants. A must see. Read Less

Got off the ship at 8:30 PM and had to be back at 11:30 we walked into Victoria. Looks like a beautiful city that I would love to have spent more time in. Again this should’ve been noted as a day at sea Read Less

Beautiful city at night. The view was great but not enough time to really explore the city. Read Less

You and 12000 cruisers in town for 2 hours before you have to come back and pack. Read Less

We got off and took a taxi to town and walked around for a while then had a drink and snacks at a local pub. Very nice stop but very short. Only 4 hours in port for us. Read Less

Three cruise ships in town at once. Didn't quite understand the port not bringing Bliss in for the entire day so we could all spend lots more money. Even though the previous port was cancelled, and we could have spent the entire day in Victoria, Canadian officials refused to allow us to dock earlier. With 4 deep water docks, this made no sense. We piddled all the way back from Glacier Bay in order to delay our arrival. Town was beautiful but extremely crowded. Weather was delighful. Read Less

Victoria is gorgeous, but we didn't have enough time on the island. Read Less

Beautiful town which was exceptionally clean and historic. Read Less

Not anything exciting to do in a dark 4 hrs. tried walking a bit just to get off the ship since we missed the previous port but was quickly frustrated and went back to the ship. Read Less

We got off the ship and visited the gift shop in port. We were only in the city for a short amount of time. Read Less

Wonderful slice of Europe in Canada. We could live there. Read Less
