“A WALK THROUGH HISTORY”
Take a walk through history – from the early 19th century into the early 20th century – while solving puzzles that lead you (on foot) from one historic part of the Byward Market to the next. Learn about the Market’s past and get a taste of its present, with food and beverage samples and an introduction to some of the city’s tastiest establishments. Ending at a local brewery, beer lovers may also participate in an optional taste challenge (must be 19yrs or older).
