Fort Edmonton Park

The park is the perfect kid-friendly attraction. This trip down memory lane will introduce your family to four periods in Edmonton’s history. You’ll want to spend at least three hours, so your family will have time to take part in as many activities as possible.

Tip: If you want to avoid the trouble of carrying a lunch with you, pre-order a picnic lunch basket from the Jasper House Bakery.

The High Level Streetcar

The beautifully restored streetcars and informative conductors will take your family on an unforgettable trip down memory lane. You’ll also enjoy a wonderful view of the river from the world’s highest streetcar bridge.

Tip: If you plan your trip on Saturday, you’ll also be able to pay a visit to the Old Strathcona Farmer’s Market.

Telus World of Science

It is a hands-on educational experience the whole family will enjoy. Your admission includes the exhibit galleries, science demonstrations and full-dome shows. You can enjoy educational high-quality 3D movies but the cost is not included in admission.
