Canadian Affair - January Sale Brochure

Canadian Affair was the UK's largest specialist tour operator to Canada, founded in 1995 and known for making North American travel straightforward for British holidaymakers. This January Sale brochure offered 10% off a wide range of holidays including packages, rail tours, cruises, hotels, car hire and motorhome hire. Whether you dreamed of watching wildlife in the Rockies, exploring world-class cities or taking a self-drive adventure, Canadian Affair had an option to suit.

A Specialist in Canada and North America

Canadian Affair built its reputation over two decades by focusing exclusively on Canada and North America. The company flew over one million passengers to Canada and won the Consumer Favourite Tour Operator Award at the British Annual Canada Travel Awards multiple years running. Its range covered fly-drives, escorted coach tours, Rocky Mountaineer rail journeys, cruises with lines such as Holland America, ski holidays, wildlife breaks and city stays — all designed to be adapted to suit individual travellers rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all itinerary.

What the January Sale Covered

The January Sale brochure brought together the full breadth of Canadian Affair's programme with a 10% saving across all bookings. Highlights included hand-picked tour packages across Canada and Alaska, river and ocean cruises, Avis car hire and motorhome rental for self-drive adventures, winery and vineyard experiences in regions such as British Columbia's Okanagan Valley, riding, trekking and climbing itineraries, and flexible hotel programmes for those planning their own route. The brochure was designed to let travellers filter quickly to the type of holiday they actually wanted.

Why Canada in January?

January is one of the most popular months for UK travellers to plan a Canadian holiday. Booking early in the year secures the best availability for summer wilderness trips, the Rocky Mountaineer season, and peak whale-watching windows on both coasts. For those drawn to winter itself, Canada offers world-class ski resorts at Whistler, Banff and Mont-Tremblant. Canadian Affair's January Sale was timed to help travellers lock in plans and savings for the year ahead.
