Canadian Bus Trip Vacation – Value & Experience
In deciding what to do for summer vacation last year, friends Mark, Karen and their daughter, decided on a Canadian Bus Trip where they could relax, and let Starr, a local bus tour company, do the planning and driving.

The summers are just wonderful with many free outdoor events. We take advantage of outdoor and indoor concerts in the afternoons and evenings. Reasonably priced venues at $5-$20 for

During the summer many venues offer free music from Continue reading
