they only visit Victoria the same way they visit anchorage etc.

the ships are based out of and depart from Vancouver - what do they call that home port? port of call is just a port where they visit?

Vancouver may get "less visitors" but the ships are based here and all the passengers have to come here to get to the ship and have to spend time here on their trip so they could be counted as visitors

people don't board the ships in Victoria - they would have boarded the ship in Seattle
