Full Day Tour to Victoria Friday, Feb 17, 2006 Board the bus at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in the morning for a full day (12 hour) narrated tour to beautiful Victoria BC. Travel on the BC Ferries through the Gulf Islands and then drive through Victoria and see the Royal Victoria Yacht Club, Beacon Hill Park, the Parliament Buildings and Victoria's Inner Harbour. You will have free time for lunch (no host), shopping and to tour the Royal British Columbia Museum (admission included in tour price). Before boarding the ferry back to Vancouver you will visit the Butchart Gardens, known for their 55 acres of wonderful flora displays. Price per person $123.00 CAN. Afternoon Tour of Vancouver Area West Coast History and Aquatic Life Occasionally we get questions regarding accommodations; the most common one is "why only two hotels?" The answer is relatively simple but worth repeating. In the course of negotiating facilities we endeavour to get the best deal we can for you as regards accommodation and registration costs. When we, through your reservations, achieve a preset number of rooms we get a very, very good rate for the convention and meeting room facilities. Therefore, when booking your stay in Vancouver please remember to ask for the Society for Range Management rate and thereby ensure your room is tallied to our block. You get a good room rate and we all benefit via reduced meeting costs. Please note the occupancy levels and the rates which apply at each hotel. Your continued support is appreciated!
