Ottawa Premium City Tour with Parliament Hill & Canal Cruise
Overview

Travel through the elegant Rockcliffe Park neighbourhood before stopping at Rideau Hall, the official residence of Canada’s Governor General, followed by a drive-by the home of the Prime Minister. Continue to Parliament Hill for a photo stop at the Centennial Flame, the symbolic heart of Canadian democracy, before passing the Supreme Court of Canada and other key landmarks along Wellington Street.
Next, view the stunning Notre-Dame Basilica and Royal Canadian Mint while your guide shares stories of their historical and cultural significance.
