Holiday magic at Craigdarroch Castle is back!

Step inside the castle from December 3rd to January 7th, and you’ll be transported back in time to a Victoria Christmas, where the magic of the era and holiday season come to life. 

Through self-guided tours, and now, a new guided tour, visitors will get a unique glimpse into the toys and traditions of this time period.

Starting December 13th, the new ‘Holiday Tour of Craigdarroch Castle’ will guide visitors through the castle’s luxurious vintage rooms, highlighting 19th-century traditions and stories.

The tour is one hour long, starting at 4:30 p.m. on select dates throughout December.

After the tour, at 6 p.m., guests are invited for an exclusive after-hours examination of the castle.

During this time, visitors can take holiday photos and explore the castle on their own—a rare chance to experience its whimsical atmosphere, free from the usual hustle and bustle!

Another thing to look forward to at the castle this holidays are the Victoria Conservatory of Music piano students who will be playing classic Christmas music to enjoy throughout the season.

Craigdarroch Castle is open for self-guided tours Wednesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For the full schedule and ticket information, visit their website
