Canada travel hints & tips
Have an awesome time while on your trip but remember to respect the local culture in Canada. Here are a few Canada travel tips and snippets of advice to help you with any possible culture shock!
Driving
Drive on the right hand side of the road if you’re hiring a vehicle - not the left hand side like in New Zealand!
Respect for the environment
Avoid littering – make sure you put your rubbish in the bin and avoid dropping it in the street or out of car windows. If you can’t find a rubbish bin Canadians will expect you to hold on to your rubbish until you can find one.
Bargaining
Bargaining for a better price is not common in Canada.
Tax
Be aware that GST (tax) is added at the cash register, and not to the price tag of the goods you are buying!
