Historic Red River: Lower Fort Garry & Beyond Private Tour
CA$336This day-trip begins with a drive down the historic River Road Parkway, pausing at St. Andrews Rectory for tea, dainties, and a tour of 19th-century life. Upon arrival at Lower Fort Garry National Historic Site—the most complete stone fur-trading post in North America—you will step back in time. The tour explores the massive stone fort through a stroll among original limestone buildings, where costumed interpreters bring the vibrant stories and daily rhythms of the 1800s fur trade to life. The journey continues into Lockport for a relaxing lunch at a local restaurant. Afterward, the day shifts to a unique engineering marvel at the St. Andrews Lock and Dam, the only one of its kind in North America. Here, American White Pelicans congregate, allowing you to stand mere feet from these massive birds. Cap off the adventure with a stop at the colossal Red River Floodway to learn about the region's historic floods, before enjoying a short, relaxing drive back to the city.

The Wickedest City Walk Inside the Manitoba Legislative Building
CA$34.44 CA$27.55Why is there a sphinx on the roof of Manitoba's Legislative Building? Why is a mysterious black star set into its floor? And why did the YMCA once brand Winnipeg the wickedest city in Canada? On this 90-minute walking tour through the city's historic government district, you'll uncover the answers—and hear the outrageous-but-true stories the history books leave out. Meet the first mayor who kidnapped his own election opponent, the criminal who pulled off one of the biggest gold heists in Canadian history only to be foiled by a blizzard, and the police chief caught in his own brothel raid. Then step inside the Legislative Building itself—one of the most beautiful government buildings in North America and, according to some, a secret replica of King Solomon's temple, built with hidden symbols most visitors walk right past. Funny, surprising, and completely true, it's Winnipeg history told the way it deserves to be—at a relaxed pace, in small groups, with seating at most stops.
