About the Great Canadian Adventure Spring Break Program
This course examines Canada's history, culture, political and social systems, natural environment, and their impact on leisure. You will explore how nature and culture create and transform individual experiences. This trip gives you the chance to traveling through the three of Canada's greatest cities: Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal. The tour will finish in Niagara Falls Canada!
Montreal
Montréal is the largest city in the Québec province. With a gorgeous triple-peaked hill in the center, Montreal is an island in the Saint Lawrence River. The French colonial, and Gothic styles are still seen throughout the cobblestone city along with an impressive Botanical Garden display. As if the Montreal is not enough, below the surface lies an enormous Underground City containing dozens of malls and connections to various Metro stations.

Ottawa
Welcome to Canada’s capital! Ottawa sits in the southeastern province of Ontario right on the Ottawa River. Parliament Hill can be found in the center of this city along with grand Victorian architecture and museums throughout. The Rideau Canal is lined by parks and full of outdoor activities year round. We will even watch an Ottawa Senators hockey game in the land where hockey is the nation's favorite sport!

Toronto is a relevant Canadian city along Lake Ontario with one of the most impressive skylines one will ever see. Toronto is a dynamic metropolis surrounded by skyscrapers, the iconic CN Tower, and surprisingly a variety of green parks and trails along with a wildlife zoo.
