Birthplace of Canada: A Self-Guided Audio Tour of Charlottetown

Despre activitate

Charlottetown isn't just Prince Edward Island's capital — it's where Canada itself was born. This self-guided audio tour starts right at Port Charlottetown and walks you through the rooms and streets where the 1864 Confederation talks took shape, GPS-triggered so the narration finds you automatically at every stop.

Highlights:

  • Step inside Province House National Historic Site, where the 1864 Confederation Conference began.
  • Hear the history behind St. Dunstan's Basilica and St. Peter's Cathedral.
  • Wander past Beaconsfield Historic House and the Irish Settlers Memorial.
  • Browse Founders' Food Hall & Market and the Culinary Institute of Canada.
  • Finish at the harbour front by Peakes Quay Marina.

Narrated by a seventh-generation Islander, the tour goes at your own pace — pause, restart, or pick it back up later. No set start time, no group to keep up with: perfect if you're working around a cruise ship schedule or just want Charlottetown on your own terms.
