A Good one

I like the tour which is on land and at lack. A different experience that I did the first time. Also, tour guide was friendly and smiling.

A fun adventure

Terrific way to see the city sights! Cameron - our tour guide - was entertaining while being informative, and the bus was fascinating.

Great tour

A staple from Ottawa! It wasn't our first trip in the capital but it was our first time on this amphibus, and it was totally worth it! The view is really nice and our guide was awesome.

Amazing

I enjoyed the city my favorite place wad the old downtown where all the markets are . I went to some museums they were great and you need to set a lot of time for the museums.

An excellent trip both on land and on the river, with a first class driver and host

Published on Oct, 2024

We booked the Amphibus tour on-line just an hour before going on it. They were very efficient and the bus left on time. We paid 10 CD$ extra each to guarantee seats in the first two rows which was super, but even further back on the bus the tour would have been excellent. We saw lots of famous landmarks both on the road part of the journey and on the water, but without doubt the section of the tour on the river was the most fun - especially the big splash as we entered the water! Our host and guide Gabriella was amazing, speaking fluently in English and French and full of interesting information delivered with lots of fun and humour. Captain Keith was an excellent driver. Highly recommended and well worth the money.
