You may know this already but,
1. Bring your passport if you have one. It’s simpler, faster and easier to get through the border.
2.if you have them, leave your guns and annumintion at home. You shouldn’t need them up here. Also your medical marijuana. The border doesn’t recognize your US rights to carry. Canada is similar, but it’s still a different country with different laws.
3.staying in any national park requires a park pass. If there is no one at the gate of the park, look for the park office to obtain one.
4.book early. You can enjoy traveling fairly easily from mid April to mid-Oct but we Canadians love our outdoors. Look for reservations at least 2 days before you want to visit a location.
5.dont be afraid to head north. Long days and beautiful country are everywhere.

6. Here’s a link for one of the Tunnel mountain campgrounds. There’s a lot more to Canada than Toronto, Banff, Jasper and the Calgary stampede. Lol Enjoy!

7.watch out for our half ton drivers. They’re always in a hurry, looking for their next speeding ticket. People seem to hate being behind any RV

8.our speed and distance is in kilometres per hour, so know your conversions. Your $ is about $1.30here this summer, but I’d covert it at an ATM as each business sets its own conversion rate, and some places will give you par, so you lose your advantage

Take your time and enjoy your visit, and welcome to Canada. Check the border link before you come, as restrictions can change if outbreaks or problems occur.
