Historic Edwardian steamship welcomes visitors back to Kingston with daily guided tours
The Great Lakes Museum in Kingston has reopened the historic S.S. Keewatin for its third public season, giving visitors another chance to explore one of Canada’s most unique maritime attractions.
Beginning May 16, guests once again gained the opportunity to board the world’s last remaining Edwardian passenger steamship and learn about its history through guided tours at the waterfront museum.
The ship, which once carried passengers across the Great Lakes, is now permanently docked at the museum and offers four different tour experiences throughout the season.
Museum officials say the tours allow visitors to step back in time and see preserved cabins, dining areas and engine spaces from a bygone era of travel.
The museum will offer regular guided tours of the ship throughout the season with four different experiences to choose from.
The Great Lakes Museum is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tour information and tickets are available through the Great Lakes Museum website.
