Good. First driver (morning of 13th of May) was great. Picked us up at the hotel. Driver we picked up at the tulip festival didn’t show at around 11:35. Driver that came at 12:15 - driving could use a little calmness. Also sat up top and the mic didn’t work so the guide just stayed downstairs.

The City Tour was on September 9 noon was fantastic. The bus went on a smooth and steady ride and stops at various museums. The route was concise from Elgin to Lansdowne, Dow's Lake to Byward Market, Sussex to Rockcliffe area, before turning around at the Aviation Museum. We went across to the Quebec side on Alexander Bridge, came back on Portage, and came back on Wellington. The Parliament Buildings were right in front of us due to road closure with exception to our bus!

The route was perfect. It brought us to several points of interest. The tour guide spoke clearly in both English & French. It was very informative. We could sit inside the bus or on the open deck above. One recommendation: The Get Your Guide prices were in Euros…perhaps the prices should be listed in Canadian funds…Ottawa is a Canadian City after all.
