A tapestry of fascinating history, rich culture and heritage, natural wonders and soaring cities, Eastern Canada is a stark contrast to its more famous west coast neighbour. Being so different in almost every aspect, it is necessary to experience this picturesque land to really get to know all of Canada. Montréal is an eclectic mix of old and new while Québec City oozes history and tradition. Visit a sugar shack in the Québec countryside where you’ll learn about all kinds of maple products. Stand in awe as you watch the immense Niagara Falls thunder down a cliffside spraying a fine mist of water into the air.
