Ottawa - ByWard Market Food Tour

Discover the sights and flavours of the ByWard Market, one of our most sought-after walking tours. When British Colonel John By was tasked with building the Rideau Canal, his mission also took in the planning of the region's very first commercial district: the ByWard Market. Your C'est Bon guide winds you through this lively market zone, sharing stories about its history and its distinctive signs, while you uncover both local and international eateries beloved by residents. Your experience includes a knowledgeable guide, who tells you about the ByWard's rich history and the food traditions born of its evolution. You also choose the language of your guide, English or French. The tour further introduces you to the neighbourhood's points of interest: the ByWard Market Pavilion, the Ottawa Letters, the York Street Plaza, the Courtyards, the Totem Pole of Canada, and many more sights besides.
