15 Best Things To Do In Winnipeg, Canada For Travelers

Many of the animals in this zoo are rescues so we had no problem at all visiting the Assiniboine Park Zoo knowing that the animals were in good care. 

2. Journey To Churchill

The Journey to Churchill is one of the top attractions in Manitoba and is a close second to heading up to Churchill, Manitoba.

3. Underwater Tunnel

A highlight of the zoo is definitely the underwater display. We had the privilege of watching a polar bear swim above a glass walkway.
