Positioning Canadian Travel for Canadians
A renewed sense of national pride is shaping consumer choices across Canada, and the travel industry is no exception.
Emphasize the "Buy Canada" Movement
Encourage clients to book travel that supports small, local tourism businesses and invites them to explore communities in a way that will have a positive impact on the Canadian economy.
One excellent example of an itinerary that supports this sentiment is the Aurora Borealis Adventure, a 4-day northern journey to Whitehorse.

Leverage Storytelling
The best travel experiences are those that bring connection to people and place. Canadians across the country have incredible stories to tell. Platforms like Northern Soul Magazine, Landsby's in-house seasonal publication, are a great way to leverage the power of storytelling to encourage travel to lesser-known destinations.

Think Outside the Box
Ask anyone what they know about Canada and you'll likely get answers about Niagara Falls, Banff, or one of the country's large cities. But Canada has so much to offer beyond the big tourist areas.
Lesser-known destinations, such as Saskatchewan, are a prime example where incredible experiences await those who think — and travel — outside the box. See below for examples of some of the experiences awaiting your clients in Saskatchewan.

Selling Canadian Travel to International Visitors
Highlight Canada’s Authenticity
Canada's tourism sector is filled with small operators who offer authentic and immersive experiences. One unique itinerary that we love to share is a 12-day Western Canada: Mountains, Lakes and Coastal Lodges trip that takes in the beauty of two provinces in one epic road trip.
Market Canada’s Natural Wonders
Canada is the second largest country in the world, with a varied landscape that allows for stunning outdoor adventures of all types and in all seasons, such as viewing Northern Lights in the winter or fall foliage in the autumn. One of our favourite ways to get into nature is through this wild life tour.
Canada as an Eco Destination
Global travellers care about the environment and so do Canadians. In fact, Canada excels in eco-tourism. Promoting eco-focused trips to international travellers is a great way to showcase the country. One great example is this 4-day retreat in the Quebec countryside.

Winter
Winter in Canada beckons travellers looking to escape the ordinary. Skate on a frozen lake in the Canadian Rockies, see the Auora Borealis dance in the dark skies or enjoy a cozy getaway in the snow-covered boreal forest. Winter often means fewer crowds, so bundle up and enjoy the icy beauty.

Spring
Spring in Canada brings with it maple syrup, budding trees and bursts of colour. It is a perfect time for wildlife adventures, Aurora viewing and exploring the outdoors. It is also a great time to book city stays before the rush of summer travel. Spring varies throughout the country.

Summer
Long days and warm temperatures characterize summers in Canada. It is the perfect time to plan a trip: go on a road trip to one of Canada’s coasts, learn to paddle along a heritage river, hike the gorgeous mountains or opt to explore some of Canada’s beautiful cities. There’s no shortage of things to do.

Fall/Autumn
Between the warm days and the brilliant colours of the changing leaves, there’s a lot to love about autumn in Canada. Try a cozy retreat in the woods, go on a hiking excursion in the mountains, or head across Canada on a train ride of a lifetime. Fall is the perfect time to plan a bucket-list adventure.
