Express shuttle offers much more than a drive to the Gardens!

Published on Oct, 2024

Today I visited the Butchart Gardens which were spectacular! One of the highlights was the Express Shuttle with Aaron the exceptional driver, he meets everyone with a kind welcoming smile and his commentary, knowledge of the city & history was awesome, he had us entertained the whole way there and back. Thanks Aaron for adding to a wonderful day!

Great experience
