Get to Know Mark
How long have you been a Canada travel expert?
I have been with Canadian Affair for over three years. It’s the best job ever and I feel very valued. I've been in travel for nearly 35 years.
Where have you visited in Canada?
I visited Canada first in 1989, and I did coast to coast on the Greyhound buses and most of America too. I've been to Toronto, Montréal, Ottawa, Québec City, Calgary, Banff, Vancouver and Victoria.
What is your favourite destination in Canada?
It's impossible to pick one but Banff, Vancouver and Calgary along with Quebec City are some of my favourites in Canada.
What was your favourite experience in Canada?
Canada is my favourite country, I have so many experiences, but given my love of trains (I used to go to bed with train timetables) it would have to be the Rocky Mountaineer. Unforgettable, magical and you get treated like the Kardashians.

Mark's Expert Advice
Where would you recommend for a first time visit to Canada?
I would definitely say for a first timer try to go to Banff as it's one of the most stunning places on earth and on the first night there, when you are walking down Banff Ave for dinner you will marvel at the beauty of it. I would recommend spending at least 3 nights there.
What's a hidden gem in Canada?
The hidden gem for me has to be walking round Lake Louise its so peaceful and spectacular and you have the Fairmont Hotel overlooking it.
What is your top tip for a Canada Holiday?
It’s a trip of a lifetime but you get good value for money doing a bucket list experience so don’t be afraid to spend money as in the long run it will be well worth it.
