Calgary is often combined with stops across the border in the United States and Mexico. Good idea to double-check the plug types — they can be quite different from Canada.

Bear in mind the mains in Calgary doesn’t always match our 230 V back home, so you’ll likely need a voltage converter.
Don’t forget to check the voltage label on your device before use overseas. If it’s stamped ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’, it’ll work in most places without a converter.
