Canada Travel

Luxury travel blog » Places to Travel » North America Travel » Canada Travel

Canada has a lot to offer a visitor, and here are some fun reasons why. For more Canada travel articles scroll down.

Why is Canada a great travel destination?

1) Canada is Big

Canada is big. It’s 10 million square kilometres big. If you include water, Canada is the 2nd biggest country in the world. If you don’t include water, you will be thirsty.

2) You Will Never Be Thirsty in Canada

Canada has small lakes, Great Lakes, the Atlantic Coast to the East, the Pacific Coast to the West and let’s not forget magnificent Hudson Bay. You probably know all this.

Did you know, however, that if you head up north, and I mean waaaay up north, you’ve got your Beaufort Sea, your Labrador Sea and a whole lot of ice and glaciers – that adds up to a whole lot of exciting Canada travel.

3) Canada Is Not As Cold As You Think

Okay, sometimes it’s bloody freezing. And that means snow. In the summer it can be hot and muggy in Toronto, dry and sunny in the prairies, and everything in between.

4) Canada Has Time Travel

Canada has six major time zones. I mean, this is exciting. It’s almost warped-speed-space exciting. If you flew around the country really fast crossing all kinds of time zones in a strategic manner you could probably even get younger.

5) Canada Has Mountains

The Rocky Mountains is one of the best destinations in the world. You can ski, soak in hot springs, stay in lavish hotels and dine on locally-produced fine cuisine. Try doing that in Italy.

What? You can do that in Italy? And France? And Switzerland? And … okay, I ask you this. How many TIMES ZONES do those countries have? Has anyone ever grown younger in Italy, other than at a Tuscan spa?
