Tour Overview:
We’re not just a tour company—we’re a floating family. When you step aboard a Palapa boat, you become part of our Ohana—a community built on fun, laughter, and unforgettable shared moments.
This 90-minute tropical escape is your chance to see Ottawa from its most majestic angle: the river. Glide past Parliament Hill, the Supreme Court, and the iconic Château Laurier—all without the big boat crowds. Along the way, swap stories, snap photos, and connect with fellow adventurers from around the world.
Your friendly local captain is more than a guide—they’re a storyteller, a vibe curator, and your connection to the river’s secrets, from historic gems to waterfront mansions.
Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, this isn’t just sightseeing—it’s an experience. Easy to book, impossible to forget, and always filled with the spirit of Ohana. Welcome aboard.
