Canada Honeymoon

Canada's beautiful through and through, but on the striking West Coast you can see the gorgeous city of Vancouver along the Pacific as well as the trendy municipality of Whistler under 2 hours northeast.

After flying to Calgary, it’s a scenic 1.5-hour drive to Banff. The town is set in Banff National Park, which boasts impressive natural beauty, the stunning turquoise waters of Lake Louise, and its nearby lesser-known counterpart, Moraine Lake.

The rich history of Halifax is showcased in its Citadel National Historic Site and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. The oh-so-scenic coastline just outside Halifax offers up gems such as Crystal Crescent Beach and the landmark lighthouse at Peggy’s Cove.

Set along the St. Lawerence River, 1600s-era Quebec City offers quaint cobblestone streets of Quartier Petit Champlain, and the landmark Fairmont Château Frontenac hotel. It's 14km from majestic Montmorency Falls.

Set on Lake Ontario, Toronto is popular with honeymooners. Spend your days wandering the Royal Ontario Museum or Toronto Island. The Canadian side of Niagara Falls offers great views of Horseshoe Falls, plus the chance take a boat ride with Hornblower Niagara Cruises.

Canada is a true paradise for outdoor lovers. You’ll find exceptional skiing at Whistler Blackcomb, Lake Louise Ski Resort, or Sunshine Village in Banff. The winter months bring ice skating and snowmobiling, while summer is perfect for boating and hiking. In spring and fall, you can go humpback whale watching.

For an especially memorable honeymoon, take a scenic rail tour from Vancouver to Lake Louise and Banff onboard the Rocky Mountaineer luxury train. VIA Rail offers a cross-Canada train service starting in Vancouver and ending in Halifax.

In Canada, the sky's the limit for panoramic vistas: bring you camera and capture the cityscapes from atop the 482-foot Vancouver Lookout, 626-foot Calgary Tower, or 1,815-foot CN Tower in Toronto. To get further into the wild, spot the amazing flora and fauna in Banff, or see the west coast rainforest by visiting the Capilano Suspension Bridge in Vancouver.

Classic Canadian cuisine you should try includes mouthwatering Alberta beef and fresh seafood from the coastal provinces. Québec favorites including delicious maple syrup, poutine, and Montreal smoked meat sandwiches.

If you’re a sports fan, catch the Toronto Blue Jays, Toronto Raptors, or one of seven Canadian NHL teams playing in various cities across Canada, including Vancouver and Montreal.
