Itinerary overview
Toronto
You'll arrive in Toronto and make your way independently to your centrally located hotel (private transfers available at a supplement on request). After checking in, the rest of the day is free to begin exploring Canada's largest city. You could stroll the vibrant waterfront, browse the shops and restaurants around the Distillery District, or take in panoramic views from the iconic CN Tower. In the evening, meet your tour director and fellow travellers ahead of tomorrow's journey. Overnight at Courtyard Toronto Downtown (or similar).
Toronto & Montréal
After breakfast, depart Toronto and travel east along the shores of Lake Ontario towards Montréal. En route, stop in the beautiful Thousand Islands region, where you can join an optional cruise through this scenic archipelago of wooded islands and waterfront homes. Continue to Montréal and settle into your hotel before enjoying the rest of the evening at leisure. Overnight at Hotel Faubourg Montréal or Hotel Le Cantlie Suites (or similar). Breakfast included.
Montréal
Today, you’ll properly get to grips with Montréal on a guided tour. From the buzz of downtown to the old-world streets of Old Montréal, the Olympic complex, Mount Royal’s leafy views, and the university quarter, you’ll see how this city wears many hats (and wears them well). You’ve got the option to dive into the Biodome, where penguins and parrots share the spotlight, or wander the Botanical Gardens, complete with themed trails and more plants than you could count in a week. You’ll stay another night in Montréal. Overnight at Hotel Faubourg Montreal or Hotel Le Cantile Suites. Breakfast included.
Québec City
You’ll leave Montréal behind and follow the scenic St Lawrence River along the Chemin du Roy, a historic route that winds through quiet villages and open farmland. The coach journey to Québec City takes around three hours, excluding stops. Once you arrive, you’ll join a walking tour through the walled old town, with its grand gates, cobbled lanes, and the vast green lawns of Battlefields Park. You’ll spend the next two nights in Québec City, the heart of French Canada. Overnight at Hotel Palace Royal or Hotel Pur. Breakfast included.
Québec City
Today’s all yours. You can spend the day wandering through the city’s historic corners, browsing its shops and bakeries, or just sipping coffee somewhere with a good view. Want to go bigger? Join the optional day trip to Tadoussac and head out on a whale-watching cruise where the Saguenay and St Lawrence Rivers meet. On the way back, you’ll stop at Montmorency Falls, which is taller than Niagara. You’ll return to Québec City in time for a relaxed evening. Overnight at Hotel Palace Royal or Hotel Pur. Breakfast included.
Ottawa
This morning, you’ll head west towards Ottawa, following the Ottawa River. The drive from Québec City to Ottawa takes around five hours, with a scenic stop at a traditional sugar shack for a maple tasting and a peek at how syrup is made the old-fashioned way. Once you reach Canada’s capital, you’ll take a guided tour of key sights, including Parliament Hill, the UNESCO-listed Rideau Canal, ByWard Market, and a mix of green spaces and historic buildings. Overnight at Sheraton Gatineau or Chateau Cartier. Breakfast included.
Toronto
You’ll make your way to Toronto today, travelling through peaceful countryside and lakeside towns. The whole journey from Ottawa to Toronto takes around four and a half hours, with a break in Rockport, where you can choose to take a boat cruise through the Thousand Islands, a jumble of wooded islets and tucked-away cottages. When you arrive in Toronto, the evening is yours. You might visit a gallery, explore a lively neighbourhood, or head up the CN Tower for a citywide view. Overnight at Courtyard Toronto Downtown. Breakfast included.
Niagara Falls
You’ll start the day with a tour of Toronto’s top sights — the provincial parliament, the waterfront, and a few of its colourful districts. In the afternoon, you’ll head out to Niagara Falls, which is about an hour and a half away by coach. You’ll pass vineyards and lakeside towns along the way. Once there, you’ll have time to explore on your own or take an optional boat ride for a dramatic, up-close view of the falls. After the visit, you’ll return to Toronto for your final night. If you're on the 7-day itinerary, your tour will end today with a drop-off at your hotel or the airport. Overnight at Courtyard Toronto Downtown. Breakfast included.
Toronto & departure
You’ll check out and make your way to the airport independently in time for your flight. Breakfast included.
