Ottawa: Two Day Winter Tour

Begin your tour at the site where Ottawa was born - Byward Market. See the extra wide streets specifically designed to allow horse-drawn carriages carrying goods to one of Canada's oldest and largest public markets. From there see Canada's National Gallery of Art, the Supreme Court of Canada and get a look at Parliament Hill.

Glide, twirl and spin your way around the scenic Rideau Canal during an evening of skating on the worlds largest skating rink. (Rentals not included)

Located on Parliament Hill, the Centre Block is one of the most important examples of Gothic Revival style anywhere in the world, characterized by stone carvings and imposing gargoyles. See the great House of Commons, the Senate, walk through the amazing arches of the Hall of Honour, and see the famous Peace Tower, which is immortalized on the Canadian $50 bill.

Open the doors to one of the most striking architectural masterpieces of our time. Start your journey in the Grand Hall, housing the largest collection of totem poles in the world, take a trip back through 1,000 years of Canadian history in Canada Hall, and come face to face with 27 fascinating people whose decisions and actions helped shape Canada into the nation it is today.

Originally the hub of Ottawa’s logging industry, the Byward Market area has many restaurants and cafes. The area hosts a daily market with crafts, fruits and vegetables, souvenirs, clothing and more.
