More About Canada

Overview

Home to some of the hippest urban cities and acres of gorgeous landscape, Canada is awe-inspiring in so many ways. For a nice blend of urban and nature, head west to Vancouver set along the water, this city's laid-back vibe is a great way to start off your vacation. Less than two hours away you can be hitting the slopes of Whistler/Blackcomb, one of the largest ski resorts in North America. Whistler is equally amazing in the summer as it is in the winter. Or head east to Montreal which is the second-largest city and one of the largest cultural hubs. Being at the confluence of the French and English traditions, Montreal has developed a unique and distinguished cultural face, Montreal is home to many festivals. No matter the season, Canada has so much to offer.

General Safety Tips: By taking a few simple security precautions before and during your vacation, you can help ensure that you, your traveling companions, and your valuables are as safe and secure as possible.
  • To make it easier to replace your passport if it’s lost or stolen, in addition to your passport, take a photocopy of your passport information page (keeping it separate from your actual passport).
  • Carry only a limited amount of cash, just enough for gratuities and incidental purchases. Major credit cards are widely accepted and can be replaced if lost or stolen.
  • Always lock your hotel room door (including patio and balcony door on any level of the building) and use the peephole before opening the door.
  • Store your valuables (such as cash, credit cards and airline tickets) in the hotel’s in-room safe or front desk safety deposit box.
  • If you must carry valuables on your person, do so in a pouch or money belt concealed under your clothing. Purses and backpacks can be easy targets for thieves.
  • For complete and current safety and security information, including travelers' tips, public announcements, travel advisories and more, please visit the Government of Canada official website at https://travel.gc.ca.
