Best places to visit in Canada

Canada has 10 provinces and three territories, spread over a huge area. Indeed, it's the second largest country in the world after Russia. Canada, is also about water, lots of water, the country has approximately 60% of the world's lakes... You will understand that Canada has a lot to offer and it might be difficult to make a choice. Follow the advice of seasoned Evaneos travellers to make it clearer!

In the East, its capital, Ottawa, has a financial centre to rival American towns and lies between Montreal and Niagara Falls. In this region, Quebeckerswill welcome you with their warm accent helping you to discover the wonderful secrets that Canada's incredible natural environment contains. You will venture to Tadoussac or Gaspé to hope to see the rulers of the sea: whales and killer whales are found in the region during part of the year.

Then going westward: if you are a ski lover, the Whistler ski pistes are renowned for being the most expensive in the world, due to their proximity to the sea. But the region's must-see is Vancouver, one of the world's cities with the best quality of life. This place has a pleasant climate, clear Asian influences, and the nearby Victoria Island offers you sublime local wildlife.

Closer to the centre of the country, near Calgary, the Banff National Park with its incredibly blue lake is a paradise for lovers of peace and large spaces, who will without doubt find happiness throughout this country.

Mont-Sainte-Anne, Quebec's second highest ski resort, is near to the village of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré - a skiing paradise at less than 45 minutes from Quebec.
Nanaimo is the second largest city on Vancouver Island and offers a less out-of-the-way (and more urban) alternative to Tofino for fans of nautical activities!

Sacré-Cœur is a village of around 2,000 inhabitants located 15 minutes from Tadoussac and close to Saguenay Fjord National Park.
This village in Mauricie, Quebec is an ideal destination for fishing and snowmobile fans. It's proof that taking a trip to Quebec is enjoyable both during winter and summertime.

Saint-Michel-des-Saints is one of the nice holiday spots not far from Montreal.
Prince George is a city in British Columbia that is famous for its logging industry. It was also ranked as the "most dangerous city in Canada" in 2011 and 2012.
