Visitors can experience the falls from a boat tour or explore scenic hiking trails.
Niagara Falls is so much of a tourist destination that it almost feels kitschy, but the falls themselves are incredible.
Joffre Lakes Provincial Park in British Columbia offers breathtaking views of ice-capped peaks and three turquoise, glacier-fed lakes. Dalila Sverdlov, another Fora Travel advisor, suggests hiking the Joffre Lakes trail to the summit for the best vistas. The park transforms into a winter wonderland during colder months, ideal for skiing and snowshoeing.
Hike the Joffre Lakes trail and make sure to hike to the top so you don't miss the beauty of all three lakes.
For those seeking off-the-beaten-path adventures and wildlife viewing, Clayoquot Sound in British Columbia, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, is recommended. Renshaw suggests a marine wildlife safari to spot orcas, gray whales, sea otters, and black bears. Luxury glamping at Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge provides a base for unique activities like helicopter-assisted fly-fishing and canyoning. Quebec City offers a taste of France in North America, completing the list of must-visit destinations.
