The train takes routes you cannot access by car, so you’re seeing unique scenery — like when I travelled on Rocky Mountaineer through the Spiral Tunnels. You can relax and take it all in without worrying about long drives or waiting around in airports.
I always recommend the GoldLeaf upgrade on Rocky Mountaineer! The outdoor viewing area was my favourite part, taking in the golden larch trees during October fall foliage season was really memorable. Many people splurge on that upgrade and save on hotels as our comfort hotels are central so you’re always in the best location.
All the logistics: where to go, how to get there, when to travel, how to arrange tours etc. I let them know that with us they don’t have to worry about those details as we’ve got everything covered! And we offer plenty of recommendations as we’re all based in Canada. We offer peace of mind.
Nothing compares to the beauty of the Rockies in winter! There are so many unique experiences like walking on Lake Louise when it’s frozen and seeing the frozen waterfalls at Johnston Canyon.
