As someone who loves a quiet trail and a well-marked path, I’ve found that some of the most breathtaking landscapes are the ones that invite you to simply sit, observe, and breathe.

Banff was probably the stop on our cross-Canada Contiki trip that I was most looking forward to visiting.

It was somewhere I’ve always wanted to visit, but never got around to it. Now I’d be driving through National Parks and seeing iconic Canadian landscapes with other solo travellers.
