Rocky Mountaineer
Our favourite way to see Canada is by rail. You can explore beautiful Ontario and Quebec relaxing in VIA Rail business class, as you glide between historic Quebec City and Montreal, and Toronto, Niagara Falls and the stunning Thousand Islands. Or for that ultimate experience, board the renowned Rocky Mountaineer for a rail journey of a lifetime through the Canadian Rockies. Marvel at majestic peaks and lush valleys through expansive windows while enjoying gourmet meals. Sip wine, learn local history, and connect with nature on the outdoor platform. This luxurious glass-dome train offers Western Canada’s beauty, impeccable service, and social opportunities, creating an unforgettable journey and lasting memories.
Bear in Jasper National Park in Canada. Alberta, Canada.
The western province Alberta is home to some of Canada’s most iconic sights – sweeping prairies, striking mountain ranges, crystal-clear lakes and lively cities. Among our top lake picks: the turquoise brilliance of Peyto Lake, the reflective beauty of Moraine Lake framed by the Ten Peaks, the tranquil allure of Waterton Lake, the picturesque charm of Maligne Lake and Spirit Island, and of course, the legendary Lake Louise. In Calgary, embrace that Wild West spirit – visit the Alberta Boot Company for handcrafted cowboy boots, or explore the Stampede Park for a taste of cowboy culture. Head to Edmonton for the vintage charm of Old Strathcona, and don’t miss the thrill of a classic Canadian ice-hockey match.
Peggy’s Cove Nova Scotia
To the east, Atlantic Canada boasts windswept coastlines, mouth-watering regional cuisine, vibrant maritime culture and that ever-friendly Canadian welcome. With direct flights from London and Dublin to Halifax, Nova Scotia and St. John’s, Newfoundland, this enchanting region is closer than you might think. Enjoy whale-watching and bird-spotting, lobster feasts and winery tours, picturesque villages and stunning national parks. All of it steeped in a rich, seafaring history that gives the region its unique charm.
You can discover the open spaces and open hearts of Canada in your own way. Choose an escorted tour to ensure that you don’t miss a thing as you’re driven around all the sights with a dedicated tour manager. Or let us create a rail itinerary tailormade for you, to enjoy the speed and ease of the train.
