YACHT ON THE OTTAWA RIVER

Discover Ottawa's most unique sightseeing experience aboard a luxury yacht on the beautiful Ottawa River. This intimate 1-hour evening cruise offers spectacular views of Parliament Hill, the Canadian Museum of History, Rideau Falls, the Governor General's residence, the Prime Minister's official residence, and Ottawa's stunning waterfront.

Unlike large, crowded tour boats, you'll enjoy a relaxed small-group experience aboard a real yacht with a professional Transport Canada-certified captain and crew. Stretch out on spacious decks, capture incredible photos, and enjoy drinks from our licensed onboard bar while taking in the city's skyline from the water.

Whether you're visiting Ottawa, planning a romantic evening, celebrating a special occasion, or simply looking for one of the city's best experiences, this cruise combines luxury, comfort, and unforgettable scenery.

Your tour departs from our marina just minutes from downtown Ottawa and Gatineau. With limited seating, every guest enjoys plenty of space and a premium atmosphere.

Experience Ottawa from its most beautiful vantage point—the river—and create memories that will last long after your trip is over. Perfect for couples, families, friends, and solo travellers looking for a truly memorable Ottawa experience.
