FOR TRAVEL TO CANADA:

Canadian law requires that all persons entering Canada carry proof of citizenship and identity. A valid U.S. passport, passport card, or NEXUS card satisfies these requirements for U.S. citizens.

Children under 16 only need proof of U.S. citizenship (i.e., a birth certificate). Completion of the Consent Letter for Minor Travel to Canada satisfies this requirement for travelers under the age of 16.

NOTE: All travelers under 18 are required to complete a Consent Letter for Minor Travel to Canada if they are travelling with a person other than their parents or legal guardian.

This is a mandatory form if a minor child is travelling with a person other than their parents or legal guardian:

The adult who is not the parent or legal guardian of the child should have written permission from the parents or guardians to supervise the child. The permission letter should include addresses and telephone numbers where the parents or legal guardians can be reached.

The letter does not need to be certified. A photocopy of the parents’ or legal guardian’s signed passports or national identity cards should be attached to the letter.

Note: The border services officer may not ask to see these documents when the child enters Canada. However, it is strongly recommended you bring them, in case you are asked. The minor child will not be admitted to Canada if the officer is not convinced that the parents or legal guardian have authorized their stay.

Hummingbird Student Tours partners with bus companies worldwide in order to provide our clients with the most comfortable travel experience possible. Please note that these companies abide by certain rules and regulations put in place by local authorities and agencies, which limit the number of consecutive hours bus drivers can operate their buses. Hummingbird Student Tours takes these policies into account when carefully crafting detailed itineraries for our clients, and may integrate walking tours into itineraries to offset driver hours. Please note that walking tours will proceed safely rain or shine.

While we hope it will be sunny and warm every day while you are traveling, please keep in mind this itinerary is Rain or Shine.  

We recommend keeping a dry pair of socks in your backpack, just in case you encounter a puddle! And, definitely, pack a raincoat or poncho and umbrella!
