Canada travel

A journey through Eastern Canada will delight those who appreciate authenticity and nature. Discover festive Montréal, the charming citadel of Québec and its cobbled streets, Île d’Orléans, the Saguenay Fjord and its spectacular views. Animal lovers will encounter whales and belugas on a cruise through the waters of the St. Lawrence in Tadoussac, and may observe bears and beavers along a trail in Mauricie. The journey in Canada will continue in Gaspesia, a somewhat remote peninsula to discover, so dear to the hearts of Québécois. Keen to see even more? Let yourself be charmed by Ontario’s lakes and rivers, its famous Niagara Falls, Algonquin Park, and Gananoque and the 1000 Islands.

New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island make up the remarkable Maritime Provinces. The Mi’kmaq and Maliseet were the first to inhabit these peninsulas and islands, shaped by cliffs and wild coastlines that are sure to delight kayaking and hiking enthusiasts. The turbulent history of these regions gives them a unique character: they are both proud and discreet, and always straddling two waters. A thousand and one facets to discover during a journey through Maritime Canada. Further on, none other than Newfoundland. Inevitably evoking the harsh lives of 19th-century cod fishermen and the rescue dogs with their plush-like appearance, the large Canadian island at the mouth of the St. Lawrence River boasts a unique and complex identity. Your trip to Newfoundland will take you through a rugged environment, with jagged coastlines, windswept moors, deep boreal forests and impressive glacial valleys.

A journey through Western Canada is a fabulous discovery for any lover of nature and the great outdoors. Set off to discover Alberta, with its national parks such as Banff and Jasper nestled in the heart of the Rockies, its impressive landscapes and the brilliant blue of Lake Louise. Also discover British Columbia for its maritime coastline, Vancouver, the Pearl of the Pacific – one of the most pleasant cities to live in on the continent. And Vancouver Island, a haven for wildlife such as orcas, whales and sea lions, to be observed by boat on departure from Tofino or by seaplane. And for a journey beyond time, climb aboard the Rocky Mountaineer, a legendary panoramic train that allows you to appreciate the magnificent landscapes in a novel way, without hurrying.

Vast uninhabited valleys, snow-capped peaks, taiga and deep forests home to exceptional wildlife, this is how the Canadian territory of Yukon appears, located on the eastern border of Alaska, north-west of British Columbia. Planning a trip to the Yukon means setting out to discover almost deserted lands – these pristine expanses are home to more grizzly bears than people: barely 30,000 people live in this territory the size of Sweden, with 24,000 residing in the city of Whitehorse. Your journey through the Yukon will allow you to follow scenic routes that cross these wild landscapes, hike the slopes of the roof of Canada, Mount Logan, admire caribou, moose, bears, wolves and mouflon sheep, and discover the region’s history, closely tied to the Gold Rush.
