CANADA WEST TOURS (ALBERTA & BRITISH COLUMBIA) August 2018

Do-it-yourself organized tour, divided into 21 days. We booked the flight A / R, arriving on Calgary and returning from Vancouver, the rental car (economy class) and the first two nights at the Hotel in Calgary. The others we booked on the way. It was not easy to find a place to sleep (the Bookingcom site is now too well known and publicized). The weather was almost always almost clear, except for a couple of rain showers. Unfortunately, the fires, scattered throughout Canada and the North of the USA, created a heavy smoke hood and made the air sometimes unbearable. This did not allow us to fully enjoy the view of the Rocky Mountain that could only be admired with the imagination. Luckily the last week, the wind blew the cloud away, improving air quality and visibility.
The B & B and some Motels, have the bad habit of withdrawing the money in advance on the credit card and freezing a deposit of 100CAD to protect themselves in case of damage to something, which then return you within 15 days. One advice is to use a prepaid card to confirm the night and eventually recharge it as needed.
Gasoline costs an average of 1,389 / 1,450 CAD per liter. Be careful not to refuel within the Jasper Park. We have paid the beauty of 2,000 CAD per liter, around 45% more.
As a car they gave us a Chevrolet Cruze Eco, (through AVIS) has allowed us to travel in the city 14/15 km / lt and on the extra-urban roads 18 / 19km / l. According to my personal experience, I can say that Canada is definitely more expensive than the United States of the West.In the last two years there has been a 200% increase in tourism .. It is better to buy a ticket for admission to the parks of the cost of 70 CAD per person, which allows you to enter and visit all those of Canada as many times as you want, also because it happens several times a day to cross the same park for travel. The ticket has a duration of 12 months from the date of purchase. Another advice I can give you, is to book in advance at least two nights a. BANFF and JASPER, Strategic locations as a base, to avoid making a lot of useless km. We have not considered it to feel more free.
We divided the tour into two parts:
The first part, from Calgary we went back to the main parks, Banff, Jasper, Kootenai, Yoho and Vancouver.
The second part: Vancouver and around + Vancouver Island.
As an activity of the route, I put challenging, for its length in km, also combined with the various tracking paths made during the journey, which take away a lot of time and physical energy.
