For these two weeks, we will take you through the cities of Toronto, Kingston, Montreal, Calgary, Banff, Jasper, Kamloops and Vancouver for the trip of a lifetime filled with the pure lumberjack country delights in good food, great culture, amazing new wildlife friends, and an even more spectacular, soul-stirring views.
Arrive in Toronto, the ultra cosmopolitan city that wears the heart of Canada on its sleeve. Get acquainted with your fellow travellers and guide before heading straight to the hotel in Toronto where you will spend the night. You will have the rest of the time to catch up on rest from your long flight or take on the capital city at your own pace. Note: Departure on July 31 and Arrival on August 1 Early Morning.
Good morning; It’s your first day in the lumberjack country; grab your fill of breakfast served at the hotel and prepare yourself for dynamite of cultural fascination in Toronto. Today is a free day and we are taking this opportunity to take part in North America’s largest Carribean festival-- The Caribana (Grande Parade 2020) filled with events and festivities, costumes and dances paying homage to Carribean culture. It is not every day that you get to witness and be physically at the heart of a festival great enough to gather 1 million people every year to take lots of photographs before turning in for the day at your hotel in Toronto. Note: Grand Parade will be held on August 1.

This is a once in a lifetime view before your eyes so make sure to take a lot of pictures (and keep your cameras waterproofed) before turning in for the day back in your hotel in Toronto.
Greet your last morning in Toronto a great morning and grab yourself breakfast served at the hotel before you prepare to check out. Today will be highly eventful as you start the day by boarding 1000 Islands Cruise in Kingston highlights what seems to be a scarcity of modern architectures and more of its old charms; from here, you will also visit Ottawa en route for a brief city tour to see its most-adored city highlights, ending your journey in Montreal where you’ll immediately proceed for check-in and spend your first night.
Good morning Montreal; have a hearty breakfast served at the hotel and prepare yourself for the day’s plans which heavily focuses in the city of Montreal whose charms greatly rely on the remnants of French culture seeing that Montreal has its very own Notre-Dame Basilica.
