What To Expect
Rideau Hall
Rideau Hall - The official home of the Governor General of Canada. In 1977, Rideau Hall and the surrounding sites were also part of Canada’s national historic heritage.
Rideau Canal National Historic Site
The canal was opened in 1832 as a precaution in case of war with the United States. It remains in use today primarily for pleasure boating, with most of its original structures intact, operated by Parks Canada. The locks on the system open for navigation in mid-May and close in mid-October. It is the oldest continuously operated canal system in North America, and in 2007 it was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

5.00The guide gave helpful suggestions and then let us explore the tourist sites on our own. I liked this approach because it gave us the freedom to choose what we wanted to do and see. Overall, it was a good experience.
