Adventure Details
Hop aboard one of our iconic pickle boats, all lit up with twinkling lights and filled with cheerful holiday music. You will cruise through the heart of Victoria Inner Harbour, soaking in the Christmas lights from the water. A holiday tradition for some, a brand-new adventure for others but a cherished experience for everyone.
After the cruise, we will stop by Fisherman’s Wharf, where our partners at Puerto Vallarta Amigos will be waiting with warm hot chocolate or coffee and delicious churros.
It’s the perfect way to cozy up and enjoy the festive vibes before heading back to the Empress dock.
NEW THIS YEAR: Extend the fun and hop aboard our Christmas Trolley Bus! Spend extra time at Fisherman’s Wharf, when riding back in holiday style through the Christmas lights of charming James Bay. Select your ride back at checkout to join the Christmas Trolley.
