Good way to see the sights. Our guide was very nice but shared very little about the significance of the sights and monuments. The tour was long at 2 hours and included a 1 hour boat trip making it 3 and 1/2hours total. The boat trip was not mentioned in the description of the walk.

Was long, but a great way to see the city and our guide, Elie, was very nice and knowledgeable. The boat tour, which we did not realize was part of the tour, was a nice surprise that gave us a better idea of the more residential part of Ottawa. The tour was long, and you need to be able to walk without any limitations.
