Three senior couples looking for advice on a pre-cruise tour from Seattle to Victoria to Vancouver. Has anyone had experience with Grayline or Clipper Vacations? After cruise we plan to return to Seattle for 2 days of sightseeing. Thanks in advance for any input.

Ssurprised you've not rec'd any info here yet. But have you also posted on the Canada board for the Victoria/Vancouver part of your question?

Is your cruise to and from Seattle, or to and from Vancouver?

Thanks for the 2 responses. Yes, I did post on the Canada board this morning. Our cruise is round trip Vancouver.

You can find a gazillion suggestions for similar itineraries on the Alaska board at Cruisecritic. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=55

I understand your itinerary is Seattle, Victoria, Vancouver, Alaska, Vancouver, Seattle.

If so (and if you are not renting a car), the logical itinerary would be to take the Clipper to Victoria and then public transport from Victoria to Vancouver. You could book a Victoria City and Garden tour in Victoria or as part of yoour Clipper trip.

There was a very similar thread recently titled Seattle-Vancouver-Victoria that had LOTS of info. Try searching on that and you should get some good ideas.
