What people love about Canada Tours in October
- Wonders of the Bay of Fundy
A wonderful experience overall. Learned and saw A LOT of very cool and amzing things in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, Canada. Very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide, bus driver, and other participants were all good and nice/friendly people.
Overall, I HIGHLY recommend. You see so many different places and view points. Every place was amazing and the staff was overall organized. The only recommendation is to have them be more specific with food options so we know what we are getting when it’s “chicken or beef” as it sometimes meant chicken thigh and steak or chicken patty and burger.
Explore the Canadian Rockies in 5 Days: Banff, Jasper & Yoho National Parks Tour
- Rockies Premium Tour from Vancouver
It was a wonderful tour. Activities were arranged to keep us busy but not too much. I definitely will recommend to others.
What our customers ask about Canada Tours in October 2026
What is the weather like in Canada during October?
October brings varied conditions across Canada's vast landscape. Vancouver and Victoria maintain mild temperatures between 10-15°C (50-60°F). The Rocky Mountains turn cooler dropping to 5-10°C (41-50°F) with early snow possible at Lake Louise and Jasper. Eastern Canada remains comfortable during the day at 15°C but nights cool down to 5°C. A TourRadar traveler mentioned: "The weather in Quebec City during October was perfect for walking tours - crisp mornings but comfortable afternoons and stunning fall colors everywhere."
What are the special events and festivals in Canada during October?
The month fills with cultural celebrations across the country. Cape Breton's Celtic Colours International Festival brings Scottish music and traditions to life while Vancouver draws film enthusiasts to its International Film Festival. Ottawa celebrates autumn with the Fall Rhapsody festival and Jasper National Park hosts its Dark Sky Festival mid-month. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The Celtic Colours festival in Cape Breton was an incredible way to experience local culture and music while enjoying the fall scenery."
Are Northern Lights visible in Canada during October?
October provides favorable conditions for aurora viewing in Northern Canada especially around Whitehorse Yukon. Arctic Range Adventure tours offer viewings from their AuroraCentre. Earlier sunsets create longer viewing windows throughout the month. A TourRadar traveler noted: "We saw spectacular Northern Lights displays on two out of three nights during our October visit to Whitehorse at the AuroraCentre viewing location."
What are the best places to see fall colors in Canada during October?
Fall colors reach their peak in October. The Cabot Trail in Cape Breton displays rich reds oranges and yellows against coastal backdrops. Mont-Tremblant's Laurentian Hills burst with color while Banff National Park's larches turn golden against mountain peaks. One TourRadar traveler noted: "The fall colors along the Icefields Parkway in October were absolutely spectacular, with the golden aspens contrasting beautifully against the dramatic mountain backdrop."
What are the best October tours for seeing the Northern Lights in Canada?
Northern Canada offers prime aurora viewing opportunities in October. Yellowknife tours based from the Nova Inn provide clear viewing conditions while Churchill Manitoba combines aurora viewing with polar bear expeditions. According to a TourRadar traveler: "Our October Northern Lights tour in Yellowknife provided perfect conditions with clear skies and spectacular aurora displays."
What are the best hiking trails in Canada during October?
Fall transforms popular hiking trails across Canada. Johnston Canyon in Banff National Park offers peaceful walks with fewer visitors. Ontario's Bruce Trail showcases dense autumn foliage while the Skyline Trail in Cape Breton provides ocean vistas. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "Hiking Johnston Canyon in October was perfect - comfortable temperatures and the fall colors made every view picture-perfect."
