I had a fantastic time on CTV Ottawa Morning recently chatting about how Canadians don’t need to leave the country to have world-class travel experiences. From icy adventures to urban luxury, our own backyard is full of unforgettable escapes.


❄️ Cruise Your Way Across Canada

Whether you’re after rugged expedition vibes or scenic river cruising, there’s something for every type of explorer:

🚒 Ponant – Le Commandant Charcot
This remarkable polar‑style ship blends luxury with adventure β€” think dog sledding, ice fishing, champagne in the Arctic, and offshore exploration that feels like a once‑in‑a‑lifetime experience without leaving Canada.

🚒 Windstar Cruises – St. Lawrence Itineraries
Small‑ship elegance meets vibrant scenery. From coastal towns to fall foliage framing the Saint Lawrence, these cruises are perfect for travellers who want comfort and discovery.

🚒 Adventure Canada
True Canadian exploration! Their voyages include journeys around Newfoundland, cultural immersion, and even expeditions to Sable Island to see wild horses in their natural environment.

🏨 Staycations That Feel Like a World Tour

Not ready to cruise? Discover luxury closer to home with iconic Canadian hotels that deliver incredible service, history, and ambiance:

🏨 Fairmont ChΓ’teau Laurier β€” Ottawa
