Canada
For a country that does size, distances and vastness so well (it is the 2nd largest country in the world after all), it’s actually in the details and the local events and pastimes that Canada equally excels.
While the beauty and breadth of the snow-capped Rockies, the amazing power of Niagara Falls and coming across the ‘sizeable’ wildlife (think Grizzly Bears & Moose) are the quintessential Canadian experiences, you can have an equally ‘Canuck’ experience with the stampedes, local music/culture festivals and microbrewery scene that pervade the whole country.
If you’re looking for adventure, Canada has it in spades, with cosmopolitan Vancouver giving you the ability to ski in the morning and swim in the ocean or hike after lunch…all as a warm up to the epic slopes of the mountains, with Whistler the most famous drawcard amongst many. Add in the French sophistication of Montreal & Quebec, the beautiful lakes region, astonishingly remote northern landscapes and the most welcomingly hospitable people, and you’re in for a wonderful holiday.
