Buckle up! This summer, it’s time to explore everything Canada has to offer with Go RVing Canada.

With spring in full force, summer travel has never felt closer. Forget travelling abroad because this summer it’s time to hit the road and explore everything Canada has to offer. 

Since the pandemic, domestic travel has boomed with an increasing amount of Canadians looking to turn in their passport for their drivers license and hit the open road. Giving the driver full control of the trip, RVing remains one of the best ways to travel. 

Whether you’re new to RVing or have many road trips under your belt, Go RVing Canada can help ease the stress of planning your trip with various resources available online to help you prepare every step of the way.

Looking to catch the sunset on an off-the-beaten path? What about popping into that restaurant off the side of the road you know you’ll be talking about for years? RVing lets you do both! 

So, this summer, we’re saying get outdoors and experience a one-of-a-kind road trip, right here in your own backyard.

Why renting an RV is a must-try summer activity

Flying to a new country can be fun, but it’s also expensive and often comes with a lot of hurdles to get there (we know everyone’s experienced those miserable delays at the airport!). When you RV, you forego those downfalls, offering a flexible travel option completely tailored to fit the wants, needs, and budget of your group. RVing offers the freedom to live your wildhood (especially after being cooped up these past two years), letting you disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature and more importantly, your loved ones.

Don’t wait another second in planning your road trip this summer! 

We know there is a lot to think about when it comes to planning a trip, but don’t let that deter you. With no signs of domestic travel slowing down, the demand for RVs and campgrounds across the country are at an all-time high, so it’s important to start planning now! For those interested in RVing this summer, we recommend locking in your spot as soon as possible as campground space and RV inventory are limited.

Unsure where to start? No problem! GoRVing.ca offers resources to help you make the right decision in choosing the model, fit for you. First-time RVers can check out the RV Starter Toolkit which has tools and advice to help answer all your big questions and help you feel confident hitting the open road! 

Go RVing Canada can even help you match with your perfect RV, offering an interactive quiz that takes into consideration your wants, needs, and the type of trip you’re looking for. With so many options to choose from, trust us when we say this is very helpful! If you’re still unsure and looking to speak to someone directly, get connected with a local dealer through GoRVing.ca’s Find a Dealer section.

Summer is just around the corner, so if you haven’t already started, get planning now! 

What to keep in mind

When exploring the outdoors, it’s important to be mindful of the environment and the impact we have on it, whether you’re RVing or not. It’s up to us to keep the environment and our parks healthy for the next generation to enjoy.  

Though RVing has a smaller carbon footprint when compared to other travel methods such as flying, it’s still important to keep sustainability practices top of mind. For instance, when staying in a park, ensure you’re taking the right precautions to leave the park in its natural state so everyone else visiting can enjoy it as well. If you’re looking for pointers on how to RV responsibly, GoRVing.ca offers expert tips on RV travel etiquette.
