Thank you so much to my dear friends at FlyOver for hosting our experiences!
I love Canada the way some people love Disney World. Every city I’ve been to has been amazing; every landscape has been stunning; every park has been beautiful. Nowhere on earth is quite like it, and if you’ve never experienced Vancouver’s stunning skyline, the majestic peaks of the Canadian Rockies, or the nautical coasts of Nova Scotia, you’re missing out.
Luckily, there’s a fast and easy way to catch a little bit of everything—and start planning your next big getaway. FlyOver in Vancouver is at Canada Place, and it is the perfect spot to experience all the beauty Canada has to offer. If you thought it looked just like the United States, think again. My friends at FlyOver treated me to tickets to both Awaken Canada and HowlOver, the adorable Halloween-exclusive show.
The Ultimate Flying Ride: FlyOver in Vegas, Vancouver & Beyond
I’ve visited FlyOver in Vegas many times (check out the link for my interview on GoVisit.Guide with the engineer behind FlyOver’s magic), and I’ve seen every show at my local location. If you’re a fan of Soarin’ at Disney, FlyOver is like it’s newer, cooler, better cousin. FlyOver takes you to so many gorgeous regions, from Believe Chicago, which lifts you high above the Windy City, skyline, to Call of the Canadian Rockies, which explores my favorite region of Canada.
Legendary Iceland lets you soar above Iceland’s most stunning landscapes, from mountain ranges to waterfalls. At the same time, Wonders of the American West explores the landscapes of the Southwest with a little nod to the Las Vegas Strip. I’ve now seen every FlyOver show except the new Vancouver holiday show, Soar with Santa, and I can honestly say each show is a fun, geographic, family-friendly experience. It’s also way cheaper than a plane ticket!

Soaring Through Provinces and Spooky Skies
Awaken Canada at FlyOver in Vancouver was an extraordinary exploration of all of the landscapes that make Canada so beautiful. You get to explore the provinces and territories in a way you could never see them in real life. It’s been a bucket list goal of mine to visit every province and territory of Canada, and after seeing Awaken Canada, I’m actively planning my trips! I can’t wait to see the French-inspired streets of Quebec and compare the heartland of Saskatchewan to what we have in America.
HowlOver was another outstanding experience with a little spooky twist! You’ll fly across Canadian landscapes and meet up with some witchy friends as you make your way to an exclusive Halloween party. Next year, I hope to catch the Christmas experience, so fingers crossed for another Vancouver getaway in 2027!
