‘Experience several cultures and explore a wide variety of colourful scenery and diverse activities’

The North American continent is bounded by the Arctic Ocean in the north, by the North Atlantic Ocean in the east, by the Caribbean Sea in the south, and by the North Pacific Ocean in the west. It is an immense continent both in its physical size and its population.

A holiday in North America offers travellers the opportunity to experience several cultures and to explore a wide variety of colourful scenery and diverse activities. The major countries of North America, the United States and Canada, offer hundreds of exciting tourist attractions such as Niagara Falls, the Grand Canyon and Rocky Mountains.

Canada is vast and is known for its great natural landscapes, as well as major cities such as Toronto and Vancouver. With two major cultures and two languages, French and English, Canada offers a unique cultural experience.

The United States has many of the world’s most sought after tourist attractions. Visiting the US offers a historical view of a relatively young country. Its youth is most notable in cities like Orlando, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and New York where theme parks, museums, and entertainment are the most popular North American attractions. The states in the northeast and in the southeast offer an abundance of locations for those seeking to learn about US history. The western United States is home to many national parks and natural geologic formations. Then, when travellers seek a relaxing, tropical vacation, Hawaii is the destination naturally chosen by international and domestic travellers alike.
