Best time to visit Canada

Canada is a place lots of people visit almost all year round, but if you’re looking for the best time to go, September-October is definitely the time you should visit. This is based on a number of factors such as the weather, cost of flights and accommodation, peak travel periods and more.

In summer, temperatures can reach as high 28℃ (83℉) in the middle of the day in Toronto. In the colder months such as January, temperatures usually get down to an average minimum of -7℃ (19℉). Temperatures often differ in other areas of Canada though so you can find out more information about this below.

The sun stays up the longest in Canada in July, so you’ll get the most out of your daytime activities if you visit around this time. July sees the most amount of rain in a month if you’re ok with chancing getting drenched, so if you’re looking to stay dry, visit in February instead.

Below you’ll find loads more detailed information about when to travel to Canada, including a monthly climate breakdown for the top destinations and loads of tools and recommendations to help you find flights and accommodation to suit your budget.
