5 Reasons Why We’ve Been Bitten By The Canada Travel Bug

To celebrate Prestige Holiday’s recent win at the esteemed British Annual Canada Travel Awards, I am going to give you five reasons why you should plan a holiday in Canadastraight away!

Whether you are organising a luxury vacation, a busy city break or a wild adventure holiday, in Canadathere is something for every type of traveller.

Why Visit Canada?

Here is my list of reasons to visit this beautiful North American country. Remember, this list does not cover all Canada has to offer, so be inspired to do your own research to get your next get away going.

1.    Diversity

Canada is known for the diversity of its lands. You could take six months to travel around the vast country and still have much left to discover. This makes it a great destination for family and group trips as there is something for everyone to enjoy.

2.    Natural Beauty

If you love nothing more than a breathtaking view, then this is the country for you! Get your boots on and head for the Rockies to indulge in the amazing hiking opportunities in this region. Spend the evening relaxing next to the turquoise waters of the beautiful lakes beneath the towering, snow-capped peaks. The Rockies are great for mountain biking and camping as well as hikes.

3.    Wildlife

When I say wildlife, I mean wild! You can watch grizzly bears fishing for salmon in their natural habitat or take to the waves and seek out thriller killer whales. If you don’t mind the cold, head to the desolate, artic tundra and marvel at the awe-inspiring sight of a huge polar bear.

4.    The Northern Lights

Anyone who has been lucky enough to see the Northern Lights with their own eyes knows that the flood of colour which illuminates the night sky is truly jaw-dropping and may just bring a tear to your eye. The Yukon is the best place to see these miracles of nature and form memories that will last for a lifetime.

5.    Cultural Centres and Cool Cities

The ‘neighbour to the north’ has plenty to offer those who prefer the hustle and bustle of a city to the peaceful calm of an isolated tent. There are plenty of modern cities full of life, music, gourmet food and drink and innovation. For culture-lovers, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Old Québec is a must.

Safety First

As with every trip you take abroad, safety is important. Remember to let friends and family know where you are planning to travel and provide someone you trust with a copy of your itinerary and the contact details you’ll be using when you’re gone. This way you are easily contactable in case of emergency.

It is also key to pick a travel company you trust to help you plan your holiday in Canada. This means that you won’t get fobbed off with dodgy hotels or unreliable travel options. Prestige Holidays Canada team were recently awarded a BACTA naming them the Best UK Tour Operator of 2018! Picking a travel operator that prides itself on its excellent reputation means you can travel with peace of mind.

Have I inspired you to embark on a life-changing holiday in Canada? If so, happy travels!
