Amazing audio tour of Picton, Ontario! - I absolutely loved this audio tour of Picton! The tour guide/narrator, Ewa, shares her extensive ecological and historical knowledge of the area in the most entertaining ways! I learned many new things (did you know that 30% forest coverage is the bare minimum needed to protect biodiversity?) and even a new word (solastalgia). 100% recommend this experience!

A fascinating look at Picton's hidden gems - I learned more about Picton's natural history during this tour than I had in the previous decade living in Prince Edward County. There's a wonderful blend of expertise and gentle humour, and it takes you through some beautiful spots just a few blocks off main street - highly recommended!

Watch for the turtle logs! - This tour showcases Ewa's extensive knowledge and sparkling sense of humour. I have been living on this land for 16 years and discovered there were many things I didn't know about it. I did not know that I lived on a fault line!

Fantastic, super fun and educational - I so, so thoroughly enjoyed this guided walk! Ewa’s voice is so soothing and even though I have lived in this very neighbourhood for almost 4 years, I have learned a ton of super interesting little tidbits! I could not have done anything more fun than this, to celebrate my birthday with! What a great way to start a day! I was sad when it ended and I can’t wait for the next tour!
