Looking at returning to Canada in late June and most of July to visit in-laws after an 8 year hiatus.
Three times previously I have flown into Vancouver and drove through Whistler/Jasper/Banff to Calgary then flew on Toronto. The first two times were very quick, two night rushed efforts. The most recent time I was fortunate to take my time spending 2 nights in most destinations (including Victoria).
This time around the in-laws have tentatively agreed to fly over to meet the family in Vancouver and we all do a similar drive. They haven't done it and my kids have never seen any of it. I'm trying to think about what is an appropriate amount of time to spend doing the drive, which really depends on what places are being visited.
I have found memories of Vancouver and would really like to spend sufficient time there. Whether it's feasible to do a day trip to Victoria or not. The other places like Whistler/Jasper/Banff etc could probably be done with a single night (maybe one of those having two nights to ease the pressure of rushing.
Anyway welcome any tips or suggestions etc.
