East Cities
Canada's iconic gems
-
Toronto's bright lights
This is New York's clean-cut cousin. Just 7 hours' flight time and you could be in a city with an iconic skyline, overlooking one of America's Great Lakes and with the friendliest of locals. Soar up the CN Tower before hitting the restaurants of the historic Distillery District. Drive over to Niagara Falls to view one of the natural wonders of the world, only 90 minutes away. Enjoy a harbour boat tour on Lake Ontario for iconic photos. -
Bonjour Québec
Montréal and Québec City are both in the province of Québec. The cities have a real French influence, and although you don't need to speak the language to visit, you'll love hearing it. These cities are romantic, from the centuries-old architecture to the winding cobbled streets. You won't find charm quite like this in the modern West. It's a flavour of "Old Canada", a rustic taste of history and a friendly "joie de vivre" you'll fall in love with. -
Canada's capital
There's no better way to learn about the varied and colourful history of Canada than with a city break to its capital, Ottawa. History permeates all corners of the city, like the dramatic Gothic Parliament Buildings that dominate every skyline. Take a free guided tour of the political and cultural heart of Ottawa, with a trip up the Peace Tower for the best views of the city. In downtown, you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to fascinating museums.
West Cities
From coast to country
-
Vibrant Vancouver
Vancouver might share the Pacific Northwest with trendy Seattle but it's infinitely more beautiful and welcoming than its 'sleepless' neighbour. Not many places can boast such an enviable location, nestled at the feet of the dramatic North Shore Mountains, looking out over pristine ocean with beaches reclining on every side. With a park bigger than NYC's Central Park, Vancouver is a breath of fresh air. Prepare for an active holiday with everything on offer, from skiing to shopping to sailing. -
Wild West Calgary
Calgary isn't just the Gateway to the Rockies; it's a city full of Western spirit and easily worthy of a city break. Whether you're coming from or going on a mountain adventure, say a friendly "howdy" to Calgary. It's best known for the incredible Stampede which comes to town each July and is one of the biggest and best rodeos anywhere. The rest of the year, the city embraces festivals and farmer's markets, dining and riverside bars. -
Regal Victoria
Relaxed, charming and beautiful, Victoria is a city fit for royalty. An hour and a half's scenic ferry ride from BC's mainland takes you to Vancouver Island where you'll find Victoria, the province's capital. The city is full of characterful architecture and British influence. Stroll the harbourfront under the dome of the Parliament Building. Watch the colourful floating houses bob at Fisherman's Wharf. Or head out on a whale watching tour to see the resident orca pod and migrating humpbacks.

Your Canada City Break
Canada is known for its stunning natural landscapes, but its cities are just as spectacular. A Canada city break boasts some of the biggest shopping centres in the world, from the Eaton Centre in Toronto to the West Edmonton Mall. It boasts fresh foodie scenes with a global influence that remain uniquely Canadian (try the Pacific salmon sushi in Vancouver). With some of the world’s most iconic attractions, from Toronto’s CN Tower to the Montréal biosphere, a city break in Canada rivals the best cosmopolitan centres in the world.
A Toronto city break offers all the nightlife, dining and bright lights of NYC but with the charming warmth of Canadians – and a healthy interest in hockey. Montréal rivals Paris with its rich French history, rare art and culture in bucket loads. In Canada’s West, cities like Calgary, Banff and Lake Louise have everything from authentic cowboy culture to impressive mountain scenery and stunning glacial lakes. All our city breaks come packaged with return flights and a choice of the best hotels to suit all budgets, from Fairmont to Fourseasons, Hilton to Holiday Inn. Just let us know your interests and we’ll help you tailor an excursion-packed holiday to the most vibrant centres in Canada.

Our favourite city highlights
Pick your must-see city break experience from these amazing attractions.
The CN Tower
The sky-high silhouette of the CN Tower in Toronto is one of the most iconic city skyline attractions anywhere in the world. You can get an incredible view of the city from 1,136 feet at the LookOut Level. The 360° revolving restaurant is a classic highlight. Plus, adventure lovers can strap on a harness and go outside on the EdgeWalk!
Parliament Buildings
Ottawa, Canada’s capital, is home to the impressive Parliament Buildings which dominate the city with their Gothic architecture.
Rideau Canal
Ottawa is also home to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Rideau Canal. Paddle in summer or skate on the world’s longest ice rink in winter.
Old Montréal
The oldest area of Montréal has stunning French architecture and heritage, with sights like the Place d’Armes and the Notre Dame Basilica.
Old Québec
The most historic neighbourhood of Québec City is a UNESCO World Heritage treasure.
Stanley Park
This stunning park in Vancouver is bigger than New York’s Central Park. It is filled with things to do, with a string of beaches, lakes and swimming pools. The 5-mile long seawall is a scenic haven for joggers, cyclists and even horse-drawn carriages. The park is home to a stellar aquarium, totem pole art and restaurants to dine in the woodland.
