With our walking shoes on, we cover a lot of ground and experience the highlights that vibrant Calgary has to offer.This guided walking tour will cover the history of Downtown and start with a walk along Stephen Avenue which is a National Historic Site of Canada. It consists of nearly three dozen commercial buildings dating from the 1880-1930 era (known as the Sandstone Era), with mostly retail businesses, restaurants, former banks, and a church. A stop at the Iconic Alberta Boot Company with a guided history tour. The iconic Alberta Boots are inspired by the Canadian prairie roots but evolve to suit the modern cowboy and cowgirl. From the city to the ranch, the western spirit is expressed by proudly handcrafting truly authentic boots. For lunch, we walk to the famous Calgary Tower standing 191 meters above the downtown core, with the best views in the city!
