    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.

    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

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

    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

    You forgot two major points about Kingston - 1. Rent is criminally high.
    2. A great, great city if you never want to get laid.

    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!

    I was born and raised in Peterborough so this was such an interesting video for me! I really never thought much about all the cool places that were "close" to me growing up. I'm new to your channel and looking forward to checking out more. Thanks for sharing :)

    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  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      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 did so well multitasking with the umbrella, camera and speaking over the sound of traffic in the rain ☔️ guessing it was raining but not too cold?

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha thanks - multitasking is one of my special talents. 😂 It was actually really warm out, so the rain was refreshing.

    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 🍁

    I'd be really into trying the different breweries -- and anytime I can try amazing tacos, I'm game! Love that you put this together. I forget how cool of a city Kingston is!

  • @Explorcation
    @Explorcation 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    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  3 ปีที่แล้ว

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

    Looks like such a cool place! The old prison especially sold us, we love that! We definitely want to explore Canada more once it’s safe for us to get up there!

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  3 ปีที่แล้ว +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.

    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?

    Very informative and well paced video! I would love walk around the harbour or along the waterfront paths. Craft beer breweries would definitely be on our list too! I think my boyfriend would find the military museum really interesting.

    • @TheAverageTourist

    Great overview. Of course you two can't miss the brewery. The food looks good there as we. Did you do the ghost trolley tour as well? I love Engine 1095 as well, maybe I am still a kid 😅

    • @TheAverageTourist

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

      It was a great city and easy to see the top sights on your list in a weekend. If you ever do an Ontario trip - you can see so many great cities all within a pretty short drive.
