Explore the Best of Ottawa with our Guided Tours
Hey there, fellow adventure seekers! Are you ready to explore the vibrant heart of Canada? Look no further than Ottawa, our nation's capital and a treasure trove of history, culture, and natural beauty. At Foxiepass, we're all about showing you the best this city has to offer, and trust me, there's a lot to see!
Parliament Hill: Where History Comes Alive
First stop on our tour? The iconic Parliament Hill, of course! Picture this: you're standing in front of those gorgeous Gothic Revival buildings, feeling like you've stepped back in time. Our guide, Sarah, loves to share quirky facts about the place. Did you know there's a cat sanctuary right behind the Parliament? Talk about Canadian hospitality extending to our feline friends!
ByWard Market: A Feast for Your Senses
Now, let's talk food. ByWard Market isn't just a market; it's a way of life here in Ottawa. On our tour, we'll weave through the bustling stalls, and I bet you'll fall in love with the mouthwatering aromas. Pro tip: try the BeaverTails. They're not actual beaver tails (thank goodness), but a delicious pastry that'll make your taste buds dance!
Rideau Canal: From Skates to Boats
Ah, the Rideau Canal. In winter, it's the world's largest skating rink. But come summer, it's all about leisurely boat rides. Our guide, Mike, always jokes that he's been skating and boating here so long, he's practically grown fins. Don't worry, though – no fins required for our tours!
Canadian Museum of History: Time Travel, Anyone?
Just a hop across the river to Gatineau, and you're at the Canadian Museum of History. It's not just any museum – it's a journey through time. The Grand Hall is so impressive, it'll make your jaw drop. And let's be honest, where else can you see a full-sized Indigenous longhouse indoors?
Gatineau Park: Nature's Playground
For all you nature lovers out there, Gatineau Park is a must-visit. It's like Mother Nature decided to show off all her best features in one place. In fall, the colors are so vibrant, you'll think you've stepped into a painting. Our guide, Emma, swears she once saw a moose here. We're still waiting for photographic evidence, though!
