We will also stop at the Rockcliffe lookout point where you can take some amazing pictures while looking out on the Ottawa River.

Next, you will enjoy a narrated drive passing iconic attractions such as the Parliament Buildings and make stops outside the Supreme Court and Canadian Museum of History to capture beautiful images of the scenery. To complete your tour your guide will take you to Parliament Hill - home of the Parliament of Canada. Here you will get the opportunity to learn about the rich nation's history and admire the beautiful Gothic revival-style buildings and their architectural elements of national symbolic importance. At the end of your tour, your guide will take you back to your Downtown Ottawa hotel.
