UNCOVER WINNIPEG'S BEST-KEPT SECRETS

Experience the charming and historic local neighbourhoods and off-the-beaten path attractions that most tours don't cover. Plus, we take you for a walk through the Back Alley Arctic Outdoor Art Gallery—the definition of a hidden gem! Though barely mentioned in local tourist guides due to its out-of-the-way location, this stunning collection of Arctic murals by local artist Kal Barteski is one of the most popular parts of our tour—and a great time to stretch your legs and enjoy the sunshine.
