Local knowledge for Victoria
Where to stay
Budget travelers tend to cluster in the Downtown core, around the stretch of Douglas Street between Johnson and Yates, where hostels put the Inner Harbour, Chinatown on Fisgard Street, and the main transit exchange on Douglas all within easy walking distance.
Getting around
- A BC Transit day pass costs only a little more than a single fare and covers buses across the region, including the route to Swartz Bay if you need to catch a BC Ferries sailing to the mainland.
- Fisgard Street in Chinatown has some of the most affordable sit-down meals in the downtown core. Lunch specials at the older dim sum spots regularly come in well under the cost of a sit-down dinner.
- Beacon Hill Park and the Galloping Goose Trail are both free ways to fill a full day. The trail picks up near the Johnson Street Bridge and runs west for miles, so a cheap bike rental goes further here than paying for any organized tour.
When to go
Hostels are cheapest from November through March. July and August bring the highest demand, and beds in the Downtown core can sell out weeks in advance.
