Heart Pounding Adventures

WE MAY BE HISTORIC, BUT WE CAN GET YOUR HEART POUNDING
From whale-watching to zip-lining, adventures await in Victoria


VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, May, 2011 -- Aaah, Victoria. Sleepy little village, lost in the gentle mists of the west coast rainforest. Wrong! Victoria’s Historic Inns is offering a Heart-Pounding Adventures package that will thrill you with the wonders of nature. The seas around Victoria abound with whales, from killer to grey and humpback, and the luscious rainforests are rich with wildlife, and adventure.

The Heart-Pounding Adventures package includes a three-and-a-half hour whale watching tour with Eagle Wing Tours, who guarantee that you’ll see whales. It’s up to you to pick your next adventure: choose between a two-hour tree top zip-line tour with Adrena Line, or a two-hour guided kayak tour with Kelp Reef Adventures, along Victoria’s coastline and surrounding inlets.

In the evening, kick back and share a laugh over the day’s activities at one of Victoria’s great pubs: pick between English, Scottish and Irish for dining and nightly music. At the end of the evening, if you happen to have a lager or two too many, don’t worry about it - we’ll cover the taxi back to your inn.

Your package includes:

  • Two nights accommodation 
  • Two scrumptious breakfasts to keep you going for the day
  • Three-and-a-half hour whale watching expedition - guaranteed sightings May 15 to October 31
  • Pub dinner for two ($60 value)
  • Taxi home to your chosen Historic Inn
  • Two-hour guided zip-line tour or two-hour guided kayak tour

The Heart Pounding Adventures package is available from May 15 to October 31, 2011. Pricing starts at $335 CAD, accommodation included. An extra night or an extra person can be added. Please contact your Innkeeper for details and prices.
