Description

Most Canadians think of travel as a way to escape the snow, cold, and dreary winter skies. But Robin Esrock loves all that the provinces of Ontario and Quebec have to offer visitors, and so will you! The Great Central Canada Bucket List highlights the best travel experiences to be had in the heart of Canada.

Renowned travel writer and TV host Robin Esrock explored every inch of central Canada to craft the definitive Bucket List for the region. Running the gamut of nature, food, culture, history, adrenaline rushes, and quirky Canadiana, Robin’s personal quest to tick off the very best of Ontario and Quebec packs in enough for a lifetime. The Great Central Canada Bucket List provides a first-hand perspective on:

Riding a motorcycle around Lake Superior.
Drinking caribou with Bonhomme.
Unravelling a mystery in Algonquin Park.
Spending the night at an ice hotel.
Scaling the via ferrata at Mont-Tremblant.
Exploring the great museums.
Cave-swimming in the Magdalen Islands
