We had a tour of Ottawa and it was absolutely wonderful. Because we already saw most of Ottawa, our tour guide took us to areas we had not seen. He also personalized the trip based on our heritage. The cruise on the Rideau was wonderful as well. Thank you for helping to make our trip a success.

It was a general overview of Ottawa that gave us ideas of where everything was so we could drill down into what we want to do going forward. River cruise was nice and relaxing. Denny, our driver was a nice guy to talk to.

Denny was quite courteous and informative. He had a quick wit and was fun to spend the time with. Our timing was impacted by some temporary road closures, which limited our access to certain sites. Luckily, Denny was able to adjust accordingly.

Denis is an excellent guide. We had a shared tour with two other people. He picked each group up at our hotels. We, the other vistors, and Denis had good conversations about what we were seeing and, our experiences elsewhere. He's knowledgeable about the area, and we felt like we had a very thorough tour of the city. We enjoyed the Rideau canal cruise as well. We'd highly recommend Denis.

We were a group of 6 (3couples) Dani our tour guide did a good job in bringing us around the main tourist sites, river cruise was relaxing and saw more of Ottawa, we ended in By Ward Market and drove us around showing which resto serves good food.

Not a river cruise. Otherwise it was fine. Denis was very accommodating and tailored the tour to our interests.

Great overview of Ottawa. Mostly drive by sightseeing with a few brief stops for a photo op of scenic views. Would have been nice to walk inside a couple government buildings to at least see the lobby or entry areas.
