Travel Canada
Welcome to Canada!
Canada is one big outdoor adventure playground. Whether it’s hiking in the jaw-dropping Rocky Mountains, skiing in Banff, mountain biking in Whistler, surfing in Nova Scotia, kayaking in Ontario or wreck-diving in Newfoundland you can guarantee the adrenaline is going to be pumping!
Canada is best experienced on a road trip. Drive along the Sea to Sky Highway with towering mountains on one side and emerald waters on the other, drive past ancient glaciers and thundering canyons on the Icefield Parkway, along untouched rugged coastline in Nova Scotia and vast prairie expanse in Saskatchewan. It’s a country of incredibly diverse landscapes with photo stops around every corner.
For out of this world wildlife, Canada’s your place. Grizzly bears, black bears, polar bears, moose, elk, marmots, whales, beaver, bison, caribou, walrus, Atlantic puffin and lynx…the list is endless. For the ultimate experience, stay in a remote lodge to see these animals in their natural habitats.
Canadian cities are not to be put on the back burner, however. Head to Vancouver, the country’s foodie capital for first-class dining and drinking with striking mountain vistas, explore the winding cobbled streets of enchanting Quebec or visit the numerous galleries and museums of Toronto.
