It’s an historic town packed with charming shops, galleries and heritage sites. While you’re here, catch a performance at the world-renowned Shaw Festival dedicated to George Bernard Shaw and his contemporaries.

Follow the wine route signs on a romantic journey to small boutique wineries, exquisite estates and superb restaurants in one of the premiere wine regions of the world, which boasts more than 40 varieties of grapes and more than 50 wineries. Watch massive freighters navigate up the Great Lakes via the Welland Canal. Then go golfing with the roaring Niagara River as a backdrop in a region where the views are breathtaking and the 40 courses can be demanding.
