It’s a diverse country with many great places to go and things to do. If you’re thinking about taking a trip to Canada, these are some of the highlights that you should try to hit while you’re out there.
Niagara Falls
No list of amazing Canadian destinations would be complete without Niagara Falls. It’s one of the world’s most iconic and recognizable natural features, and it’s even more spectacular when you see it for real.
The awe-inspiring waterfall is like nothing that you’ve ever seen before and it’s going to be the highlight of your trip, but a lot of people don’t realize that there is more to do in the surrounding area.
If you’re feeling lucky, you can visit the local casino resort or if you’re not the gambling type, you should head over to Marineland instead.
It’s a great amusement park and aquarium with loads of great rollercoasters and marine life, with plenty of shows to see as well.
Castle Hill National Historic Site

A lot of people instantly think of skiing when they think of Canada. If that’s you and you’re looking to hit the slopes during your visit, Whistler is the best place.
This great resort in British Columbia is one of the biggest in the whole of North America where you can ski, toboggan or even jump on a snowmobile.
