Two of the main areas in which tourists like to visit are Vancouver and Montreal.

Both cities also offer a great deal of entertainment. For example, in Vancouver, boat cruises are available. However, most events related to tourism in Canada are generally only open in late May through early September.
During special events, hotels book up even at the highest price range. Therefore, it is best to visit Canada outside special events such as the upcoming Olympic Games in Vancouver. However, if one is attending a special event of any kind, then it is good to make reservations well in advance of the arrival date to assure availability.
However, if one is only visiting and not attending a special event, then it is best to know the calendar of events and plan trips accordingly. Generally, visitor centers in most areas have a listing of such events available online, so that one can know before they go with regards as to how big of crowds to expect and how long such events last.
