Take a trip that’s fit for royalty – follow Will and Kate’s first official tour, as husband and wife, to Canada

Wednesday, 27 April 2011

After the wedding that will stop the world this April 29, Prince William and his new wife Kate Middleton will travel to Canada for their first official royal tour and as the Canadians roll out the red carpet for the famous couple, Air Canada is encouraging Australians to take a trip that’s fit for royalty.

Canada will be showcasing the best it has to offer with plenty of public events planned for the couple, and as the buzz builds across the country, Air Canada can even get you there for this exciting time with the only non-stop daily service between Sydney and Vancouver and easy connections to 59 destinations around Canada. 

Dedicated royalists could even follow the couple’s nine-day tour from June 30-July 8, travelling through the provinces from east to west, through Alberta, the Northwest Territories, Prince Edward Island, Quebec and Ottawa, or simply take a leaf out of their book and follow their itinerary.

“As they travel through the provinces, both Prince William and his bride will no doubt be blown away by the natural beauty and unique culture that Canada has to offer,” said Jeannie Foster, general manager, Air Canada.  

“They will be visiting some of the most beautiful spots in the country, from the rugged mountain parks in Alberta, the long sandy beaches in Prince Edward Island and historic chateaus in Quebec.”

And if you’re lucky to get yourself there in time, the royal couple will also be taking part in Canada Day celebrations in Ottawa on July 1, where there will be a myriad of free activities such as games, street entertainers, ceremonies and performances, all leading up to a show stopping night time fireworks show.
