Joey Hadden/Business Insider I visited Canada for the first time in 2022, exploring the eastern provinces of Ontario and Quebec.

I spent seven days traveling through Niagara Falls, Toronto, Montreal, and Quebec City.

I want to return to Quebec and Niagara Falls and take more Canadian trains to other provinces.

Colossal waterfalls, scenic train rides , and cities that feel like Europe — I experienced them all in one week during my first trip to Canada.

In August 2022, I traveled from my home in New York City to Canada's eastern provinces of Ontario and Quebec.

Overall, my trip to Canada was only a taste of what the country has to offer — a rich bite that left me hungry for more.

I knew from the moment I left that I would be back.

I traveled to Ontario and Quebec by bus, train, and plane, hitting cities and attractions from Niagara Falls to Montreal.

Joey Hadden/Business Insider I traveled by train from NYC to Niagara Falls, New York, and walked into Niagara Falls, Canada .

After three days in the Niagara Falls area, I took a bus up to Toronto for a night.

From there, I traveled by train to Montreal and Quebec City , spending one night in each city before flying home to New York.

As a seasoned Amtrak rider, I found Canada's train system, Via Rail, so impressive that I want to return to try more classes and routes.
