What's this trip about?

    This is an escorted tour. It’s perfect if you prefer not to do your own driving and want to see as many sights as you can during your vacation.  GOOD NEWS - The local tour operator will no longer require a COVID-19 vaccination for travelers as of March 1, 2023.  For travelers departing before March 1, the tour operator requires that travelers aged 12 and older provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccination in the form of written documentation (paper or electronic copy), in English, for all vacations. Proof of vaccination must be completed at least 14 days prior to the tour start date. *Exceptions apply to children who do not qualify for vaccination. You've heard about Canada's must-see city attractions and pristine landscapes; now it's time to see them for yourself! Tour four of eastern Canada's major cities, taking in the famous sights, landscapes, and history of each as you make your way from hotspot to hotspot. On your journey, you'll get to see places such as the 1,815-foot tall CN tower in Toronto, the Canadian Mint in Ottawa, the Place Royale in Quebec City, and Mount Royal in Montreal. The trip also includes exciting tours which showcase Canada's natural beauty, such as an unforgettable boat ride to see Niagara Falls up close! A scenic cruise through the islands of St. Lawrence Islands National Park is sure to be a highlight of the trip, as you are enchanted by the granite islands and lush pine trees towering above the river.
