Canada Summer Holidays

Where you stay in summer shapes what type of trip you want to have.

In the Canadian Rockies, well-positioned lodges allow early access to trails and quieter moments before peak daytime visitors arrive.

In British Columbia, coastal cities such as Vancouver provide a base for both urban exploration and nearby outdoor experiences.

For eastern Canada, Québec and Ontario combine city stays with time in the surrounding countryside and lakeside retreats.

Further east, Atlantic Canada offers smaller guesthouses and coastal stays that place you closer to local communities and shoreline routes.

With our summer holidays to Canada, we select accommodation based on location first, ensuring your time is spent experiencing each place rather than travelling through it.

Summer opens up the full range of experience across Canada, allowing you to create a trip that feels active, varied and personal.

In the Canadian Rockies, hiking in Waterton Lakes National Park offers a quieter alternative to busier areas, with trails leading to alpine lakes and wildflower-filled scenery. Moderate hikes of 4-8 hours suit a wide range of travellers and can be easily combined with a broader Alberta itinerary.

On the east coast, cycling the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia provides a different pace. Coastal roads, highland scenery and small communities create a route that combines physical activity with cultural insight, supported by flexible daily distances and local guidance.

Wildlife experiences are strongest in summer. In British Columbia, explore coastal waterways where you can spot dolphins, whales, sea lions, black bears and, later in the season, grizzly bears feeding on salmon runs. Further north, the Yukon offers a more remote adventure, combining wilderness exploration with insight into local history and Indigenous culture.

Each of these experiences can be adjusted and combined. Speak to our team if you’d like a customised itinerary.
