Go RVing Canada: Your one-stop shop for RV info

The recreational vehicle, better known as an RV, has become a staple of adventurers everywhere across Ontario and beyond. Affordable and fun, with modern amenities and the complete freedom to explore whenever and wherever you want—we can see why the RV lifestyle is so popular! In fact, the RV industry is booming thanks to travellers looking for a unique and affordable way to enjoy new experiences in Northern Ontario's scenic wilderness. 

Production of these innovative camper vans originates as far back as 1910, when North Americans were beginning to embrace the automobile and paved roads made travelling a delight. In fact, one of the earliest RVs, the Pierce-Arrow “Touring Landau,” made its debut at Madison Square Garden in New York, where much was made of its futuristic, on-board bathroom. The RV has come a long way since then (laundry facilities, in-floor heating, and outdoor patios, anyone?) and tons of resources are now available for Canadian RV lovers--even if you're a beginner.

We spoke with the folks at Go RVing Canada about the latest RV trends and why the site is an essential destination for both new and experienced travellers looking for the perfect getaway.

What is Go RVing all about, and who is it for?

Go RVing Canada was founded in 1997 by the Go RVing Canada coalition, which consists of RV manufacturers, component suppliers, dealers, and regional RV associations. Headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Go RVing Canada is a non-profit association dedicated to promoting the RVing lifestyle, and everything it involves. From purchasing or renting an RV, to helping first time RV adventurers know what to pack, and detailing the best places to camp, this organization of RV lovers is helping to build a community of new and seasoned RV enthusiasts and is dedicated to providing them with the best RVing resources. That means lucky travellers who live in Ontario or are planning a trip here have a rich, comprehensive site to help plan a vacation, add to a bucket list, and prepare for an adventure!
