Had a wonderful few days away in Victoria BC. Such a beautiful city. We walked on the ferry and have been walking around to see everything. In 2 days we have walked about 14 miles...hoping that outweighs all the wonderful food we’ve been eating.

[@noahcharlesz]

We took the ferry to Victoria. We saw the Legislative House, Fisherman’s Wharf, China Town and lots of totem poles. All in all we clocked in just under 10 miles, 4 beers, one meal and a water taxi!!! 🤣

[@asmrcomfortingsenses5431]

Thank you so much for this video! You did an excellent job and certainly covered all of the most prominent areas of interest….

Thank you po sa videos. I have a lot of idea now. But about the ferry how much po per person inluding the car po? Thank you.

[@StepHenzVlogs]

Hello, thank you for watching our video. You may check the website of BC Ferries regarding the fee. If I remembered it right, it was less than $100 for us with 4 passengers and a car. Enjoy your trip!

[@user-gf8qq1cx4b]

i​ am​ plan​ing​ to​ canada​ this​ Aug​ and​ your​ vdo​ is​ really​ help​ful.​ thank​s​ so​ much.​ I​ have​ question​s​ about​ Ferry​ to​ Victoria, I​ already​ bought​ a​ ticket​ with​ car​ at​ 9.00 but​ I​ dont​ know​ how​ to​ process​ the​ Check-in​ and​ go​ to​ the​ right​ Ferry same​ as​ your​ vdo.​ Pls​ share​ which​ info​ I​ can​ study the​ process​ of​ check​ in​ till​ boarding​ on​ the​ Ferry.​ Also​ how​ to​ find​ the​ parking in​ Victoria? Thank​ you​

[@StepHenzVlogs]

Glad to know that our video helped in your travel plan. You may check this article for some guidelines in preparation to your ferry ride: www.bcferries.com/travel-boarding/travel-tips It’s important to give yourself extra time to get to the terminal as the road going there gets busy especially that it’s summer. Lots of street parking in Victoria. Enjoy and all the best! 🙌🏻

[@user-gf8qq1cx4b]

thank​ you​ so​ much​ for​ your​ help

[@jcarlos9079]

what month did you visit?

[@katebreganio8481]

Hello where hotel did you stay in Vancouver? And about the ferry how much the fare together with the car. Thanks

[@StepHenzVlogs]

We stayed at an inn, we’re going again this year and book ourselves an airbnb. The ferry fares for travel from Vancouver to Vancouver Island vary depending on several factors such as the departure point, destination, type of vehicle, and passenger count. Visit www.bcferries.com to find detailed info on fares.

[@sunirmalbiswas5689]

Very nice video, lots Thanks.

[@hamnakhalid3380]

Please tell the name of song in the video

[@ilmarahman6047]

It would be informative if you could mention which places are free and which are ticketed and share the cost!

[@LyricoTV]

It would be great if you do your own research for those! The video is great and already informative!!!

[@love24give]

Can 3yr old be allowed in the flyover canada

[@neilknowsa3172]

Children must be 40″ tall in order to ride. My 3 yo did not make it to that limit that time.

[@love24give]

@@neilknowsa3172 thank you sooooo much for your response. Now I have to find a tape to measure my son

[@suzannetartoosie2570]

would have been way more helpful if you had mentioned costs/entries, etc

[@lindaandrews4183]

bring lots of $$$

[@pubghileleriandpubgtricks2053]

This is not an American accent. But it's also not the accent in other non-native English-speaking countries. So which country's accent is this? Also, the weird thing is that understanding this accent is child's play.

[@StepHenzVlogs]

Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and leave a comment! I appreciate your feedback about my accent, and while it may be different from what you're used to, I’m glad that you were still able to understand and enjoy the content. I’ve lived in the Philippines most of my life but now situated in Canada.

[@user-jz6bj3ge9g]

What?+

[@arhamahmadi852]

I'm so sorry for Canada. Most things about a good Canada are not true, Including clean cities - beaches, and forests. It's a big lie. The first time I arrived in Vancouver in 2018, I was shocked. As soon as I left the airport door, I saw tissue, disposable glasses, and other garbage left in the city. The further I went, the more I saw them. Before I moved to Canada, I lived in Georgia, Armenia, Turkey, Serbia, The United States, and for a short time in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Netherlands, Germany, and England, but I have never seen the amount of garbage that people leave in different Canadian cities. Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, and Quebec are no less than Vancouver. Canadian and Canada Governments don't care about this tragedy. I think everything that says about Canada as a clean and powerful culture is not true. You don't need to travel to Canada to see this. Just watch some videos about walking in downtown Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, and Quebec. You will find the truth. Impossible for you to walk in a Canadian city and you don't see the dark side of that. Everywhere you will see garbage. You will never see this in Europe, Australia, the United States, Japan, and Korea. This amount of waste is not even seen in Malaysian, Indonesian, or Thailand cities. It is impossible for you to use public transport and not see a lot of garbage at stations or on the route. You will be surprised to find a lot of garbage even in the woods - by the rivers and on the beaches in Canada. I wish the Canadians woke up and had no enmity with their country. To be fair, I randomly looked at videos from downtown Manchester and Concord in New Hampshire - Philadelphia - Detroit - Chicago - New York - Baltimore - Denver - Nashville, and Knoxville in the United States, and Toronto - Quebec - Montreal - Winnipeg - Calgary - Vancouver - Victoria - Ottawa and Thunder Bay in Canada. we should be fair. The bitter truth must be accepted. Without any exaggeration. Completely impartial. I have to say that I didn't see a single piece of garbage in any of the US videos to convince myself. Without exaggeration, in all Canadian cities, there must have been a piece of garbage on the ground less than every hundred meters. It must have an important reason. I do not know. But this is a bitter truth. You can try. This country should be brought closer to its exaggerated claim. the truth is bitter. Certainly, some Asian countries such as Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and even Malaysia are much cleaner compared to Canada. Of course, we should not forget that Canada claims to be one of the 10 cleanest countries in the world. And Vancouver claims to be one of the 5 cleanest cities in the world. Please go to East Hastings or Victoria Drive or Commercial Drive or West Georgia or Broadway or Main Street and judge for yourself. I am 50 years old and have traveled to 26 countries. Canada is far from its claims. I saw, homeless people, pooping and peeing everywhere and it's so common. nobody cares. I was shocked again. I endured for 3 years but every day going worst. late in 2022, I decided to move to the east because I thought that place has a stronger culture. I chose Montreal. I had heard it is the capital of art and civilization in Canada. it was absolutely wrong. Canada is Canada. I was shocked again, again, and again. the wave of homelessness, graffiti, vandalism, bad smell, terrible infrastructure especially roads in or out of the city, and above all, you can see trash everywhere. plastic bags, tissues, water bottles, and disposable cups. You cannot see any street or park or public place without these. This is impossible. surprisingly nobody cares. neither the people nor the government!!!!!!! please, don't be fooled by the advertisement about a good Canada. please, be careful. most of the things about a good Canada are deception This country is disappointing. Please, Please, Please, don't immigrate to Canada you would regret it absolutely. this is not a developed country, Canada is a developing country with huge serious problems

[@lindaandrews4183]

May 11/23 lots of homeless, junkies. I live here and I watch my back during the day. I certainly would not walk at night. Everything is sooooo expensive!!!!!!
