We really enjoyed the hop on hop off bus tour - so much that we did the whole tour twice! The guides were informative and entertaining. The boat cruise on the Ottawa River was very relaxing - the guide here was a bit hard to understand as she talked very quickly. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone.

Ottawa is a truly beautiful city. We would not have seen as much as we did without the bus trip. The boat was lovley and we were able to see the sunset. The best part was that on the boat as well as the bus tours ,the narrators were extremely knowledgeable, well spoken and entertaining. I would recomend both

The Cruise was great - reallyenjoyed the tour guide and felt that I saw a great deal of the Ottawa Highlights however, the bus was not as enjoyable. The Tour Guide spoke to quickly and there wasn't enough to see - should visit other districts of Ottawa such as the Glebe, China Town etc.

Enjoyed both the bus trip and the Ottawa river trip very much. Well worth the money and a great way to see the beautiful city of Ottawa. Added bonus of getting picked up from our hotel in the morning. Thank you.

GREAT FOR ANY ONE AND EVERYONE TO DO AT LEAST ONCE... I had lived in Ottawa for 7 years but my fiance didn't know the city... We decided to take the tour to move around the city, but it surprised us on how informative and good the guide was, as well as the opportunity we had to go to different places around the city that normally we would've not gone... =)

Excellent. We only had one day to do the hop on/hop off tour, which isn't enough. You need at least 2 days.

The tour enables you to get to around 10 attractions in the city centre and outskirts.

Our guide was Gilles - he was enthusiastic and informative. thank you Gilles.

The tour and cruise were an excellent overview of Ottawa. The guides described all the sights and provided a historical perspective. Hop-on Hop-off is a very convenient way to see everything.

Great way to spend a few hours. The Ottawa River tour is the one to take as you see a lot of the canal from the bus tour anyway.

A lot of stairs up and down to the water but the Captain called a taxi to pick us up at the dock in Hull as I have emphysema. Four star service I'd say. Take the longer river tour as the boat is nicer than the other company's.

1 star rating: I do not recommend this Review by Greg P, August 2011
Doing what: Ottawa City Hop-on Hop-off Tour and Cruise

when we checked in the person working there forgot to give us a receipt to get on the boat cruise. The microphone did not work on the bus and we didn't know anything of what we were seeeing. We were told the wrong time the boat was suppose to leave and we rushed to get there and it didn't leave for another half an hour.
