As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, the allure of fall travel becomes irresistible.
According to a recent fall travel outlook from Expedia, Victoria has emerged as one of the top destinations for Canadian travellers this autumn, joining other popular spots like Montréal and Moncton—all of which are gaining popularity for Thanksgiving travel.
Victoria’s charm is undeniable year-round, but fall adds a unique magic to the city.
With its picturesque streets, historic architecture, and abundant green spaces, the capital of British Columbia offers an ideal setting for a seasonal escape.
The autumn foliage in Victoria’s parks and gardens provides a stunning backdrop for leisurely strolls, while the city’s vibrant cultural scene ensures there’s always something to see and do.
Top Fall Destinations in Canada:
Victoria isn’t alone in attracting fall travellers. Expedia’s top 10 list for domestic travel this season includes:
- Toronto
- Vancouver
- Montreal
- Niagara Falls
- Quebec City
- Banff
- Calgary
- Canmore
- Victoria
- Ottawa
For those looking beyond Canada’s borders, Las Vegas, Tokyo, New York, Rome, and Paris are among the most searched international destinations this fall.
However, even with these global hotspots in the mix, Victoria holds its own as a preferred choice for domestic travellers.
Expedia also notes that the Thursday and Friday following Labour Day are the busiest travel days of the fall season, as many Canadians look to extend their holiday weekends or take advantage of shoulder season savings.
