Planning a trip to Canada
Pulled from the 2 routes below — so it says what these itineraries actually do, not what a brochure would.
When to go
Jun–Oct — the months these routes agree on.
How long you need
7–8 days. The shortest is Québec in 7 days: Montréal, Québec City and the whales at Tadoussac; the longest is Canada in 8 days: the Canadian Rockies.
What it costs
≈ AED 850 to ≈ AED 850 per person per day, depending on the route. Beds, food, getting around and things to do — costed line by line in each guide, not estimated from a daily rate.
Entry on an Indian passport
Embassy or consulate in advance, 6 months. A US permanent resident card can stand in. Transit needs a visa. Checked 2026-11 against Wikipedia’s compilation of IATA Timatic entries. Entry rules depend on your passport and where you live, and they change with little notice — confirm with the embassy or your airline before you book. Check another country.

Best for: French North America, and belugas in a fjord
Québec in 7 days: Montréal, Québec City and the whales at Tadoussac
Montréal → Québec City → Île d'Orléans → Charlevoix → Tadoussac → Montréal
Montréal's neighbourhoods, the only walled city north of Mexico, then north along the St Lawrence to where belugas live year round. Which season you pick changes the trip completely — and winter tyres are the law, not a suggestion.
-
Best for: Mountains + road trip
Canada in 8 days: the Canadian Rockies
Calgary → Banff → Icefields Parkway → Jasper
Lakes the colour of toothpaste ads, a highway ranked among Earth's great drives, a glacier you stand on before lunch — Calgary to Banff to Jasper and back, with the visa timeline that needs months (or the eTA shortcut for US-visa holders), the Moraine Lake shuttle war, and 2026's free-entry summer decoded.
