Canada's Rocky Mountaineer

The magnificent Rocky Mountains are Canada’s crowning glory: home to bears and majestic elk, with vast forests that seem to go on forever. Opaque lakes of stunning emerald green reflect the magnificent scenery like no other place on earth. Carpets of wild flowers bedeck the green meadows spread beneath the towering glaciers - huge expanses of brilliant white ice and snow, contrasting with the muted greys and pinks of the jagged peaks. We stay in Banff, the very heart of the mountains, then travel along a monument to man’s engineering prowess, the ‘road of steel’ that is the great Trans-Canadian railway, on the incredible Rocky Mountaineer train.

Finally, we arrive in Vancouver, nestling beside the immense majesty of the Pacific Ocean, which ranks as one of the world’s most naturally beautiful panoramas. With its gleaming glass skyscrapers reflected in the azure-blue ocean, Canada’s third largest city is a fascinating and cosmopolitan metropolis encircled by water and mountains.
