Driving Tips for Canada
Canada is the land of the great outdoors, with mouth-watering prospects for road trips. Here are some handy driving tips to make car rental in Canada safe and easy:
- Driving on the right: This can be a bit unnerving, especially changing gears with your other hand. It's a good idea to choose an automatic when you rent a car in Canada.
- Speed limits: Speed limits can vary from province to province, but in general you can drive at up to 50 km/h (30 mph) in urban areas and 100 km/h (62 mph) on motorways. The limits are signposted in kilometres per hour.
- Watch out for trams: While not illegal, in Canadian cities, it's seen as bad form to pass a tram that has stopped to pick up or drop off passengers.
- Don't underestimate the weather: As much as you may be used to driving in icy or snowy conditions in the UK, Canada presents a tougher challenge. Be cautious and ask locals whether it's safe or not, especially if black ice is present.
Best places to visit in Canada
Organising car hire in Canada lets you make the most of this vast country's natural beauty and its famous tourist attractions.
- Cityscapes meet natural wonders: The Lake Ontario area around Toronto offers contrasting experiences. You can go to the top of the CN Tower for extraordinary views, and then take a 2-hour road trip to Niagara Falls.
- World-renowned ski resorts: With a hire car, you'll have no trouble reaching the ski resort of your choice. Top of the list is the Whistler winter sports area near Vancouver, where you can also go mountain biking in summer.
- Majestic lakes and mountain scenery: Fly to Calgary and hire a car for a drive to Banff National Park. The snow-capped Rocky Mountains form a stunning backdrop to aquamarine lakes like Lake Louise, one of the best lakes in Canada.
