F & I excellence , you can combine business with once-in-a-lifetime experiences . That said , flights are also available from or near other F & I hubs , such as Calgary .
If you ’ re interested in sending your top performers to this remote region , why not give them a chance to witness the magic of the northern lights ? A three-hour flight from Ottawa to Iqaluit allows visitors access to a region that is commonly known for the aurora borealis . When in Iqaluit , you can head into the elements with a hike along the stunning Sylvia Grinnell River . For those looking for a less rugged experience , glamp in a cosy tent , where you can drink a warm refreshment and wait for the magnificent dancing lights to appear .
If you ’ re looking for more adventure elsewhere , viewing marine wildlife is another exceptional experience in Canada , particularly along Canada ’ s seaboard . There are many pre- and post-conference opportunities to learn more about Canadian sea life , and there is plenty to experience while exploring the country ' s 240,000 kilometres of coastline . Boat trips off the coast of Vancouver give visitors a chance to witness local orca and humpback whales . Canada is a country of numerous inland lakes , with perhaps none so sought after by visitors as Lake Louise in Alberta . Delegates can blow away their conference cobwebs by following one of the many trails that surround the glistening glacial waters , or by floating on the lake ’ s emerald surface in a canoe . Heading out on the water provides a whole new perspective and is a memory that guests will cherish . This unforgettable landscape lies a short two-a hour drive from Calgary .
