With its vast size and range of climates, North America doesn’t have a single best travel season. Northern areas experience more pronounced seasonal changes, while southern regions tend to see milder shifts and longer stretches of warm weather. The best time to visit ultimately depends on your destination and priorities.
The top tour style depends on the region, landscape, and traveler. We offer a range of tours to showcase the best of each destination, from leisurely journeys and small-group adventures to cruises.
Entry requirements vary by country and traveler, so check official government websites for up-to-date information. When packing, consider how weather can vary across regions. Keep in mind that Canada and the United States use different currencies.

Pretty much everything on the tour went well, largely thanks to our tour guide, Julie Y. We enjoyed the dinners and included tours, plus extras like the Road to Hana. Hotels were pretty nice, although some locations could have been a little more convenient. I wish the flight to the big island had been earlier in the day. The later flight caused us to rush some and get into the hotel pretty late. Otherwise, the trip was well planned and run. We would use Collette again.

Our tour was packed full of exciting things to see our tour guide was so knowledgeable and explained everything about it. Why it was how it came to be Todd was awesome. Our driver Joshua avoided two collisions from crazy people. He was awesome on point so patient and his bus was wonderful. I think my one of my favorite was the falls. We went to the big Falls out of forget what they were called and the majesty of Mount Rushmore.

I haven’t had so much fun and enjoyment on a vacation as I did during this Collette Tour. I have been telling everyone who asks about how great everything was on this trip. Todd, our Tour manager was phenomenal! He shared so much information and as a former US History teacher it was right up my alley. Mount Rushmore and Ol’ Faithful were my most favorite parts of the tour but there wasn’t anything I didn’t like. The culture, history, and geography of every area we visited was pointed out and explained to help us understand how it all came together. I enjoyed it so much I’m already looking forward to my next adventure!

I was surprised how much I loved Calgary. I usually don’t care for cities. The mountains and the beautiful lakes took my breath away. Daniel was a fabulous guide and was a wealth of information. He had many stories to keep us amused on the bus. I would highly recommend.

Loved Mackinac Island. Well planned. Very poor service at second Hotel. Waited forever on rooms and customer service was sooooo unsympathetic. Rooms were not that nice either.

Hotel in Fairbanks was not up to Collette or HAL standards. Too crowded for early morning departure and buffet. Food was not refilled and mostly empty. Not enough seating. Room was clean - but sad and tired. Enjoyed the riverboat ride more than I had anticipated. That was great. Our bus driver Peter was amazing on our Denali tour! Cannot remember his name, but from Fairbanks to Denali bus driver was lovely! Really enjoyed the domed train ride!! Loved HAL very much. This trip was magical. Kind of fell in love with Alaska. Katie Johns was an amazing tour guide. Thank you, Collette!

Niagra Falls was my favorite. Getting to visit 4 different cities balanced with nature attractions drew me to the trip. City hotels were amazingly quiet. Activity Level should be higher. This was NOT a Level 1. My guests struggled. Lots of walking on uneven surfaces and hills. Pow Wow dinner was kind of disappointing. This area probably offers better indigenous opportunities. Would have liked a broader scope for free time activities.

Great trip. Great tour guide. Went above and beyond for a great experience. Went to extra stops like the pineapple farm. Pearl Harbor, Kilauea volcano and the road to Hana were highlights.

Great Trip! Tour Manager needs some Public Relations Training. Our tour manager talked too much about non relevant nonsense. She shared about a cousin in a cult, lacked actual historical knowledge, kept referencing the Americans, and joked so much followed by, “Just Kidding “ One example: She said we had to pay for restrooms. Then paused and said, “Just kidding.” People were all digging for money by that time. She confused a lot of older folks. She also would tell us the time to meet followed by several other times she thought of using and by the time she was finished rambling on, no one knew what time was what. She never gave us a moment of silence to visit with our travel buddies or to read or slept on the four hour bus drive. If she caught you visiting with your seat-mate, she would stop and say, “I’ll wait.” She thought she was a stand up comedian. She was frustrating.

Our tour guide, Kris, was extremely knowledgeable about each place we visited. From start to finish, it was a great tour. I would highly recommend this trip. It marked off many places on our bucket list. Beautiful sites!

I enjoyed getting out and walking around the island. Looking at the homes and the lilacs all around town. The view from the fort was amazing. The Grand Hotel was very cool. Just moving about and exploring.
