Discover Canada
Natural beauty, vast tracts of untouched land, enchanting historic villages, and vibrant modern cities— the second-biggest country in the world covers a lot of ground. VBT’s bike tours in Canada are the best way to experience the wonders that our neighbor to the north has to offer.
From the European charm of Old Montreal, with its cobbled streets and cozy cafés to hip, trendy Vancouver and its bustling Asian night markets, Canada’s cities are delightfully different and endlessly enriching. Venture into the country’s smaller towns to discover quaint fishing villages in Nova Scotia, mountain towns inhabited by outdoor enthusiasts in the Rockies, and artists’ communities in rural Québec.
Further out into the Canadian wilds, you’ll find stunningly beautiful landscapes. Rugged coastlines in Newfoundland, soaring peaks and crystalline lakes in the Rockies, lush temperate rainforests along the Pacific coast, and arctic tundras in the north—this vast country really does have it all.
Canada boasts world-class museums and galleries in its urban centers, lively folk music traditions in its maritime villages, internationally acclaimed film festivals and music festivals of every genre, and countless other cultural attractions. Sample poutine in Québec or have a gourmet meal in Toronto, and don’t forget to take in a hockey game to fully round out your Canadian experience.
Country Highlights
- View the spectacular Victoria Glacier and the emerald waters of Lake Louise.
- Follow the breathtakingly scenic Pacific Marine Circle Route.
- Revel in the untouched beauty of Banff National Park.
- Savor authentic farm-to-fork West Coast cuisine.
Wildlife
This vast country is home to some seriously big animals. Polar bears, grizzly bears, whales, bighorn sheep, and the iconic moose all roam the wilds of Canada. While most of these giant creatures are rarely seen, you might get lucky and spot one if you venture out of heavily trafficked areas.
The Canadian Rockies
This massive mountain range stretches 900 miles from the Montana border. By mountain standards, these beauties are relatively young. They started to form around 80 million years ago and have not yet been smoothed out by the passing of time. Their craggy silhouettes are stunning when juxtaposed with the glassy glacial lakes dotted throughout the area.
Maple Syrup
Canada produces 71% of the world’s pure maple syrup. From small family farms to bigger operations, Canadians have been tapping maple trees for their sweet sap for generations. It takes about 40 gallons of sap to produce one gallon of maple syrup. You’ll appreciate all that hard work when you sample treats like maple candy and maple pie on your tour!

This was an amazingly beautiful ride with stunning mountains, lakes, waterfalls and guides. The food was exceptional incuding the picnics the guides prepared for us. I ride alone and feel completely comfortable and well taken care of (if needed).
