Viva Holidays, Air Canada and Destination Ontario rolled out the maple-red carpet for nine top-selling advisors on an exclusive eight-day famil to Toronto and Niagara Falls from 3–10 March 2025.

Flying Air Canada direct to Vancouver with seamless connections to Toronto (no need to recheck bags or change terminals!), the Destination Ontario famil group hit the ground running, immediately heading off to Niagara Falls.

They spent two days in the world-famous landmark and town, staying at the Sheraton Fallsview and ticking off the region’s top attractions, including the Niagara Parks Power Station, Zipline to the Falls, Journey Behind the Falls and an epic Niagara Helicopters ride over the cascading falls.

A frozen Niagara Falls wowed the Aussie agents.

The group also visited Niagara-on-the-Lake with a stop at Peller Estates Winery to soak up the area’s charm and renowned viticulture, including ice wine.

Back in Toronto, the nine advisors made the centrally located Chelsea Hotel their base to explore all that the major city has to offer.

Highlights included a guided city tour, a Segway experience at the historic Distillery District and fine dining experience with a panoramic view at 360 The Restaurant at the CN Tower.

Helloworld Travel Geraldton agent Georgia Ross added: “Niagara Falls is incredible, especially in winter when the falls freeze over. The town was quiet, with no crowds around, making it a perfect getaway.”

“Toronto, with its rich history and culture, had an extra touch of magic with the snow. I can’t wait to return!”
