With activities and festivals to please every traveller, Ontario and Québec are top destinations
TORONTO, July 11, 2012 /CNW/ - There's a reason the majority of the Canadian population lives in central Canada. It has major metropolitan areas, is easily accessible and is close to our U.S. neighbours. But did you know it's also an exciting, and versatile, destination for summer travellers?
From festivals to concerts and outdoor attractions, there's no shortage of things to do during the summer months. With this in mind, the travel experts at Hotels.com® have put together a list of activities for your entertainment.
"One of the great things about Canada is that no two provinces are the same," says Taylor L. Cole, director public relations and social media, North America at Hotels.com. "Ontario and Québec, in particular, really come alive in the summertime, making them the perfect places for affordable summer vacations."
