Explore Canada

When God was feeling particularly artistic, He created Canada. Nothing else would explain the wow inspiring landscape that dots Canada at every turn and corner. Spiky mountains, glinting glaciers, spectral rainforests, wheat-waving prairies, sunny weather, crisp snow, mystical northern lights, bounty of wildlife and beautiful, vibrant cities – all combine to make Canada a traveller’s paradise. And with Pacific, Arctic and Atlantic Oceans surrounding it from 3 sides, Canada’s beaches are a cherry on the topping!

Best Time to Visit

Canada can be visited any time of the year though most of the tourists find Canada in summers pleasant to visit. This is the season when the climate is agreeable and the majority of the action moves outside.

But summer varies from region to region. In southern Canada, it generally refers to the period between Victoria day (late May) and Labour day (early September). In the northern regions, however, summer starts as late as mid-June and ends, often abruptly, with the first snowfall in early to mid-September.

The shoulder months of March to May and September to October bring fewer tourists and often surprisingly pleasant weather. Fall is another great time to visit when the forests are cloaked in a spectacular mantle of colour.
