Day 1 - Embracing the Rivers and Bridges

Begin your Saskatoon journey with a leisurely walk along the Meewasin Valley Trail. Here, you'll soak in the scenic views of the South Saskatchewan River – not just a regular river, but a sparkling thread weaving the urban fabric of Saskatoon. From there, head to numerous picturesque bridges. You'll start with the iconic Broadway Bridge, a perfect spot for those Instagram-worthy shots. Then, it's time for a visit to Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park and Zoo. Want to see what life under the ocean looks like in the middle of the Prairies? That's where you're headed. Wrap up day one with a delightful dinner at Riversdale, a neighborhood known for its hip food and drink scene.

Day 2 - Soaking in Saskatoon's Cultural Tapestry

Day two is all about indulging in culture. First, we're off to the Remai Modern Art Museum. Consider it a cultural time travel capsule: an array of art from various periods. It's home to the world’s most comprehensive collection of Picasso linocut prints. That's quite a feather in Saskatoon's hat, isn't it? From there, enjoy the vibrant cuisine at Ayden Kitchen & Bar, showcasing the best of Saskatchewan’s unique ingredients. In the afternoon, get lost in an era bygone while exploring the Western Development Museum. Ever dreamed of stepping into a 1910 Boomtown? Here you go. Evening? It's a lively affair at Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra offering the best of classical music.

Day 3 - Prairies Charm and Unique Experiences

Kickstart the last day with a visit to Wanuskewin, a National Historic site that portrays the life and culture of Northern Plains Indigenous peoples. After an immersive experience, it's time to satiate our taste buds at The Berry Barn, offering quintessential Prairie dining with captivating river views. In the afternoon, immerse yourself in a unique, hands-on experience at The Black Fox Farm & Distillery, where you can pick your flowers or have a taste of distinctly flavored spirits. Our 3-day Saskatoon sojourn wraps up with a tranquil sunset walk at University Bridge, bidding adieu to the stunning city of bridges and culture as the sun dips below the horizon.
