Driven by a blend of patriotism and the need to stretch their dollars amidst economic uncertainty, Canadians are increasingly looking to travel closer to home, causing a significant surge in demand for rental vehicles in some regions.

This trend is particularly evident at Alberta-based Squirrel Vans which is witnessing a 50% spike in camper van bookings compared to the previous year. Their camper vans, often chosen for "glamping" experiences in popular destinations like Jasper and Banff, offer a self-contained travel solution with kitchenettes, beds, and showers, priced between $250 and $350 per night during the summer peak. This price point is proving attractive to budget-conscious travellers, especially when compared to the cost of short-term or hotel rentals in the same areas.
