Review

Thoroughly researched and well-organized, Ottawa with Kids is a superb
guide to the city’s many highlights; recommended visits to the
environs are included as well. The book contains suggested itineraries
for two- to four-day visits, Ottawa’s top 10 family attractions,
historical notes, emergency numbers, and information on walks, bicycle
tours, accommodations (including guesthouses), local camping grounds,
seasonal events, culture, sports, shopping, restaurants (the suggested
eatery Canal Ritz is a touch trendy for children), and much more. Maps
and black-and-white photos accompany this readable and attractively
designed guide.
