Eastern Canada comprises the central provinces of Ontario & Quebec together with the Atlantic provinces of Newfoundland, Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island and it’s relative closeness to Europe has endowed it with a rich cultural history handed down from the French, Scottish and English immigrants who settled this vast land.
Toronto and its suburbs and satellites are the thriving centre of much of the business and manufacturing activities in Eastern Canada and, with its closeness to Niagara Falls is a must see destination while close by Ottawa and its fine parliamentary and public buildings are also a popular.
No visit to Eastern Canada would be complete without exploring the St Lawrence river valley and the cities of Quebec and Montreal the latter the 2nd largest French speaking city in the world. Take the historical tours, visit the museums, admire the architecture, wine and dine and thus discover the vibrant French inspired culture of these remarkable cities.
At the mouth of the mighty St Lawrence lies the Arcadian region of the Atlantic provinces with its mix of French, native and Scottish inhabitants with their own distinctive cultures alive among their traditional farming and fishing communities.
The Maritime provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland offer truly majestic coastal scenery of rugged cliffs, vast unspoilt sandy beaches and there whales and huge icebergs are often seen. Here also are many national parks and nature preserves such as Parc de la Gaspesie, Cape Breton, the Cabot Trail offering breathtaking views and unrivalled opportunities for wild life viewing.
