Is the canon ef 70 200mm f 4l is usm good for travel?

Good for some travel, but it isn't my first pick. The Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM is a telephoto. It's great for distant details, people across a square, and wildlife, and its stabilisation helps when you shoot handheld in a dim church or market. But it can't go wide. On an APS-C body it frames roughly like 112-320mm, so you'll miss most street scenes, landscapes and interiors.

If you want it anyway, pair it with a light APS-C body such as the Canon EOS 250D or Canon EOS 200D, and carry a wider lens too. It's a long lens, so weigh the whole setup honestly before you pack it.

For one-lens travel, I'd start with my picks by type on the travel page. A travel zoom covering wide to short telephoto will cover far more of your trip than this lens will.
