Ottawa Hybrid Itinerary - Self-Guided Walks with Gray Line and Lady Dive

Some travelers want structure without rigidity. A hybrid approach works beautifully in Ottawa: use buses for macro movement, then walk short curated loops for neighborhood texture.

Hybrid model in one sentence

Ride far, walk deep, repeat.

How to apply it

1. Use Gray Line to reach a district efficiently.
2. Walk a 30-45 minute micro-loop.
3. Reboard and shift to a different district mood.
4. Insert Lady Dive when you want a perspective reset.
