- Visitors to Canada should focus on a specific region to get the most out of their stay, as Canada’s tremendous size makes it virtually impossible to see all its attractions in just a few weeks
- Flying is often a cheaper way to travel between cities than driving, especially since Canada has some of the world’s costliest car insurance minimums, longest distances between major cities, and limited mileage policies between provinces
- In Canada, fuel is sold in liters, distances are measured in kilometers, and temperatures are reported in Celsius
- Visitors driving between Canada and the United States should give themselves extra time as it often gets crowded at border crossings
