EXPLORE CANADA WITH CANADREAM
Explore

I’ll bet thoughts of childhood camping trips in the good old family trailer conjure all kinds of memories.
Do you remember sleeping sardine-style on a lumpy mattress with elbowing siblings? Burning everything over the campfire because the trailer’s stove only kinda-sorta worked? Taking care of business in the woods or at random outhouses to avoid overloading the dreaded blackwater storage tank? And, of course, living all summer with that vague mildewy aroma from keeping everything locked up all winter?
Ah yes….and then, there were the sounds of summer. Out on the open road, Dad would curse the way the trailer handled and
Mom would hush him, while you and your siblings whined about reaching the next campground.
Today, a world-wide pandemic that’s made international travel next to impossible and put a giant premium on cottage rentals is making even the old trailer look pretty good. But the great news is there’s been a tidal wave of change in the RV industry – and that title change is key! You’d never dare call the new vacation beauties out there “trailers”! Recreational vehicles are now luxury vacation homes on wheels, available in a huge range of sizes and styles, all designed to help you make the most of precious vacation days.
One of the standouts in the RV world is CanaDream, a company that offers a great lineup of holidaying
possibilities. Featuring vehicles ranging in size from those perfect for a romantic just-for-two getaway to larger-scale vehicles with room for parents, kids, grandparents and more, CanaDream is all about luxury, quality, comfort, convenience and great driving experiences. Forget scrambling eggs over the campfire. Save the logs for toasting marshmallows and family sing-alongs and do the cooking in a beautifully outfitted gourmet kitchen, complete with a top-quality stove, fridge and freezer. When it’s time to come inside, you can relax in your cozy living room, then later, sink into the comfort of memory foam mattresses and hotelquality linens. This is what glamping is all about! And don’t worry about finding a kennel for that pooch who’s been your pandemic best buddy. CanaDream RVs are petfriendly, well-heated and air-conditioned. Thinking this all sounds great but worried about finding great campsites? No worries. CanaDream has your back by offering access to the CanaDream Club app, which provides exclusive access to over 1,000 Canadian campgrounds, activities, tours and attractions along your route. CanaDream’s Trip Planner tool allows you to customize your itinerary while staying within provincial guidelines, making your road trip simple and easy to plan.
Even if you’ve never driven anything larger than a sedan, you’ll feel totally confident behind the wheel of a CanaDream RV. Not only are they all topquality vehicles (your dad would be so envious!) but the CanaDream experts will also set you up with the perfect RV for your driving ability, walking you through every detail before you leave. Use their online tutorials to guide you every step of the way.
Says Klaus Gretzmacher, Vice President Tourism for CanaDream RV, a passionate outdoorsman and former World Cup Alpine ski racer:
“An RV vacation allows families, couples and friendship bubbles to discover the magic of our incredible provinces and territories through culture, adventure and nature with open roads and spectacular scenery leading the way.

Guests have access to the CanaDream Club for assistance in trip planning, including campsite booking options and discounts as well as recommended local attractions and tour operators. Now is the time to curate your own journey and rediscover Canada in a way that is safe, comfortable, convenient and affordable. Nature,
space and safety are the new luxuries in travel.”
