Emily - Tennessee, United States

"The staff at Canada by Design could not have been more helpful and friendly."

Clive New South Wales, Australia

Hazel Scotland

"This was an A++ experience! I'll definitely use Canada by Design for our next trip to Canada."

Kathleen Texas, United States

"I highly recommend Canada by Design for Canadian travel. All I told them was, "design a Western Canada trip that goes where most people want to go." What they designed was perfect, beautifully planned, and beautifully executed. Every vendor they chose for excursions showed up on time, was pleasant and helpful, and did what they promised. Highlights were the seaplane from Vancouver to Victoria, the Rocky Mountaineer domed train from Vancouver to Jasper, and the Fairmont Gold hotel rooms."

Jane S

"I don't know how I will ever thank you all at Canada by Design for making our trip of a lifetime!"

Ann - Australia

"Canada By Design proved to be a great tour operator. Every stop, every transfer, and every destination proved to be perfect. Most impressive: all of our transfers were right on time. We may have to do this again and stay more than 4 days."

Annabelle - Delaware, United States

"We booked a trip to see the northern lights in Whitehorse and couldn't be happier with the experience. Francesca was great with answering any questions we had and getting everything set up so we could have such an amazing experience, complete with different activities in the day, and a stunning aurora viewing area by night. We couldn't have asked for a better time checking off a bucket list item of ours. Cannot recommend Canada By Design enough and will definitely be looking for more tours with them in the future. "
