❓Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I book early?
Ottawa’s Tulip Festival coincides with peak bloom and high hotel demand. Our centrally located hotels — such as the Lord Elgin Hotel — fill quickly during festival season, so early booking is strongly recommended.
Can I reserve my seat with a deposit?
Yes. You can secure your seat with a
10% deposit, with the remaining balance due prior to departure.
Because travel plans can change, we always recommend
travel insurance for added peace of mind.
Is this tour suitable for seniors?
Absolutely. Our journeys are designed for independent, active travelers who enjoy exploring at a comfortable pace.
While we are not an assisted-travel operator, our tours are well suited for guests who can manage daily activities and board a coach independently. Many of our travelers join us solo and return year after year.
What is the activity level and how much walking is involved?
Our tours follow a Slow Travel philosophy, focusing on meaningful experiences rather than rushing between attractions.
Guests should be comfortable walking 20–30 minutes at a time, sometimes on park paths or historic streets that may include uneven surfaces.

We focus on Signature Stays — carefully selected, centrally located hotels that add character and convenience to your journey.
For this tour, guests stay at the historic Lord Elgin Hotel in downtown Ottawa, steps from Parliament Hill and the Rideau Canal.
What happens if I need to cancel my booking?
Deposits are non-refundable.
If you cancel 45 days or more before departure (and before paying your final balance), we offer a one-time credit toward another CosmoVista tour within 12 months.
Once a tour is paid in full, the booking becomes 100% non-refundable, which is why we strongly recommend travel insurance.
