A GLIMPSE OF THE SIGNATURE
EXPERIENCES THAT AWAIT
Smoke billows from a quaint log cabin and as you
breathe in the warm sugary air your mind swirls with
the image of one thing – maple syrup. A call upon
a traditional sugar shack illuminates this much-loved
condiment, as you learn how it is produced, enjoy a
bountiful Québécois meal along with live entertainment.
As you dine on the brink of Niagara Falls you'll
no doubt be captivated by the glow of spotlights
illuminating the raging white waters in a kaleidoscope
of colours. After dinner, you'll be invited on an
exclusive visit to the source of those lights, the
Illumination Tower, where you can take the reigns
and project your own light display.
To really appreciate the sheer size of Niagara Falls,
sweep over the great expanse on a scenic helicopter
flight. From a bird's-eye perspective, you'll get an
utterly jaw-dropping view of the entire area.
This idyllic pocket of Canada not only teems with
cultural cities, it is awash in lyrical scenery from
seascapes to deep forests. The country's second-
oldest European settlement, Québec City bursts
with history and Montréal presents a maze of
cobbled streets. While the pretty mountain village
of Mont Tremblant could be mistaken for the French
Alps. By the shores of Lake Ontario, the modern
metropolis of Toronto is a delightfully multicultural
city that presents a true cultural patchwork. Ottawa,
meanwhile, is a proud and attractive national capital.
Then there's Niagara Falls, straddling the border
of Canada and the USA. Best of all, this is a land
that transforms with every season, from lush green,
carpeted with pretty flowers to the rich colours
of autumn that garnish the region in vibrant colour.
