Explore Majestic Landscapes

Explore Majestic Landscapes

The Canadian Rockies are a playground for outdoor enthusiasts, with towering mountains, crystal-clear lakes, and dense forests waiting to be explored. Dig for dinosaurs in the Badlands. Hike through the stunning scenery of Banff and Jasper National Parks. Paddle through the serene waters of Lake Louise. Abseil glaciers and soak in hot springs. Or embark on a scenic drive along the Cabot Trail, where rugged cliffs and sweeping ocean views will take your breath away.
Perhaps the most famous natural beauty on Canada’s roster is Niagara Falls. See the cascading waters from above or head into Horseshoe Falls by boat and feel the spray of the mighty waterfall up close.

Make the Most of City Life

Make the Most of City Life

Canada may be a natural wonderland. But cities in Canada pack a punch with things to see and do. A holiday to Vancouver gives a glimpse into Canada’s diverse cities. Spend one day walking through towering skyscrapers and exploring chic neighbourhoods. The next, be immersed in nature with whale watching, cliff walks, and treetop adventures. Climb Grouse Mountain by cable car and watch world-famous lumberjack shows or even enjoy a spot of breakfast with grizzly bears.

The Wintery Wilderness

The Wintery Wilderness

Beyond the snow-kissed slopes and ski resorts in Whistler lies a wintery wonderland ready to be explored. Where iconic great lakes lay untouched, temperatures plummet and wildlife like wolves, cougars, and moose roam free, the North is an adventure that needs to be seen to be believed. Hop on an Arctic safari, chase dazzling northern lights, kayak with beluga whales, and search for allusive polar bears.

Experience Cultural Diversity

Experience Cultural Diversity

Canada is a melting pot of cultures, where Indigenous traditions, European heritage, and immigrant influences come together to create a vibrant tapestry of diversity. Explore the historic streets of Old Montreal, where cobblestone lanes and centuries-old buildings transport you back in time. Attend a powwow on a First Nations reservation, where traditional dances and ceremonies celebrate Indigenous culture and spirituality.

food and drink

Food & Drink

From coast to coast, Canada's culinary scene is as diverse as its landscapes, with flavours that reflect the country's multicultural heritage and abundant natural resources. Feast on fresh seafood on the East Coast, where lobster boils and seafood chowder are local specialities. Sample poutine in Quebec, a delicious concoction of fries, cheese curds, and gravy that's sure to satisfy any craving. Indulge in farm-to-table dining in the fertile Okanagan Valley, where vineyards and orchards produce some of the country's finest wines and artisanal foods. A symbol of the Great White North, maple syrup is a must on your holiday to Canada. Head to a sugar shack and enjoy a pancake breakfast dosed in this sticky sweet treat. Simple yet oh-so delicious.
