I set all my points of interests and destinations as favorites and away I go. I used a standalone Garmin GPS unit because I already had one. Most people are familiar with Google Maps so it could be an easy choice to make. However, something to consider is if you feel you will not have continuous data service then you may need to rely on downloaded Google Maps as backup. The reason is the learning curve with something new. I would suggest you use whichever you are used to. Is it better to use a gps like tomtom over google maps? having a 18 month old on this road trip will definitely be a challenge but thats why i am not in a hurry as i expect to have to take a few breaks due to the baby. Thank you for the details! this will help a lot. Would encourage everyone to take that road trip. Driving through the Praries may not appear to be scenic to many but I've looked at it as a learning experience to understand the nature of this country and then that scene becomes interesting.

In Winnipeg take a stroll at the Forks.īut do appreciate all the trees and going up and down hills in Northern Ontario because once you cross the border you will then realize the beauty you just left behind. Kenora has a big Muskie to get a photo. Before entering TBay, visit the Terry Fox memorial. At the Soo, a nice place to stroll after dinner is the Boardwalk. I used a car GPS.įor sightseeing, there really isn't much time during your daytime travelling hours. But do check your oil level each morning. In your route planning, use Google Maps to identify where gas stations are located. Only time I filled up twice was between the Soo and Tbay at Wawa and Terrace Bay. As a rule when I stop for lunch that's when I fill up gas. I had used and Expedia to book my hotels in advance as I was on the road for three weeks to west coast then back through the USA. Settle in and then go for an early dinner after which you explore the city for as long as you wish on a summer evening.įor accommodation, an advantage of staying in a bigger city is having more choice. My routine was to leave my hotel in the morning by 7:30am so that I can arrive at my destination by 5:00pm to check in. Your stops will most likely be dictated by the baby because of the long duration just sitting in the car seat strapped in and not being held. The daily distance to travel means driving time of at least 7 hours each day then add to that time the stops for gas, food, washroom and rest/stretching/sightseeing. Day 1: TO -> Sault St Marie = 700km + Overnight Stayĭay 2: Sault -> TBay = 700km + Overnight Stayĭay 3: TBay -> Winnipeg = 700km + Overnight Stayĭay 4: Winnipeg -> Regina = 600km + Overnight Stayĭay 5: Regina -> Calgary final destination = 700km
