Explore Ottawa Small Group Tour Boat Cruise

Take this tour to see everything the capital has to offer, including Parliament Hill, and end your five- to six-hour tour with a Rideau Canal River Cruise.
Your sightseeing tour of Ottawa begins with a pickup from your hotel and a narrated drive past several must-see attractions! Passing the Parliament Buildings, you'll pause for picture-taking opportunities outside the Supreme Court and Canadian Museum of History.
You will be given a driving tour of Rockcliffe Park. Since large tour buses aren't permitted in this area, we'll be travelling in a passenger van, giving you the chance to view some places that most tourists won't be able to, like the Prime Minister's Residence, the Governor General's Residence, and the official residence of the US Ambassador to Canada. We'll also make a stop to the Rockcliffe Lookout, where you can get some beautiful shots of the Ottawa River.
You will visit Ottawa's Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica following your tour of Rockcliffe Park. The largest and oldest standing church in Ottawa will astound you with its magnificent gothic decor.
After that, you'll take a narrated drive by famous sights like the Parliament Buildings and stop outside the Supreme Court and Canadian Museum of History to take stunning photos of the surrounding area.
Your tour will end at Parliament Hill, which is where the Canadian Parliament is located. On a self-guided walking tour of the grounds, you will get the chance to learn about the rich history of the country and to enjoy the stunning Gothic revival-style buildings and their architectural features that are significant to the country.
On this tranquil river trip, which departs from Jacques Cartier Park's piers, you will slowly float along the Ottawa River. The Chateau Laurier Hotel, Rideau Falls, the Parliament Buildings, the Supreme Court of Canada, and the Prime Minister's House are just a few of the over 55 attractions you will be able to see while taking a relaxing river tour. (There are limited seasonal cruise options. In the winter, a trip to the Canadian Museum of History will take the place of the river cruise. *Please note that this tour does not include lunch; however, on the boat, there are snacks available for purchase.
