Ever wondered what lies beyond the Staff Only doors at your favourite museums? Now is your chance to take a peek! Join us at the Maritime Museum of BC for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look.

This intimate, small-group tour takes you into the museum’s collections facility – home to 35,000 artefacts, 554 linear feet of archives, 15,000 photographs, and 8,500 reference books connected to BC’s maritime history. Most of these are rarely seen in our public galleries.

Groups are kept small to allow for real conversation and close-up viewing.

Destination Greater Victoria is honoured to be based on the traditional territory of the Lekwungen-speaking peoples of the Songhees Nation and Xwsepsum Nation, whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.
