Reviews of ISLAND TIME TOURS (Travel Agency)

Elizabeth R

My husband and I went up to Victoria for a couple of days to relax and the wine tour was suggested. Colleen picked us up at our hotel and was very personable throughout the entire tour. She is a local, so her first hand knowledge of the area is great! The two wineries, cheese shop and cider maker were delightful and generous with their samples. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who's already been to Victoria and wants to see some more of the area.

Colleen the owner is wonderful she knows the island & the sites well, very personable and funny. I had a great relaxing day on the wine tour with an amazing lunch at a beautiful vineyard. I would highly recommend and trip with them. Can't wait to visit Vancouver island again! Thanks

Colleen is an absolute gem. We loved our day in the sun, e-biking on a charming tree-covered trail to the trestle bridge in Cowichan to have a delicious lunch followed by a wine tasting at the oldest winery on the island. Despite the temperature reaching 40 degrees, Colleen was an excellent host. She was both accommodating and pleasant and we will be coming back and telling all of our friends!

We had the most lovely time on the wine tour with Colleen! She was wonderful and sweet and interesting! The wineries were stunning, and fun to take pictures and enjoy the different wines. 10/10 recommend!

When searching for wine tours while visiting Victoria, don't overlook Island Time Tours. I had a wonderful experience using Island Time Tours for our Cowichan Wine Tour. We had the pleasure of having Don along for the ride that day. His extensive knowledge of the history, as well as the area were amazing. Melissa was our driver for the day and she was top notch! Made a fantastic experience all around for my girlfriend and myself. Pick-up from the hotel I specified was great, on time, water was provided, and she continuously made sure the cabin temperature in the van was at a good level for us. The day was clearly laid out what we were to expect, we were given a lunch menu with great choices to choose from at the one of the places we stopped at. Overall, this trip was a great value, the wineries were a great visit, and I would love to do it again my next visit to Victoria. You will not be disappointed with your experience with Island Time Tours for this wine tour. Thanks again Melissa, Don, and ITT for the great experience!!

So much better than hop on and off. Small van, friendly drivers, lots of chat and great info about the island, and its destinations. Will use again.

Great place to eat good service

This company never honored an Island Daily Deal voucher (2 of them) that I purchased and then the tour was cancelled because of low enrolment. After many many emails back and forth they still would not honor or refund the tickets.

Took the SaltSpring Island tour with guide Don Keith. Super! Don was a perfect guide. The van clean and comfortable. Ferry price was included as were Cheese, Brewery, Winery tastings - and so the tour price was well worth it - plus Don’s inside knowledge made it possible to do and see more than we would have known how on a one day trip. The cheese, beer, and wine were excellent, exceeding whet we expected - but still local and unique. No pressure to purchase, except the pressure of quality food. And...do not miss the petroglyph. It’s not often one sees a clan/family marker anymore and this is a chance to touch a bit of precontact history and a reminder of the true owners of SaltSpring Island and the Pacific Northwest. Back to our condo and in the pool by 5:30!

Glen was an awesome guide and took great care of us. He was really knowledgable about the area and clearly had good relationships with all of the wineries we stopped at. The provided lunch was delicious and fit our dietary restrictions. Overall we had a wonderful time!

We had a great time with Don on our wine tour. He pointed out lots of interesting things on our drive and gave us some history of the places we saw. They were great accommodating my food allergies too.

Colleen was a great tour guide! Very knowledgeable about the area wineries and wines they offer. Took us to some unique vineyards that differ from each other and the norm to give variety. Some very beautiful settings.

Mark Morris

Alena Hill

We could not have been luckier to have found Colleens tour. She is so friendly and incredibly knowledgeable of the area and foods and wines, we got to visit 3 wineries and the provided lunch is above and beyond what you might expect from something provided by any other tour. We especially felt space with current covid-19 procedures. You’re in great hands with Colleen! Can’t recommend her more highly!!
