Getting there from the US
Crossing the longest undefended border in the world is
straightforward. Many visitors from the northern US just drive, as
the major Canadian cities - Montréal and Toronto in the east,
Winnipeg and Calgary in the middle and Vancouver in the west - are
all within an hour's drive of the border. However, if you're coming
from Florida or southern California, or want to go from New York to
British Columbia, flying is obviously a lot quicker. Travelling by
train is another alternative, at least if you're not in a hurry and
want to see something of the landscapes along the way, and there
are a few bus and ferry options too
