The Best Day - If you are looking for a day trip from Montreal, Sorinel is the best guide! He went out of his way to show us the sights in Ottawa and accommodate each of our requests!!

Great way to explore Canada's capital city. - An amazing way to explore Ottawa if you don't plan to stay overnight. My guide, Sorinel, was very accommodating and provided insightful commentary about the city.
We saw the major landmarks as well as explored the inside of the Senate building. We were even treated to a lecture about Canadian government as well as judicial processes in Canada.
My guide then allowed me to explore the area for around 2 hours freely, which was plenty. Overall an exceptional tour. 10 out of 10.

A nice one day visit to Parliament Hill, Ottawa - This was a special tour that only included my wife and I. I felt that our guide had a very good plan for how we should spend our day. Granted it was a several hour drive from Montréal to Ottawa, but it was very pleasant.
Once in the city, we saw a quite a bit in the central Parliament Hill area. I felt I saw what it I wanted to see in the city for a one day visit. It even included a visit into the house of parliament chambers, which was very special.

Beautiful City - Chris was an excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about Ottawa and made the tour interesting and fun. Our tour occurred during the tulip festival. Tulips were everywhere and were spectacular! We highly recommend this tour.

Ottawa - a gem not to be missed !! - Everything worked very well from beginning to end. Picked up on time at the hotel and arrived in Ottawa just over two hours later. It didn’t stop raining all day but even so Ottawa is still a must when visiting Ontario / Quebec. The guide had organized tickets for the tour of the Senate which we hadn’t expected and was extremely interesting. It was definitely worth paying the extra to have a private tour. Would certainly recommend !!

I felt for the price we did not see much Our guide was great but the tour itself had little substance - The sights we saw would be very easy to see in your own
I felt for the price there was very little substance
Our guide was great but there were no entries open to parliament which I think should be warned up front

Tour not completed - Driver was on time for the pick up, polite and respectful.
Bottle of water offered.
Was a good guide, knows the places.
But the Senate can’t be visited, and I knew it because I’ve asked…
Only House of Commons and Byward Market were visited.
I’m not satisfied of that because I’ve paid for a tour of 3 different places not for 2.
Should be cheaper then and ask for a partial refund.
