Free tours a Ottawa

Our original tour guide (Andre) did not show up. We waited 30 minutes before we were notified that another guide (Phil) was on his way. Other than this unfortunate delay Phil did a wonderful job filling in.

I really enjoyed this tour with Eduard. He is a real local and it shows because he knows everything about the city. He designed the tour by himself and included a lot of insights and curiosities. This makes the tour unique and a must experience while visiting Ottawa!

Eliakim was adorable ! He took us to many beautiful places in the nature and was very passionned. It allowed us to see an other side of Ottawa we wouldn't have seen without this tour ! We highly recommand this tour with him !!!

The tour was great! Thanks to Eduard for taking the time and answering every question so professionally. Definitely recommend, he knows so much about the city and the country and is a great history-teller :)

Our small female Guide Kristin or Kirsten ( sorry If the name is wrong ) was very good. Good voice, slow enough speaking, she had the big group of more than 20 in control. At her 7 to 8 important stops, she gave detailed information. To history, signifikant people, buildings and trivial.

Nice tour

We had such a great time on Craige’s walking tour! He’s incredibly knowledgeable about Ottawa’s history and has a real talent for bringing the city’s past to life with engaging stories. The tour was well-paced, easy to follow, and covered all the main highlights without ever feeling rushed. Craige also added fun details and little-known facts that made the experience feel special and different from just reading about the landmarks online.

I would highly recommend this tour. The knowledge of the history of Ottawa was outstanding.

Eduardo, super staložen i smiren, što je rijetko u ovom ubrzanom i ludom svijetu. Bio je puno informacija kako povijesnih tako i iz današnjeg vremena. Odveo nas je na mjesta koja sami ne bi obišli i predložio jos dosta lokacija koje mozemo vidjeti. Bilo je jako edukativno i zanimljivo.

Eine sehr interessante und anregende Tour. Craig kennt seine Stadt wirklich sehr gut. Absolut empfehlenswert!

I thought Annette was very informative and easy to interact with and went at a comfortable pace, really enjoyed it

Annette is a very guru! Tour suggests!

Annette was friendly, informative and took us on a great all round of Ottawa. We would definitely recommend her. She also took the time to email us later, regarding a famous person we saw on route .

Craig is a very knowledgeable and awesome tour guide

Giro molto interessante, tante informazioni e consigli su cosa fare nel resto della giornata. Si vede proprio la passione nel fare questo lavoro e nella città. Consigliata!

We really enjoyed the tour! It was a small group and we were with our baby in a stroller, and our guide was so kind, always making sure we were comfortable and even adjusting the route to avoid stairs. Even though English is not our first language, she explained everything in a clear and easy way, so we could follow along perfectly. Very happy with the experience!

Interesting tour of old Ottawa

I can’t believe his knowledge level. He was fantastic

Wonderful small tour around park with a lot of nature and animals. He is a wonderful man with great personality and love what he is doing! Thanks a lot for this experience in Ottawa.

Philip was so friendly and knowledgeable. He shared interesting and informative facts about Ottawa sights that you might otherwise miss. Before leaving each stop, he made sure to ask if we had any questions. Highly recommend this tour with Philip!

Really great tour of not only Ottawa's highlight, but some hidden gems and insights into getting to know the city. Highly recommended.

Phillip was very professional and the tourh was very informative.

The tour with Ed was interesting and highly informative. He customised the tour to our needs and preferences and had maps and other items to illustrate what he was saying. A very open-hearted and friendly guide. I would book a tour with him again !

He was so so knowledgeable! Eduard not only took us through the interesting parts of the capital but he also carried with him a lot of books and other objects to give us an insight into the history of the city. His style of storytelling was very visual and intriguing. He was also very accommodating of our schedule and was in touch with me throughout. I would absolutely recommend his tour as he is extremely passionate about the subject and takes time out to make it personal. It doesn’t feel like a commercial tour at all, rather it feels like walking with a friend who’s taking you through his city. I’d give it a 10/10!

Our guide Kirsten was AMAZING!!! I’ve done another tour in Ottawa (as well as elsewhere) and she was the best. She was loud and clear and funny and knowledgeable. I am Canadian and she made me proud. Well done. Thank you
