What to expect
-
Kingston Waterfront
The tour begins from our ticket office at 200 Ontario Street featuring wonderful views of the Kingston Waterfront.
-
Kingston City Hall
Kingston City Hall was completed in 1844, with its scale and design reflective of Kingston's status as the capital of the Province of Canada at that time. The architect chosen for the project in 1841 was George Browne, and the building was believed to be one of Browne's most outstanding works. The building was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1961
-
Kingston Public Market
The Kingston Public Market is the oldest market in Ontario and has been providing food and a sense of community to residents of Kingston since 1801.
-
Hochelaga Inn
We share why Hochelaga Inn, built in 1879 for John McIntyre, a prominent Kingston lawyer and mayor, is our favourite haunted hotel in the city!
-
Chalmers United Church
The building was constructed in 1890 as The Chalmers Free Presbyterian Church. It was renamed to Chalmers United Church in 1925 with the creation of the United Church of Canada. It has a great ghost story!
-
St. George's Cathedral
With its congregation dating to 1783, the Cathedral is associated with the first organized Anglican parish in Ontario. Started in 1825, St. George's replaced a smaller structure built a short distance away in 1792. The core of the existing church was built of stone to the design of Kingston architect Thomas Rogers in 1825. The building was substantially enlarged in the 1840s with the addition of a nave bay, a large clock tower and an entrance portico comprised of a pediment supported by four columns. Completely gutted by fire in 1899, the church was quickly rebuilt under the direction of Joseph Power & Son. In 1975, the City of Kingston designated the church under the Ontario Heritage Act and, in 1981, the Ontario Heritage Trust secured a heritage easement on the building.
