It’s summer and the it’s time to travel, experience new things and see the best the world has to offer. With summer holidays for kids, and vacation time for adults it’s the perfect time to travel. Whether you prefer a road trip or a destination far away our friends at Church & Dwight have rounded up 10 Must See Travel Destinations that are perfect for any type of traveller.
Canadian Destinations
Whistler, BC
The city is known for its majestic slopes, but without the snow you’re looking at a beautiful backdrop for outdoor adventures with an unforgettable view. Vacationing in Whistler in the summer is a dream come true for those that love outdoor adventure and great restaurants.
Toronto, ON
There’s nothing like getting your family’s adrenaline pumping by climbing up the CN Tower and leaning off the edge of a 553 meter high skyscraper! The Edge Walk is one of the most daring attractions in Canada!
Cavendish Beach, PEI
Red sandstone cliffs with crystal blue water surrounds you at the Cavendish Beach. While you’re there, explore historic sites, like the Green Gables Heritage Place and enjoy fantastic cuisine.
Banff, AB
If you’re craving a breathtaking view – this place is for you! You can kayak between the Rocky Mountains or simply take it all in. Stay at the famous Banff Springs Hotel or find a Bed and Breakfast that suits your taste.
Quebec City, QC
Here you’ll find hints of European charm mixed with authentic French Canadian character. Grab a poutine and walk around the old city, home to iconic Chateau Frontenac. If your legs start to give in, hop on a horse-drawn carriage along the cobblestone streets. It is truly a destination unlike anything else in North America.
International Destinations
Grand Canyon, U.S.A.
One of the wonders of the world! It’s worth getting on a helicopter to soak in a truly life-changing experience. With lots of tours and hiking trails you can experience the Grand Canyon whichever way you choose.
Sesimbra, Portugal
This beautiful little fishing port is filled with colourful and authentic charm, known for its beaches, local cafes and fish restaurants. If delving into culture is what you’re looking for, this is it.
Kefalonia, Greece
Take a boat ride and you’ll be surrounded by picturesque villages, olive groves, beaches and tremendous mountains. There is something really special about greek culture and cuisine.
Hong Kong, China
A bustling and exciting harbour city, you’d be surprised how easy it is for tourists to explore. There are lots of kid-friendly activities, such as Hong Kong Disneyland and Ocean Park. The mixture of traditional elements and a vibrant city
Siem Reap, Cambodia
A trip for the adventurous: the city showcases original ancient temples, including the Angkor Archaeological Park, cited as one of the most valuable archaeological sites in South-East Asia – so you know it’s worth getting over the jet lag for!
The options for travel are endless. When you’re getting organized and ready, don’t forget about Gravol™.
