Your itinerary is personalized to suit your dreams and needs:
Peaks, valleys, and emerald-green lakes will fill your camera's memory card as you travel by train from the Canadian Rockies to the West Coast. Explore Whistler, Lake Louise, Banff and Jasper.
Find out what is included in your trip and have all your questions answered. We are here to help.
Your trip begins with a journey from Calgary to Banff National Park. We’ve planned every detail – from your excursions to the best dining experiences. The town of Banff is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with the charm of a small mountain community. Breathe in the fresh Canadian Rockies air – you’ve arrived!
Fill your lungs with cool, fresh Rocky Mountain air and head out for a day of exploration in Banff National Park.
After a morning in Banff, travel to Lake Louise. Whether the sun is shining on the water or an ethereal mist hangs over the surrounding peaks and glaciers, the magic of this place is unmistakable.
Travel along the spine of the Rockies on one of the most beautiful routes in the world – the Icefields Parkway. Watch for cascading waterfalls, dramatic peaks and local wildlife, like mountain goats, elk and bears.
Jasper National Park – the largest park in the Canadian Rockies – is one of our favourite destinations. Spend the day exploring one of Canada’s most authentic mountain towns where the wild never left the wilderness.
All Aboard! Your train journey begins as the Rocky Mountaineer pulls away from Jasper. Travel into the sprawling wilderness of British Columbia and keep your eyes open for wildlife.
After your overnight stay in Quesnel, wake up refreshed and ready for another day of breathtaking beauty. This evening, your train arrives in the mountain resort of Whistler.
Step back onto the Rocky Mountaineer this afternoon. Travel the Sea to Sky corridor on this half-day train journey to the beautiful city of Vancouver.
Bid farewell to Canada's mountain peaks and friendly faces as you depart Vancouver.

Moose Hotel and Suites is steps away from downtown Banff. Amenities include a spa, indoor pool, sauna, and on-site restaurant. Take a dip in one of the rooftop hot pools – the perfect place for checking out the spectacular mountain views.
Located in Banff National Park, the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is surrounded by soaring mountain peaks, a sparkling turquoise lake, and the impressive Victoria Glacier. Explore the area’s outstanding beauty on horseback, or paddle on the lake in a canoe.
Nestled within Alberta’s magnificent Jasper National Park, the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery and plenty of wildlife. Amenities include a heated outdoor pool, world-class golf course, and award-winning spa.
With its unique location atop Canada Place, the Pan Pacific Vancouver rises high above the cruise ship terminal and the Convention Centre. The hotel offers luxury accommodation in the heart of downtown.
Here are some of the most popular ways to personalize this journey.
Ask us to pair you up with your style of cruise and discover Alaska's spectacular Inside Passage.
Whether it's a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or the fulfillment of a lifelong goal, our team is ready to make it a celebration to remember. From arranging a bottle of champagne to putting together a helicopter picnic for two on top of a mountain at sunset, we're ready to make your dreams a reality.
For the days you're not onboard the train, ask us about adding a car rental and exploring on your own. We'll provide points of interest, admission to attractions, and information on all the best places to visit along the way.
From the snow capped mountain peaks to the vibrant lakes, dense forest, and alpine meadows you will not find a more diverse landscape with so much to offer! Skiing and hiking are just a couple of my favorite things; there is no other place I would rather call home.
