The app covered the main places in the city. The speech was clear and easy to follow. The app took a little bit of getting used to, but then it worked well. Interesting to find out about the Parliament buildings though was a little thin on details. Good to hear about some of the the less well-known places, for example, the market area and the totem pole.

Our journey will take us through the heart of Ottawa, exploring the city's past and its role in shaping the nation. You’ll see the art, sculptures, markets, memorials, walking streets, churches, parliament building and so much more. Go at your own pace, anytime. This tour is location aware and plays as you walk. Feel free to put your phone in your pocket and explore with your head up. The tour provides engaging audio and sound effects to set the mood and tell the story of Ottawa. Go anytime, 24/7/365, the tour is all outside.
