TAG: Road Trips

We believe a good old road trip is one of the most amazing experiences you can enjoy with your family! Usually one of the most affordable as well!

In this TAG we share our own experiences and itineraries. Although most travel will be from Vancouver to somewhere, we are not limiting this TAG to British Columbia only. For example, we’ve recently had one of the most amazing road trips to Havana, Cuba while staying at a resort in Varadero.

In each post we will share things to do, places to visit, tips on how to entertain your kids, packing lists, things you should know before you go, gear reviews, places we have stayed at, on the road food options and maybe even some on-the-go recipes…

Get ready for a LOT of outdoors! …and stay tuned to find out the exact way we travel and explore!

Enjoy,

.
