You can’t resist the charms of Canada’s capital. Friendly and polite, welcoming and relaxed, Ottawa reflects this country’s best characteristics. A calming canal twists its way through town, its banks lined with parks, its waters inviting summer boat rides or winter ice skaters. Imposing Parliament Hill might dominate here, but so do craft breweries, open-air markets and world-class museums.
Visit Ottawa: get started
Ottawa is one of the best cities in Canada for family vacations. Plan things to do in Ottawa with the kids, like visiting the National Gallery of Canada or walking by the Rideau Canal. Once you’ve checked off sightseeing, enjoy a stay at the best places thanks to our Ottawa packages that include flight and hotel.
