Overview

The Bow River; The Indigenous Cree First Nations made bows from Douglas firs that grow along its banks, where the early fur traders began and where people come to enjoy the clear glacial-fed river The Calgary classic "The King Eddie" still remains a YYC icon, since 1905. It's the cornerstone of music, community, and culture, building on its storied musical legacy. Live music everySunday Mornings at 11:30 am and many other dates and times. Classic! The authentic Rolling recording studio from the '60s! Through the window at the King Eddie Pub. The Bank & Baron pub. It's tucked into one of Alberta's most historical buildings in downtown Calgary.

    The dynamic, triple-glazed facade is composed of a modular, hexagonal pattern that expresses the library's aims to provide a space that invites in all visitors.

  • St. Patrick's Island Park

    One of Calgary’s oldest parks, the development of St. Patrick’s Island as a public space began in the late 1890s and gained momentum with the construction of a bridge to the island in the early 1900s. More than a century later, this all-but-forgotten treasure at the city’s centre has re-emerged as an amenity-rich, family-friendly—and National Urban Design Award-winning park. We can check out the beach in the summer months, a restored channel where we can wade into the water and venture safely out onto a gravel bar. Or just enjoy the views! Also, we will seee Lowland Channel – a seasonal riparian wetland at the heart of the island, with an elevated boardwalk for no-impact access to the wetland and the Gallery Forest, an important habitat for nesting eagles, owls and songbirds. We will also identify some plants and tress the first nations would have used as tea, and medicines.

    Olympic Plaza was built in 1988 for the Olympic Winter Games in Calgary as the site of the medal presentation ceremonies.

    The Bank and Baron P.U.B. is Located on Calgary’s Stephen Ave. It is a beauty! Named after George Stephen, 1st Baron Mount Stephen, the first president of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Stephen Avenue contains a high concentration of registered historic buildings and the street itself was declared a Canadian historic site in 2002. My mom worked here when it was a bank in the 1960's and bought her wedding dress in the shop across the street1

Great tour and great tour guide. Sue is a gem!

Published on Nov, 2024

Yes. That is the answer you should choose when deciding if you want to book a sightseeing tour with Sue. We had a great time with her during our trip to Calgary. She has such a nice demeanor, friendly and tenacious. It is evident that she genuinely cares that her guests have a nice time learning about the city. She gave us a variety of experiences… from little known gems to neighborhood character… from iconic building interiors to area history. At the end of our time together we felt like we had made a friend. Thank you Sue and huzzah to those who say “yes!”
