Canadian Cruise and Rail Holidays in High Demand, Says Destination Canada

Demand for cruise and rail holidays in Canada for 2022 is on the rise, according to the regional managing director of Destination Canada. Rupert Peters, regional managing director for UK, France and Germany, also acknowledged the important role the trade will play in the post-COVID-19 tourism recovery. “Recently what I’m hearing is that demand is picking up for 2022 and one of the key products that people are asking for are rail-cruise combinations,” he said to the UK’s Travel Weekly. Canada extended its ban on cruise ships earlier this year, but Peters said he believes that won’t affect tourism from the UK to Canada when travel reopens. Peters said Destination Canada will be targeting customers who want to travel more sustainably, ahead of when travel to Canada restarts.
