The best of both worlds

Canada and the United States combined

Close your eyes and picture your dream journey to Canada and the United States. Are you swimming in the turquoise, glacier-fed Lake Louise? Are you hiking in the Rocky Mountains that stretch across the border? Are you on a road trip through the Southwest United States before taking a ferry to Vancouver Island? If you’re looking to visit both countries, the possibilities are limitless!

Travel like a local

Canada and the United States are friendly neighbours that share a long border, so travel between the two is very easy. Short drives and mapped-out routes will make sure you reach all your bucket-list items, while still travelling at a relaxed pace that allows you to appreciate your environment. The surrounding nature provides the perfect backdrop to learn new things about the world, and yourself in turn. Stay in small-scale accommodations with local hosts that offer the perfect blend of genuine hospitality, and participate in authentic local experiences that other tourists don't know about.

5 reasons to visit both countries

  • Geographical proximity: the travel distance between Canada and the United States is very manageable because they share a border. You can easily travel between the two countries by car, or by plane if you prefer. And did you know that 90% of the Canadian population lives within 100 kilometres of the United States border?
  • Outdoor recreation: there's no shortage of adventure activities to enjoy in both countries. Whether it's going on a guided hike in the Rocky Mountains, spotting bison in Yellowstone National Park, or an Indigenous-led tour on horseback, your choices are endless.
  • Wildlife encounters: Canada and the United States have different climates and therefore different wildlife. Canada is renowned for moose, bears and whales, while the United States is known for bison, eagles and sea lions. Visiting both will offer you an enormous diversity of flora and fauna.
  • Indigenous heritage: both the United States and Canada have diverse and vastly different Indigenous populations. By taking a holiday to both, you will learn about these very different and fascinating cultures, and their lasting heritage.
  • Diverse landscapes: the nature in both countries differ greatly. In some parts of the United States, you will find vast deserts, whereas Canada has worlds of glaciers and ice. With a combined trip, you can experience each country's beautiful natural phenomena.

When is the best time to visit?

Canada and the United States are both beautifully diverse countries that are great for travel at any time of the year. Every season offers a new adventure, and each region has a unique personality of its own. Spring brings raging waterfalls as the landscape becomes green once more. Summer is an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. You'll never see brighter crimson leaves than in autumn, and there are ample winter activities for snow lovers.

The best time to travel is generally in the ‘shoulder seasons’, from April to June and September to November. Based on your specific interests, we can advise you on the best time to travel and the best regions to visit. And then we will plan your route with you from there.
