The weather was perfect 👌 👍 🥰. Windy, cooler Temps. First time visiting Ottawa, beautiful scenery all around. The only complaint I have is not taking the time to take pictures of the locations, the bus driver was driving way too fast!!!! That's not good customer service for tourists. The guide was awesome, very detailed.

Hop on-off or stay-on bus ride. We chose to stay on the upper deck for the full route. The drive and tour guide were good! We would prefer less talk about pubs and parting and more information about the city.
