Places you would go back to visit, or not, in Canada
The American site has asked this question, so why not get some responses from travellers in Canada. I will start it off. I would definitely revist most sites in the Canadian Rockies minus Banff. Also, P.E.I. in the summer, the B.C. Ferry run from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert, Victoria, and the Coast of Labrador, ( a terrible beauty!). Places I wouldn't return to include: Niagara Falls, Northern Ontario, and Regina.

It depends a bit on how far you have to travel, and where you are travelling from. Ilive in Toronto, and think Niagara Falls is worth two visits a year. But it only takes me a couple of hours to do this. Similarly, Regina's a gret place to visit if you are starting off in Swift Current. <BR>Vancouver is worth a visit a year; Yellowknife is worth one visit in your lifetime; Montreal is worth one visit every five, Quebec City every ten, a cottage on an island in Georgian Bay once a year. <BR>BAK

Gosh, I'd go back to just about anyplace in Canada except maybe Calgary and Ottawa. I love PEI, Nova Scotia, Banff, Vancouver, Toronto and Quebec City. I really enjoy Niagara Falls too. It was great to see in the summer time and the winter time - my goodness what a difference. I love staying in St Jacobs County in Ontario, the quilts are incredible, I love the stores and I love the strawberry farms and that fresh corn. <BR>What a wonderful country. <BR> <BR>Anne in Australia

Well I have returned many times to Toronto and Montreal and Quebec City and love them all. I would like to revisit Victoria and I also greatly enjoyed Ottawa and want to return. Haven't been to the Maritimes yet but want to. Also the Rockies and area are on my list. I love Canada - it is great country to visit.

I would return again and again to Montreal, Quebec City and Toronto for sure. Particularly Montreal--I lived in Montreal for 5 years and couldn't get enough of it...had to leave for my career but I felt like I was dragged away when it was time to go! Montreal and QC are magical places that I could not but help fall in love with. Toronto's fun, diverse and dynamic with amazing restaurants and cultural opportunities. I can see myself in Ottawa again as well, which despite its governmental feel, does have a tangible charm to my eyes. <BR> <BR>I don't think I'll be going back to Chicoutimi or Niagara Falls again. <BR> <BR> <BR>

As an immigrant from Europe I love the Canadian nature... I would go back to Whistler and ski or hike in the summer. Get info at www.whistler-blackcomb.com for that region. Golf at Furry Creek was very memorable! <BR>Vancouver is also one of my favorite places, I loved Granville Island and the hiking on the North Shore and Stanley Park. Great information on Vanocuver can be found at www.vancouver.com, I loved the ski ride to Grouse Mountain and the drive along Spanish Banks!

We've been in every province except Nfld, and would love to get there in the next couple of years. The only place I wouldn't go back to is the Okanagan Valley/Kelowna. It wasn't what I expected. The places I would love to go back to are Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Cape Breton, Quebec City, and Halifax. Kenora, ON is very charming as well. We live in Alberta, or I'd say the Rockies...they are my second love after the ocean.

Love Quebec City and liked Montreal.I would, however,NEVER return to the Gaspe Peinsula. people are rude and 90% of the time the place is fogged out. We were very dissapointed, drove from around boston, ma. to be treated very rudely. Unlike Quebec City, the food there(Gaspe) is lousy.

A place that I will never tire of visiting again and again is Lake O'Hara in Yoho National Park. When I am overdosed on the Middle East conflict or crime in the cities or commuting busy highways, this is the place where I chill out and remind myself that there are places of "beauty" and tranquility on this earth....
