I have been staying near Victoria Island for the past week and found that using a trusted private car service is much safer than hailing cabs on the street. Stick to well-lit areas after dark and keep your phone tucked away when moving through the heavy traffic on the Third Mainland Bridge.

That is such solid advice, especially about keeping your phone out of sight during bridge traffic. Did you find any good local spots in Victoria Island that are easy to walk to safely during the day?
