Canada

Canada is a country in North America, bordered by Greenland and the United States of America, with its capital city being Ottawa.

It is a country rich in fascinating natural landscapes, and their culture is ecologist, as they have maximum respect for the environment and especially for animals. Another important aspect is its multiethnic concentration, which can also be perceived from the various religions practiced in the country such as Catholicism, Protestantism, Buddhism, etc.

When visiting Canada, it is an absolute must to visit the Niagara Falls, the city of Ottawa, Banff National Park, the Bay of Fundy, and many other wonders.

The most frequent, efficient and cost-effective means of transportation are buses, but taxis with fixed and convenient rates are also available.

The climate of Canada is subarctic with very cold and long winters, while summers are short and hot. However, usually, the southern part of the country has a continental climate while the west coast has a mild oceanic climate, meaning few snowfalls during the winter months.

Canada is a magical place waiting to be explored!

How to travel to Canada

Countries exempt from the requirement to obtain a regular Canadian visa can travel to Canada with an eTA, an electronic travel authorization that allows them to stay in Canada for a maximum of 180 consecutive days and has a validity of 5 years. The eTA is mandatory when traveling to Canada by air, but if the traveler enters Canada by land or sea (via a bus, train, ship, or cruise ship), they DO NOT NEED an eTA.

It is essential to emphasize, that citizens not belonging to the exempt countries must apply for a Canadian visa.

To obtain a Canada eTA you need:

• have a valid passport for eTA purposes;

• have an email address;

• have a valid credit card;
