オタワプレミアムナイトドライブツアー（リバークルーズ付き）

As I recover from an injury, this seemed the best alternative to a walking tour. It was awesome! Our small group allowed for an interactive and enriching experience. The cruise was on a smaller, electric boat, which improved the overall experience. The highlight was definitely our guide Raissa. She was knowledgeable, engaging and incredibly sweet.

The first part of the tour which was the driving part was excellent. Our guide and guide-in- training were very friendly and gave us a personalized experience with lots of interesting information. The francophones kindly spoke English the entire time. The second part which was the Ottawa River boat ride was not as good because the guide had to speak non-stop very quickly to convey the information in both English and French which gave me a headache after a while. So 5 stars to the driving tour and 3 stars to the boat tour, for an average of 4.

The canal cruise was nice and the tour guide Lily was really good. The driving part was poor. It was dark so points of interest were not visible. We expected to see beautiful lights but this was not the case. That part of the trip should have been in daylight before the boat trip.

Beautiful sunset view. many interesting info given by the Guide with humor and clarity in both French and English, Benoit was perfect! For the city tour, Angela was also great, very clear in her remarks and very friendly.

Tour was the same sights as on the boat. No light show. Asked the guide to take us back to the hotel. Other family bailed out just before us. Waste of time and money

Not as advertised. I have taken many tours thru Viator but this one was not worth 200 plus dollars!! A bit of a scam. First of all Gabe the tour guide was fine a very nice guy, but he didn't know the schedule we paid for. I could have bought that boat tour for half the price. I paid for walking tour and drive tour. No walking tour. Please refund 50 dollars and provide me with a voucher for a future trip.

This going to be a long post. I will start by saying there was miscommunication on both sides. I accidentally put the wrong address for the pick up. I’m new to the country. I didn’t know they had more than one holiday inn in Ottawa . I booked the night before. They never called, emailed, or text me to let me know what time they will pick me up. They called me 30min before the boat leaves. When asked why not let me know what time you guys would pick me up the drive said he get his order last at 6:15pm. And if he picked me up at the right address I would not make it to the boat in time because it’s a 13min walk so he suggested to take the 7:30pm boat but it’s small then the one we picked. When asked why would I go for a small one when I payed for a bigger and more money he had no answer for me. We had a heated discussion. He give me customer service to call. I had to explain the story all over again. I was getting frustrated at this point. I asked why we didn’t get a pick up time. He said we put in 7hrs ago and the was a short notice for them to give us a pick up time. To me that is so unprofessional. You’re running a business no matter what time I book it you be able to handle last minute situation. He pointed me through to his boss. His boss explained to us the small boat is an upgrade more intimate and more pricey but wouldn’t charges the difference and asked us if we wanted that. The drive didn’t explained it that way. If he did we would have said yes and thanked him. We told the manager yes we take it. He told he will talk to the driver and get back to us. He get to us and said the driver refused to drive us and feels uncomfortable driving us. He said he would give us a refund but with subtract $50 cancellation fee. But when we argue, we’re not canceling you’re . He said we call you tomorrow to discuss it. Do you think he called? Nope!!

The river cruise and the light show on Parliament Hill. The tour guide on the cruise did an excellent job of pointing out interesting places along the river and giving some history about the area. Andrew our van driver offered lots of facts about the city/area. Very careful driver.

We had a wonderful evening on the river and watching the light show on Parliment hill. Our tour guide Tyler was the BEST! He had camp chairs for all of us at the light show and he was a fountain of information about the city, the canal system and the history. The narrator on the boat was great too. The tour is mostly by van and boat but there is a 10 min walk to the boat landing. Our guide was very accommodating, as were the other people in our group, as we had to make a few stops so my husband could sit and rest on the way to the boat. We were so glad we took this tour!

I did not originally plan to tour around Ottawa for I was here to attend on something in the morning. Thus, this night tour perfectly fitted my tight schedule; I really think it was a very good decision. I did not have a vehicle to begin with and this tour included being picked up and dropped off on my accommodation. So I honestly felt safe compared to walking around alone at night. It was a small group, so I instantly met new friends. Moreover, our tour guide, Katherine, did a great job in showing us around the city and discussing the significance of each spot. This helped me decide better on which places I would've really wanted to visit on my next/last day in the city. She also gave us a quick drive to Quebec and showed us a spot to see the beauty of Ottawa City at night. Moreover, I appreciated and comfortably enjoyed watching the Parliament light show since Katherine brought us foldable chairs and placed them in a very good spot; it was an educational moment for me. The tour also included a boat ride which made this booking more worthy. Eladie ensured it was fun and that we would appreciate and understand the establishments and places that can be seen around the river tour. She's very knowledgeable with a good sense of humor. I must say, it was the perfect way to get a picture of the famous Rideau Falls. Overall, for someone who did not have enough time to plan a clear itinerary for an Ottawa trip, this booking saved me from a lot of hassle and eventually made me appreciate and enjoy the city of Ottawa.
