Please kindly recheck the pickup details, meeting point, and session time stated on the voucher for your selected package.

Discover Ottawa's greener side on a scenic tour through Dow's Lake, the Dominion Arboretum, Rideau Canal areas, and Hog's Back Falls.

This tour is ideal for couples, families, photographers, seniors, and groups who want a relaxed nature-focused Ottawa experience without a long hike or full-day trip.

Pick-up and drop-off are included from Fairmont Chateau Laurier, nearby downtown Ottawa hotels, or another confirmed Ottawa-area location.

After pick-up, travel from downtown Ottawa toward the Rideau Canal and Dow's Lake area. This part of the city offers a softer and more scenic side of Ottawa, with waterfront views, parkland, gardens, and tree-lined roads.

Continue through the Dominion Arboretum and the Central Experimental Farm area. Depending on the season, guests will see mature trees, landscaped green spaces, gardens, spring blossoms, summer greenery, or autumn colours. The route is especially attractive for photography and relaxed sightseeing.

The tour then continues to Hog's Back Park and Hog's Back Falls, one of Ottawa's best-known waterfall areas. Guests can enjoy a short walk to available viewing points and take photographs of the falls, river, and surrounding park scenery.

This tour is designed for guests who want to experience Ottawa's natural beauty without a long hike or a full-day outing. It is suitable for couples, families, seniors, photographers, and visitors who prefer peaceful scenery over busy downtown streets.

The experience is primarily a comfortable vehicle-based sightseeing tour, with optional short walks. Minor adjustments to the driving route may occasionally occur due to local traffic or temporary roadwork, while keeping all featured stops intact.

After the final stop, guests are returned to Fairmont Chateau Laurier, a nearby downtown hotel, or another confirmed Ottawa-area location.
