Canada

Land of The Great Outdoors


Discover a world of wonders

Canada is so much more than maple syrup and mountains, it’s a vibrant tapestry of captivating cities, jaw-dropping scenery, and cultures as diverse as the landscapes themselves. From the French charm of Québec to the Celtic warmth of Nova Scotia, every province feels like stepping into a whole new world.

Imagine yourself exploring glittering glaciers, strolling through lush coastal forests, or soaking up the buzz of cosmopolitan Vancouver and Toronto. Picture spotting majestic wildlife, enjoying warm hospitality in charming towns, or breathing in crisp alpine air beside turquoise lakes.

Flight time.

The flight from Auckland to Canada varies depending on the city you're flying into, but you can fly non-stop in just about 13 hours.

Calendar Icon

Best time to go.

Summer (June to August) offers the warmest weather and is ideal for exploring the national parks, lakes, and cities. September to October is perfect for witnessing the stunning autumn colours, especially in regions like Ontario and Quebec.

Time difference.

Canada spans multiple time zones. For example, Vancouver (Pacific Time) is 19 hours behind New Zealand Standard Time (NZST, GMT +12), while Toronto (Eastern Time) is 16 hours behind. This significant time difference will require some adjustment, especially after a long flight.
