A trip to Canada is sure to be filled with unique and unforgettable sights and experiences.
Every year, millions of people head to Canada to see Niagara Falls. In fact, according to the Niagara Falls website, over eight million tourists visit the site each year to soak up its beauty.
Canada is a very large country, the second largest in the world after Russia. To see all of Canada's top attractions in one trip would require a long vacation with multiple travel days built in. Instead, it's more practical to choose a few destinations that are close to each other and focus your trip there.
