Canadians and other insightful people, I need some suggestions. I'm going to be touring around Canada with some traveling friends from England and I don't know what to do for transportation.

We met traveling New Zealand. It's alot easier traveling that country because there's these hop-on hop-off buses that span throughout the country. Canada and the U.S. are just too damn big I don't think they have such a thing. The U.S. is something like 39 times the size of NZ; and Canada's bigger yet.

Plans aren't final, but we're thinking Western Canada. I could drive and it helps that I'm from Minnesota which is basically dead center of Canada; it'd be different if I lived in Georgia and was going to drive from there. But still, Minnesota to the west coast is a long ways! I'm guessing driving ourselves would cost about the same or less by the time we bought all these bus/train passes, plus we'd probably have to rely on taxis which add up fast.

I originally didn't want to drive, but I don't want to have to rely on timetables and routes of public transport. It'd be nice to be able to go where you want. Even though I'm not looking forward to the directions and driving through new cities. I don't want to get everyone lost!

Any thoughts?

If you take public transportation, you'll have to taxi or bus. There isn't any trains in the west. At least there wern't any in Alberta for passengers.

It all depends on you really. You can get just about anywhere on the bus or taxi. But it'll cost money and you'll have to rely on the bus times and routes.

If you're touring, you'll probably be fine bussing. They stay mostly on main routes and you'll be able to get just about everywhere.

But, if you drive, you'll have space for you own stuff and can come and go when you please.

So, again, it really depends on you.
