Peak season
Canada’s peak tourist season stretches over the warm summer months from June through to August when domestic travellers are on their annual vacation. Hotel prices peak during this period, city sights are packed with visitors, and the hiking trails throughout the country’s national parks are incredibly busy. There are also plenty of festivals taking place, such as the famous Montreal Jazz Festival, so if you plan to travel during this period, be sure to book your accommodation well in advance to get the best deals.
Off season
Outside of North American school holidays, the spring, autumn and winter months are generally considered the “off” season in Canada and you can get some great flight and accommodation deals if you opt to travel during these periods. Spring sees the national parks ignited in blossoming flowers, autumn brings with it the changing of foliage, and in winter snowfall blankets the landscape a glorious white. January and February are generally the coldest months, with temperatures in the north of Canada dropping to well below freezing point, so if you are visiting during this time, come prepared with lots of layers!

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Canada, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, July is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 21.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of January, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around -6.0 C).
You will secure the best travel deals throughout the year if you book well in advance, particularly if you are planning to escape the winter cold in New Zealand and visit during the long North American summer holidays. The Christmas/New Year period is another time when flights to Canada are in high demand as travellers head to the country’s ski slopes, but you can secure some good flight deals in both spring and autumn.
