5.00It’s a quick tour of some key places in Ottawa. And I quite liked it. You can pause anytime, explore more of a specific area, then move on. Loaded with info and tips about the city. It was very nice self-guided tour.
See Ottawa’s highlights at your pace and time!

4.00The app covered the main places in the city. The speech was clear and easy to follow. The app took a little bit of getting used to, but then it worked well. Interesting to find out about the Parliament buildings though was a little thin on details. Good to hear about some of the the less well-known places, for example, the market area and the totem pole.
