Eastern Canada with Premier Holidays
Many combinations are possible, depending on your time, interests and budget. Here’ s just a few ideas:-
Touring options: To truly experience all Eastern Canada has to shout about, a tour is highly recommended. Cast your eyes over our fabulous self-drives and an escorted tour on pages 53-55.
City stays: Being a relatively short flight from the UK, an Eastern Canada city break is hard to beat. Our Highlights tours for Toronto, Ottawa, Montréal and Québec City showcase just what you can fit into a few days. See pages 57, 61, 65 and 67.
Independent touring: Of course not everyone wants to follow a set route, so let our Travel Experts choose from an array of hotels across the region to create a bespoke itinerary just for you. You’ re not limited to touring by car, as we can offer motorhomes and rail travel too.
Mix & match: Why confine yourself to Eastern Canada, when the neighbouring Atlantic provinces are on the doorstep. Or, fantastic flight and rail networks across Canada make it easy to combine east with west.
