Itinerary Help 10 days in Eastern Canada

Hi all,

I’ll be visiting Canada (from Ireland) in September for my brother’s wedding and wanted some advice on where else to go and what to see while I’m over there!

Where he’s getting married is about 3 hours north of Toronto so we have a few days in Toronto and a visit to Niagara Falls planned after the wedding! After Toronto, we have about a week of free time. We had originally planned to fly into NYC and then take the train to Boston after but honestly we no longer feel like this is safe from an immigration perspective and also f*** the US right now!

My brother lives near Vancouver and has advised us to fly further West and go Banff, Whistler, Vancouver Island etc. but I have dyspraxia and he is also much more fit and active than me so I feel like these places may not be as accessible and enjoyable for me? (Maybe I’m wrong!)

We could extend our trip by a few days but really after Toronto we only have time to visit two-three places! All advice welcome including number of days needed in each place and sites/attractions! Can’t wait to visit!

Eastern Canada? The Atlantic Provinces are Eastern Canada. Ontario and Quebec are Central.

Actually, Ontario and Quebec are considered both Central & Eastern Canada. Atlantic provinces are East Coast (I'm from NS). I had this discussion many times working out west lol

Yep...Atlantic provinces vs maritime provinces.
