As we stroll through Charlottetown's lively center, we will uncover Victoria Row, a hub where local musicians gather to present live performances daily. Nearby is the Confederation Centre of the Arts, a venue that has celebrated the beloved play Anne of Green Gables for over five decades.

Throughout the tour, we will also visit key locations including the Confederation Court Mall, Town Hall, Rochford Square, and other governmental edifices such as Beaconsfield Historic House and Government House.

Our exploration will culminate at the harbourside, where we will pass by the Culinary Institute of Canada and the historic Queen Charlotte Armoury, eventually returning to our starting point to conclude this enriching 2-hour guided tour.
