How long do we need in Canada?

Canada is the second largest country in the world. You could spend months travelling the ever-changing landscape and not see the same place twice. For your holiday, the question becomes, “How long do we have together?”

Travel at a relaxed tempo

To truly experience the essence of Canada, we recommend travelling at a relaxed pace for a minimum of three weeks. Or, if you have slightly less time, your travel specialist can advise you on the best regions to visit based on your wishes.

How do we travel around?

From coastal roads, to panoramic mountain passes, and awe-inspiring glacier landscapes, Canada is best explored by car or SUV. The roads are safe and there is so much to see that you are constantly tempted to stop. Taking time to capture these moments on camera is almost a must.

Take advantage of our special deals and travel comfortably, complete with:

  • A navigation system
  • Air-conditioning
  • Full insurance and low fuel costs
  • Hire cars that are less than six months old
  • Safe and secure roads
  • A route with only a couple of hours between each location

Drive less, see more

Driving yourself means that you can reach places that group trips and public transport cannot. You can go at your own pace, avoid the busy cities, and stop when necessary. Your travel specialist will organise a modern and comfortable rental car for you. With only a couple of hours between each location, you’ll have more time to relax and explore together. And that’s what a great holiday is all about.

If you are thinking of renting a campervan, talk to us now and discover why driving in a rental car is the best way to see Canada.
