Where to Go on a Tour of Canada?
Where you want to go on an escorted tour of Canada is dependent on what you’d like to do and what you’d like to see.
Western Canada Tours
The provinces of British Columbia and Alberta are packed with natural wonders. Many tours begin in the inviting city of Vancouver, with its modern skyline and Pacific Ocean backdrop. Then, perhaps head into the Rocky Mountains, exploring the spectacular sights of Banff National Park, Jasper National Park, the Icefields Parkway, Lake Louise, Moraine Lake and the Columbia Icefield.
Western Canada is also a wildlife hotspot. Many tours will visit Vancouver Island, where you can expect some incredible whale and bear sightings, amongst other animals. You can also pair a tour of Western Canada with an Alaska cruise, with many ships departing from Vancouver.
Eastern Canada Tours
Eastern Canada is home to many of the country’s most characterful cities, each offering something a little different. Cosmopolitan Toronto is the gateway to wonderous Niagara Falls, whilst Ottawa offers historic charm. French-influenced Montreal transports you back to Europe, and Quebec City is steeped in old-world beauty.
Nova Scotia & The Canadian Maritimes Tours
This underrated part of Canada similarly boasts outstanding natural beauty. The Maritime Provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island are known for their miles and miles of rugged coastline, inviting fishing villages and striking scenery like the Bay of Fundy.
The Yukon Tours
This vast northwestern territory is one of the best places for a Northern Lights tour, or it can be combined with a tour of Alaska.
