The red leaf flag of Canada takes on new meaning in autumn, when maples across the eastern provinces go ablaze with color, and swaths of scarlet, gold, violet, and fluorescent orange accent the backdrops of cities like Montreal (“Paris without the jet lag”)... Old Quebec, the European citadel beside the Saint Lawrence... Toronto with its nonstop arts scene and international culinary culture... and fire up the rush of Niagara Falls and the pastoral beauty of the Thousand Islands. But a little further to the west and north, at Manitoba’s frosty northeast corner, there’s yet another spectacular fall show taking place, with a limited run in October and November... the polar bears are on the move across the tundra at Hudson Bay. It all makes you wonder if there’s any better time to explore this northern land of natural and man-made wonders than when Nature spins the color wheel.


CANADA, EAST AND


Canada’s Capital Cities plus Niagara Falls


The great cities of eastern Canada are full to bursting with Old World charm, avant-garde sophistication and unexpected delights of every kind, from cultural and culinary to historic and horticultural, in the autumn months. The hip diversity of cosmopolitan, multicultural Toronto, only steps from The Fairmont Royal York, is as exciting as the view from the CN Tower. European-style canals, stately


Belle Èpoque architecture and a guided visit to Canada’s Parliament and House of Commons await you in Ottawa, where you’ll stay at the historic Renaissance-style Fairmont Château Laurier. Montreal’s vibrant cultural mix is in easy reach of the Hilton Montreal Bonaventure, located in the heart of downtown. Romantic Quebec City’s Old World grandeur is even grander in fall colors, like the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac towering above the Saint Lawrence. There’s also the fiery foliage of the Laurentians and the Thousand Islands... the torrential majesty of the falls at Montmorency and Niagara... the bountiful harvest, and the smell of wood smoke in the crisp air of the Quebec countryside... it’s a great time to be here with Tauck!
