  Follow Boston’s Freedom Trail

  Boston is one of the United States' most historical cities, so it genuinely should be on your must-visit list when traveling to North America. In Boston, the top tourist attraction is the Freedom Trail, a 2.5-mile walking path that brings visitors to significant historical spots throughout the downtown area. There are 16 sites along the trail in total, and you can spend at least a few hours walking the path. It was first established in 1951, but all buildings and monuments on the trail date back to at least the 18th century.

You can see Niagara Falls from either the United States or Canada. Arguably, it's better to see it from the Canadian side. Head to Ontario, and you'll be in for a real treat!

One such national park which checking out is Yoho National Park, which also has Takakkaw Falls. If you aren't interested in going to a national park, then opt to hop on a Canadian train to bring you through the Rockies. You won't want to stop looking out your window.
