Vacation planning should create anticipation—stirring up that special feeling of excitement as you create an itinerary that reflects how you will spend a rare expanse of leisure time. Understanding that vacation planning should be more than reviewing a routine list of destinations and activities, the newly re-launched TravelAlberta.com offers Canada travellers inspiring content and interactive planning tools that can’t help but trigger excitement about an Alberta vacation.

Visitors to Travel Alberta’s new website, TravelAlberta.com, find much more than the guidebook-style destination website. Instead, they find a story.
