Located approximately 200 km west of Montreal, Canada’s capital city Ottawa is an interesting and popular day-trip destination. No visit would be complete without taking the time to visit Parliament Hill and the famous Rideau Canal, which connects the city to Lake Ontario. In summer you can walk or cycle alongside the canal and in winter you can bring along your ice skates. Ottawa is home to seven outstanding museums – choose your favorite or stay overnight and see them all. The Ottawa River offers all kinds of water sports in summer including white-water rafting, paddle boarding and more. To get a great overview in a day you could join a hop-on-hop-off bus tour of the major tourist attractions.
