We had the opportunity to experience this amazing floating tiki bar as part of a collaboration on our Insta page @agata_and_warren_travel
This is one incredible experience!!!!
The tiki bar is a 12-person floater that cruises down the Ottawa river.
It can be rented out for parties, groups, or corporate events.
There's a bar and you can buy snacks. However, you can also cater and bring your own.
The views are amazing!
Why not get in the spirit and host a Hawaiian night?

Absolutely fantastic experience with Mike and Gaby! Great hosts for our night cruise on the water. Had a pleasant surprise with some fireworks as well! It's always a good time with the palapas crew and I can't wait to go back next time! Having been on both Moana and Lilo.... I'll have to go for a third time to decide which one is my favorite. Till next time!

Thank you Palapa Tours!

It was a perfect ladies night out on your tour. We got beautiful pics and videos of our gorgeous city. A night making memories with fantastic hosts! Highly recommend Palapa tours for your next outing. Date night, team building or a night out with friends, you’ll love it all!

The best Ottawa boat tour!

The floating tiki bars are incredible. My daughter and I went on a Tuesday evening and had a great time enjoying Gabby’s cocktails while Mike captained and gave some funny historical references to the sights 🤣.

I’ve been on the other river tours and 100% recommend this one for any size of group from 1 to 12 (1 boat) or 24 (2 boats).

The bar is well stocked with wine beer and great mixed drinks!
We booked a private charter with Palapa Tours on Sunday Aug 21st with Captain Jacob and J Dog..they were absolutely the most amazing tour guides and great bartenders. Very personable and friendly. Would book this tour again.

Our evening cruise was a hit! Our extended family left at 8:30pm and enjoyed both day time and night time views! The crew was very friendly and the vibe was fun for teens right up to seniors. We highly recommend this experience!

I went on a tour with my coworkers… we had a blast! Great selection of drinks and a fun ride along the Ottawa River. A must for anyone visiting Ottawa. I highly recommend Palapa Tours.
Went on a Sunday night with the family and had an absolute blast! There were seven of us and we lucked out, because no one else booked, so it was essentially a private charter! (They also do private charters, as well as events)

Captain Jérome and First Mate Kim were so much fun, they were great company as we cruised down the Ottawa. The experience lasted an hour and a half and was so much more fun than a typical Ottawa River cruise. Highly recommend the sunset times, it really makes you appreciate the beauty of this city.

There's parking right at the pier, which was $10.35 ($8+tax) and you need to download an app to pay. There's also other parking in the area, and it's right across the Alexandra bridge from downtown if you decide to make a day of it. Not too far from the zipline either!

The owners were amazingly flexible since we had to reschedule a couple of times. I would hands down recommend this, one of my favourite new things to do in Ottawa!
