    I've compiled a list of things to do if you're in Kingston, Ontario based on our recent travels to the area. I highly recommend the Kingston Pen tour. What activity do you think you'd like best?

      Is Kingston rent for a 1 bedroom more expensive than Kitchener or London ON ? I wonder what is the best place to live of these.

    Ha I live here. The trolly tours are really good too. They do a haunted tour as well. I recommend it. I’ve lived here for almost 20 years

    Would love to visit Fort Henry & Murney Tower. Looks like a great town with lots to do, yet aquaint.

      Yes it's a beautiful city to explore and we loved Fort Henry.

    I like the idea of taking a bicycle around town or kayaking while there. It is so beautiful. Also, the brewery might be nice as well. Safe travels!

    So many great options in Kingston. We would have to rent some paddleboards and hit up some breweries. The ghost tour sounded pretty interesting too.
    The tacos near the end were huge and looked delicious!

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  4 роки тому

      The paddleboarding looked really cool but it was very rough waters so we would have just been swimming beside our paddle boards 😂

  • @TravelInteresante
    @TravelInteresante 4 роки тому +2

    It would be awesome to ride a bicycle by that beach, looking very nice. Brewing and culinary experiences are always the most attractive things for us while traveling. Those tacos were looking really good. Going on a cruise would be something we would love to do in the Kingston area for sure!

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  4 роки тому

      I really liked how many waterfront trails they had. The culinary selections were actually quite diverse and so many to choose from!

    Locomotive 1095 was built about 200 meters from where it sits at the now defunct Canadian Locomotive Company. It was the second largest such factory in the British Empire 🍁

    Awesome vlog guys! I wish i was good at water sports LOL. I've never been to Kingston but the KP tour looked really cool and I'd love to try those fish tacos!! That's one of my favorite dishes 😋

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  4 роки тому

      I'm not good at water sports either... I'd be swimming beside my kayak or paddle board if I rented one! The food was great and the KP tour was so interesting :)

    You forgot two major points about Kingston - 1. Rent is criminally high.

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  4 роки тому +1

      The prison tour was so cool. There were even former prison guards inside (either volunteering or working?) to tell you personal stories of working there. It was so cool to hear about the riots.

      We have a brewery radar built in, we just naturally find them 😂 Nothing wrong with being a kid at heart!

    Wayne is a fan of forts, as long as they not super touristy. It would be fun to kayak. That is a long time for a penitentiary to be running! Wayne has been to Kingston, but very briefly. Which was your favorite of these activities?

    We love food and we love a great craft brew. Most excited to try local offerings in kingston at both breweries, we always try to go to a local brewery in any new city and we love fish tacos :) 🌮

    • @TheAverageTourist

My husband would love the Murney Tower museum since he is super interested in military artifacts. Hopefully next year we can go to all these fun places you recommended. 😊
