Amazing time for first timers in Canadian Rockies

David Perlman Tuesday July 5, 2022

For “first timers” going to Canadian Rockies and RVing with 3 kids and dog I’m so glad we had everything Pre planned and got lots of helpful advice (especially surrounding getting to popular spots really early in am with RV before it fills up). That saved us! Only thing I’d say. Make sure you get a proper data plan for cellular as RVs don’t have GPS and I’d also recommend proper fire- starter packs you can buy at local stores (look like wooden hockey pucks of saw dust) or a butane/ propane handheld torch because on chance it is damp it’s damn hard to start a fire at night. (Note we are rookies). Also scotch goes a lot better with a hot fire at night! Amazing to see kids connect with nature. Live up the experience. Laugh and just be unstructured. Totally liked being under no pressure to be anywhere other than where we wanted to be.

Hello, David!

For being first timers, you do seem like you've become pros at RV road trips!

You have good advice, which will surely be appreciated by other travelers.

We're glad that you and your family (furry friend included) had an amazing trip out West and that you developed lifelong memories!

It would be a pleasure to help you with your future RV adventures (maybe a trip in Western USA?).
