Vancouver Island is the ultimate road trip in western Canada — British elegance in Victoria, wild beaches of Tofino, ancient rainforests, orcas in Telegraph Cove, and goats on the roof at Coombs Market. Here's a 7-day step-by-step itinerary with an accommodation table.

Moraine Lake is the even more stunning twin of Lake Louise — the Ten Peaks as a backdrop and water that's an even more intense shade of turquoise. When we worked in Banff, we'd drive here after shifts just to sit on the rocks. Since the road closure in 2023, though, you need a solid plan. Here's everything you need to know.

Icefields Parkway is a 232 km legendary road between Banff and Jasper — arguably the most beautiful stretch of tarmac on the planet. We drove it multiple times while working in Canada, and here's our complete guide with 14 stops, accommodation tips, fuel advice, and how to deal with bears.

Banff vs. Canmore — the eternal dilemma for anyone heading to the Canadian Rockies. When we worked in Banff, locals quickly showed us that Canmore, just 20 minutes down the road, is quieter, cheaper, and has everything you need. Here's our complete comparison of prices, atmosphere, and hikes.

Jasper was our magical retreat when we drove the Icefields Parkway in our old Chiquita. After the devastating 2024 wildfire, the park is awakening in new beauty in 2026 — we'll show you what it looks like today and what you absolutely can't miss.

Yoho in British Columbia is the quieter neighbour of famous Banff. When the crowds at Lake Louise got too much, we'd hop in the car and within half an hour find ourselves standing by the emerald waters of Emerald Lake, the thundering Takakkaw Falls, or the natural rock formation of Natural Bridge.
