Family Entertainment
Take your little, or big, unit to the Calgary Zoo. Here your family will find well looked after animals. Children can have fun at the Calgary petting zoo and food isn’t scarce around these parts. It’s a full day’s activity for the entire family at entirely affordable rates.
Glenbow Museum
Another monumental attraction for tourists, and possibly one of the reasons you should visit Calgary, is for the Glenbow Museum. This architectural design has been created to house local and international artworks from around the world. So if you have an eye for the finer things in life, this would be an impressive stop along your travels.
Scenic Inspiration
As we have already mentioned, Calgary is one helluva destination to visit purely for scenic purposes. If you are planning to take your camera with or you are looking for a location that has been created purely for your camera, so to speak, you have met your match. We advise you take your power banks with you as the trails, forest and landscaping holds hours of footage hard to capture any other way.
Calgary Heritage Park
The Heritage Park in Calgary is located right beside the Glenmore Reservoir which is one of the reasons the park has been marked a heritage site. The site holds important history for the citizens of Calgary and visitors stand to learn and appreciate much from a booked tour. Nestled in the park, visitors are welcome to taste and explore candy shops for the kids, bakeries for a sweet tooth, food to calm the hunger, a theme park for entertainment and many other landscape monuments that adds character to the park. Make this an entire fun day for the family.
Biking Around
If you are into the fitness scene or prefer to be eco-friendly, you can choose to rent a bike or a few for the family. Cycle the streets of Calgary with your family or go solo, but don’t forget your camera because you won’t be able to snap these shots up in a cab or a taxi. Use this opportunity to stop at restaurants, inns and stalls along your journey, the perfect opportunity to buy a few souvenirs for loved ones.
