Your experience begins as you meet your friendly local guide at 1 Elgin St in downtown Ottawa, just steps from the city’s most iconic landmarks. From here, you’ll set off on a guided walking tour through the heart of Canada’s capital. Make your way toward the vibrant ByWard Market, one of the country’s oldest and most lively public markets. Along the route, you’ll pass the impressive Royal Canadian Mint and the stunning Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica, offering a perfect blend of history, architecture, and culture. Continue on toward the Centennial Flame, walking past the elegant Fairmont Château Laurier along the way. This iconic flame-shaped fountain, commemorating Canada’s Confederation, is a meaningful highlight of your journey. Your tour concludes at the renowned National Gallery of Canada, where you’ll be greeted by the striking Maman sculpture—an unforgettable and artistic finale to your Ottawa experience.

Either as an addition to the free Discover the Capital Historical Highlights tour, or simply on its own, step back in time and experience the grit and glory of the ByWard Market: Ottawa’s oldest neighbourhood! Explore the rough-and-tumble days of Bytown — where Irish canal workers clashed in the Shiners’ War, French Canadian families fiercely protected their language and traditions, and lumberjacks boozed and brawled at the legendary Château Lafayette. From bustling Market Square to the powerful symbolism of the National Peacekeeping Memorial, this lively 2 hour tour uncovers the people, struggles, and incredible stories that shaped Canada’s capital. Join us and experience the Market like never before.
