Travel Planning Tips & Links

Road Trip Travel in Canada, on the Trans Canada Highway

Travel & tourism information for travellers across all provinces and all cities.  To help you plan (and enjoy) your road trips, TransCanadaHighway.com also has detailed info and maps of towns & cities, and attractions, festivals. Our TRAVEL TIPS section has tons of pages &  links detailing weather, road conditions, gas prices, speed traps,  travel info, highway history, etc. And to better enjoy our beautiful countryside,  deep-dive info on all the geology, wildlife, flowers and trees, and even  agriculture you might pass along the way.

We NOW HAVE great travel  info and itineraries for the #16 Yellowhead Highway, the #3 Crowsnest Highway, and the #11 Northern Route in Ontario, and the #7 Southern Route in Ontario, with info and history of all the towns and their attractions along the way

Most importantly, we have detailed itineraries of all segments of the Trans Canada Highway, with the rich history of each. Our  “Ultimate Canadian Bucket List” has over 250 must-see attractions and activities.

While so many Canada Travel websites and books only discuss the major cities, OUR website and itineraries cover the DRIVE and the scenery you will see along the way. Because we are not government funded or government managed, we can give  unique perspectives of interest to visitors and travellers. For example, in Sault Ste Marie and Niagara Falls, we cover BOTH sides of the Canada-US  border. We also cover many worthy communities OFF the Trans Canada Highway, like the Alberta Rockies and BC Rockies,  the Okanagan Region of BC, and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), and Niagara Falls
