About Bytown Travel

Bytown Travel publishes practical, opinionated travel guides for Ottawa and the towns, drives and weekend escapes within a few hours of the capital. We write for people who want to plan a good trip without sorting through sponsored content or recycled top-ten lists. Every recommendation comes from real visits, and if something is not worth your time, we will say so. The name comes from Bytown, the original settlement that became Ottawa, because the best way to understand a city is to know where it started.
