A Wonderful Way To See The Many Sides Of Canada
A
Canada tour package is a smart way to see many of the beautiful,
interesting and historically significant attractions in the country
often
called “The Great White North’. While ice hockey, maple syrup and the
Mounties are all a part of the Canadian experience, tour packages offer
you very much more.In Eastern Canada, some locations you may visit are:
• wondrous Niagara Falls, Canada Side
• cosmopolitan Toronto
• quaint Old Montreal
• walled Quebec City
On the other hand, your tastes may veer towards Western Canada, where you will find:
• the impressive Canadian Rockies
• Vancouver Island
• towering evergreen forests
It doesn’t matter which side of Canada you visit, there is something here for everyone! Tours include carefully thought out and planned stops and activities, often with a flat fee that covers travel, admission, meals and hotel stay where applicable. You can book any one of the many Canadian bus tours and rest assured that it takes in the places, sights and events you are most eager to see.
When it comes to Eastern Canada tours, many convenient one-day bus tours are available. Packages also often include multiday bus trips that start in Montreal or Toronto. Of course, if you are across the border, then you can easily find Eastern Canada tours that originate in New York or New Jersey.
Popular attractions on these Eastern Canada tours include:
• the 775-foot Skylon Tower topped by the Revolving Dining Room restaurant
• castles and mansions of the Thousand Islands
• a photo stop at the Notre Dame Basilica (once the largest church in North America)
• the heart-pounding roar of Niagara Falls witnessed from both sides of the border
Scheduled stops may vary with the season, to give you the optimum tour experience. For example, you may take a Lake Ontario cruise in the summer or visit gothic Casa Loma in the winter. If you wish to take a Maid Of The Mist boat tour through the falls then the best dates for your trip are April/May to October/November. Apart from bus tours, you also have the option of helicopter tours that take you above the rainbow colored foam and spray for incredible aerial views of the majestic Niagara Falls. You may choose to tour by private plane as well, with visits to many of the scenic areas that surround the Falls, accompanied by your own professional tour guide.
Perhaps, the attractions of Eastern Canada are not enough to satisfy your yearning to experience the country’s rich culture and history. In that case, Canada tours from Toronto can take you across the length and breadth of the country, if that is your desire. One intriguing option is a transcontinental two-week excursion by rail. Some of the places you get to visit along the way are:
• Columbia Icefield
• Jasper and Glacier National Parks
• historic Gastown and Gastown Tours
• the Gulf Islands
Aboard the train, you can enjoy the comfort of a private bedroom, meals and the opportunity to meet fellow explorers from around the world.
Western Canada has its own set of delightful must-see locations, which are featured in many of the tours that take you to that side of the country. Whether your journey begins in Seattle, Vancouver or Calgary, Western Canada tours make the Canadian Rockies a staple of their itinerary. These multiday Canadian Rockies vacation packages take into consideration the different modes in which you would like to make your way through the crisp and serene beauty of the Rockies.
