About Sightseeing

Canada is the second-largest country in the world, with vast and varying terrain, diverse flora and fauna, historical and modern architecture, and a celebration of art, food, music, and traditions from cultures all over the world. With such a bounty, there is no end to the sights you can see on a Canadian tour.

Cruise the Waters

Whether you’re speeding down the river, meandering through an ocean inlet, or cruising across a mountain lake, getting out on the water provides a unique perspective of the world around you. Try out a bubble cruise, where you sip on your favorite drink, lean back, and take in the views. Or for an even more luxurious experience, a dinner cruise provides fine dining at sunset.

Take to the Skies

Get a bird’s eye view of the world you’re used to seeing from the ground up. Heli tours, trams and gondolas, hot air balloons, and small airplanes all offer flightseeing opportunities that you’ll never forget. The relaxing and soothing glide of a gondola provides a meditative moment, while climbing into a chopper or biplane will have you feeling like a rockstar before you even leave the ground.

Cover More Ground

Settle back in a luxury motor coach, doubledecker bus, or SUV and let someone else do the driving, so you can fully appreciate the wonders around you! A vehicle tour helps you go further, see more, and maximize your relaxation time on your adventure. Drivers will be able to share interesting facts, tourist tips, and many a joke to enhance your experience.

ADVENTURE

Spy With Your Little Eye
