Our driver Ursula was an absolute delight. The carriage ride through town was wonderful. I so enjoyed the sound of the horses hooves clapping through the neighborhood. We got to feed our horse and do a little photo shoot at the end of the ride. This is a do not miss activity when visiting Victoria.

Ursula and Fusion were the best team! We had so much fun learning about Victoria, seeing all the sights and taking a stroll along the ocean. It was the perfect way to end our trip and celebrate our engagement! Highly recommend!

We went on a 30 min tour ride. Our guide Kassidy was fantastic, she was very informative and very kind. She told us a lot about Victoria’s history. We would definitely come back if we can. Also shout out to our lovely horse Frankie he was amazing as well. If you’re looking for a good horse tour Kassidy and Frankie is the way to go!
In December, join the Holiday Caroling Tour for a festive 30-45 minute sleigh ride under twinkling lights. In rainy months, use the free ponchos and convertible roof.
