Priced at $327 round trip. The route covers 4,722 miles round trip.
Ottawa offers a polished but approachable capital experience, where national landmarks, green space, and a compact downtown make it easy to explore on foot or by bike. Travelers come for the Parliament Buildings overlooking the Ottawa River, the museums clustered near the center of the city, and the scenic Rideau Canal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that transforms with the seasons. Spring and summer are ideal for outdoor sightseeing, patio dining, and festivals, while autumn brings colorful foliage along the canal and in nearby parks. Winter is especially appealing for those drawn to cold-weather activities, including skating on the canal when conditions allow.
The city’s most rewarding neighborhoods each have their own character: the historic ByWard Market for food, nightlife, and local shopping; Centretown for easy access to major sights; and Westboro and Wellington West for a more local feel, with independent cafés, boutiques, and galleries. Ottawa’s cultural identity is shaped by both English and French Canada, and that bilingual character shows up in its museums, public institutions, and dining scene. Visitors can expect everything from classic Canadian fare and Québécois comfort food to innovative restaurants and a strong coffee culture, making Ottawa a destination that balances civic grandeur with everyday livability.
