Why Visit Ontario?
Ontario is the most populated province in Canada. It lies in the center of the country, with Quebec to the right and Manitoba to the left. To its south, most of its border with the US consists of rivers and lakes. Here you find the Great Lakes, the Lake of the Woods, and the Saint Lawrence River. Most of this land is also arable, which for Miami residents is a welcome change. Beautiful pastoral vistas and tranquil river scenes are aplenty, and all a short visit from the main city of Toronto.
Not only are the walks and hiking stunning, but the climate is extremely palatable. Winters are freezing, but spring, summer, and autumn all provide a welcome respite from the Miami humidity. In addition, many of Ontario's once-strict rules and regulations are beginning to change, bringing more business and tourism to the area. For example, online slots Ontario are now legalized. Most online casinos host a vast range of these games, with a number of different themes, bonus features, and adaptations. If online slots are something you've ever wondered about, Ontario could be the place you first give them a go.

What to See and Do
Niagara Falls is a must-see natural wonder when visiting Ontario. Made up of two American falls and one Canadian, you will need a poncho to deflect the spray. They're loud, but a sight to behold. Cruises depart both day and night and should be easy to get on, even if you don't book in advance.
Aside from Niagara Falls, the great outdoors is a fantastic place to be.
Algonquin Provincial Park is a haven for wildlife. Get a canoe and explore its waterways. You may see otters, beavers, and the Canadian Moose.
For those who want the bright lights of the city, head to Toronto. Here you will find sporting events, art galleries, world-class cuisine, and great evening entertainment. For a city, it is also surprisingly green with plenty of parks and cycle lanes to get around in.
Getting to Ontario from Miami
There are plenty of ways to get from Miami to Ontario. However, most people will opt to fly instead of take buses. In fact, in some cases, a flight is not that different in price and can range from $140 to $600. These flights operate directly from Miami to Toronto airport. Several airlines have routes available, such as Air Canada, Aeromexico, and Air Transat. A cheaper option is to travel to Detroit by road, and then get a flight from there.
You can always decide to drive. On a straight run, this will take just over 24 hours. However, this route should be savored as you get to pitstops in some of the USA's greatest cities and hotspots. Pack up an RV and plan your schedule for the road trip of a lifetime.
