Take My Advice! Skip Kamloops on Your Vancouver-Banff Road Trip 🙅

🚫 Avoid staying in Kamloops at all costs—it's simply not worth your time! Instead, make your pitstops at Salmon Arm (on the way to Banff) and Kelowna (on the return trip)—no backtracking needed! Kamloops might sound poetic Sweet Dew City), but reality is harsh: ☀️ Scorching hot in summer, barren hills, and zero charm—you’ll want to speed through! The Ideal Vancouver-Banff Loop Route 📍 Outbound: Stay in Salmon Arm (Shuswap Lake) 🏨 Prestige Harborfront Resort Lakeside location with a serene fisherman’s wharf for sunset strolls. 🍦 Must-Visit: D Dutchmen Dairy Canada’s #1 ice cream (no exaggeration!) A Dutch-family-run dairy farm with: Heavenly ice cream flavors 🍨 Fresh dairy products 🥛 Petting zoo & cow barn for kids 🐄 Missing this? That’s a road-trip crime! 📍 Return Trip: Kelowna (Okanagan Valley) 🍇 Why Kelowna? "Too far for a dedicated trip, but a perfect detour!"
