Canada Tours & Holidays

Newmarket Holidays welcomes solo travellers on all our group tours. In fact, many of our customers choose to join our tours on their own. And the best part is: you won’t really be alone. With a group of like-minded travellers and a friendly, informative tour manager (as well as incredible locals all over the world!), you will love your holiday experience. Joining a tour as a solo traveller is also a guaranteed way to feel safe and confident when travelling alone. While you can join any of our regular tours on your own, we also have a range of tours designed exclusively for solo travellers.

Canada is known for its unspoilt natural environment, winter sports and liveable cities. The nation is enriched with vast mountain ranges, forests, and lakes - approximately 60% of the world's lakes are located in Canada. The country also has some of the cleanest air in the world, ranked highly for its low pollution levels.

Its cold climate makes Canada the ultimate winter sports destination, with hockey being a much-loved national sport. Canada is also home to the most scenic and popular skiing destinations in the world.

The country is also widely known for the liveability of its cities. In 2019, Canadian cities Calgary, Vancouver and Toronto featured in the top 10 most liveable cities in the world.

Canada is a country with four seasons. From winter through to summer, the country’s stunning natural landscapes change to reflect the seasons. As such, autumn - September to November - is a beautiful time to visit Canada and experience the vibrant change in colours and scenery. During this time, the weather isn’t too chilly and the summer crowds have dropped off.

British Citizens don’t typically require a visa to visit Canada for short trips, but you’ll still need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) before your holiday. These only cost $7 CAD and can be applied for online.
