FAQs
- New York City: What does a modular trip mean? A modular trip means fellow travellers will join and leave at various locations. There’ll be some goodbyes, sure, but there’ll also be plenty of hellos with new like-minded travellers.
- Montreal: How long are the drives in Canada? Canada is a large country, which means this trip involves some long journeys on the coach. This is a great chance for you to sit back, relax and enjoy the stunning scenery and get to know your fellow travellers.
- Montreal: What is the drinking age in Canada? The legal drinking age in Quebec & Alberta is 18. And in Ontario & British Columbia, it’s 19.
- Montreal: What should I pack? You’ll be walking and hiking when you visit the National Parks on this trip. So, pack clothes for outdoor activities and good hiking shoes too.
- Montreal: What will the weather be like? In Canada, the warmest months are June to August. Think sunny days, pleasant temperatures but also a lot of rain. It’s always a good idea to bring a warm windproof jacket. And no matter which time of year you decide to travel, it can get quite cool at night (especially outside of the cities), so we recommend that you bring a warm jacket or fleece.
