Canada Tours and Travel-Luxury MotorCoach
Posted by netrafic under Travel, UncategorizedNo Comments
Canada is such a vast nation that most people just fly from point to point and can never truly understand the soul and the spirit of this great land. Motor coach tours are the best way to truly experience Canada travel destinations and revel in the grandeur of this continent-straddling majestic land which borders on three oceans.
To relive the history of this country, you should start from the far eastern coasts, the misty harbors of St. John’s, Newfoundland, home to hardy, crusty people who live from the sea and still speak a version of 17th century English. Your romantic ferry ride takes you to Cape Breton, a chunk of the Scottish countryside dropped into the gray and moody Atlantic.
Then proceed onto Halifax, the metropolitan harbour town which is Canada’s Boston. The phenomenal highway wends its way inland through the rolling verdant hills of New Brunswick and across the continent-cleaving St. Lawrence River, where you may see albino-white beluga whales play. Your next stop is Quebec City, which represents the greatest culture shock you can experience in North America: An ancient Burgundian French city where the narrow streets pass grand cathedrals of stone and tiny bistros.
Quebec is a completely French city and you might want to brush up on your bonjour’s and adieus, as you will need them. The spectacular highway continues along the great river to the huge metropolis of Montreal, still French but with a 21st century flair. A city that never sleeps and parties with true joie de vivre. Onto astounding Toronto, a half-scale lakefront Manhattan which you can enjoy from the top of the world’s tallest freestanding tower.
North to the stunning, isolated wilderness of Lake Superior where bears and moose frolic along the roadsides as you speed by. As you pass the greatest of the Great Lakes the scenery flattens out onto the great prairie, a sea of wheat under infinite skies that will be your companion for the next 1,200 miles.

Just as the snow caps of the Rockies come to view on the horizon, the booming oil metropolis of Calgary awaits to entertain you. Home to the world’s biggest rodeo and as many oil millionaires as Dallas, this is one cowtown that can really show you a good time. You ascend the heavenly mountains to Banff, a world-class winter sports destination among the finest on Earth, then wind your way through hundreds of miles of completely indescribable verdant snowy mountain magnificence and even some Nevada-desert valleys, to the city continually voted the World’s Most Livable, the staggering Vancouver jutting out into the indigo Georgia Strait on a backdrop of snowcaps.
Your last ferry ride takes you directly on a downtown Victoria sightseeing tour, after a life-changing 5,000 mile and six time zone journey, where you can ride a double decker bus and swear you’re on the English Seacoast. Canada is not just a destination. It is a journey. Experience it all by Motor Coach.
