1-Day Ottawa Sightseeing Tour from Montreal | Explore Canada’s Capital in One Day
5.0
1 reviews
Ottawa tour was quite nice! The bus driver drove safely and quickly. The museums are not really worth going, but you can consider walking around the area when the rest go to the museum. Parliament hill definitely worth going. It would have been better if the tour guide was more informative and shared a little about the history of Ottawa & Canada.
