Hello, everyone. I am Conrad - one of Ottawa's most experienced tour guides (over 500 tours with TBL), certainly Ottawa's most reviewed guide. As a home-town boy who has lived here for over 60 years, I can say I am known for clear and correct knowledge of the history of Ottawa and environs. My family has roots here going back over 120 years. Since graduating from the University of Ottawa (BA Hon, History, '78) I have been giving tours for groups, individuals, and for travel companies. Now, as an independent guide with With ToursByLocals I can better serve you by creating custom tours to fit your needs. Whether you want a small group short walking tour of the downtown area, a car tour, or a full day on a bus, I can give you the most comprehensive, entertaining tour of your entire holiday. Let me show you my home town as only a local could. Giving tours since 1978. Lifetime resident of Ottawa. Education: U of Ottawa, BA (HON) History, '78. Qualified in First Aid and CPR. Recent police background check. I'm one of the good guys! I do only one tour a day. My calendar may show the whole day as open, but that is deliberate, allowing you to choose a start time in the morning or afternoon. Please check with me before booking to ensure we can get together at the time of your choice.
