For savvy travelers, exploring Canada on a budget doesn’t mean any less fun or unique experiences. The majestic mountain ranges, sparkling lakes and abundant wildlife are open to all, while the famed Canadian hospitality can be found in cheap diners every bit as much as swanky high-end restaurants. When thinking about where to stay, consider cheap guesthouses and vacation rentals, as well as hotels.

For a spot of culture on the cheap, Canada’s major cities are filled with public art and open spaces for people watching, while art galleries and museums often have weekday discounts that help to stretch your travel budget that little bit further.
