Overview
9 days from Calgary to Vancouver
Create incredible memories to last a lifetime traveling through the majestic Canadian Rockies! You’ll overnight in Calgary, Banff National Park, Jasper National Park, Kamloops, Vancouver, and Victoria. Along the way, you’ll witness spectacular scenery and visit western Canada’s most famous cities. Take an orientation tour in Calgary, home of the world-famous Calgary Stampede, and then head to Banff National Park, Canada’s first and most popular national park. Banff is known for its incredible natural beauty and abundant wildlife. Have time to hike, horseback ride, relax at the hot springs or perhaps join an optional helicopter excursion for breathtaking aerial views. Journey to Lake Louise, with its turquoise water that reflects the surrounding mountains and glaciers. Travel the scenic Icefield Parkway stopping to take a thrilling ride aboard an Ice Explorer on ice that’s 750 feet thick! Continue to the vast wilderness and majestic peaks of Jasper National Park, the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies. Go on a hike, stroll the townsite, or join an optional float trip down the Athabasca River. Then it’s time to board the Rocky Mountaineer for a 2-day, all-daylight journey from Jasper National Park to the vibrant city of Vancouver. This train ride travels through stunning scenery and takes you back to a time when getting to your destination was part of the fun! Along the way, pass Mount Robson, the Canadian Rockies’ highest mountain, wild rivers, magnificent mountain ranges, and turbulent Hell’s Gate. More beautiful scenery awaits on your ferry crossing from Vancouver through the picturesque Gulf Islands to Victoria. On the way into Victoria, enjoy sightseeing that includes a trip to world-famous Butchart Gardens with its 55 acres of floral displays, then have time to explore this charming city. Take a ferry back across the Strait of Georgia to Vancouver where your journey ends, but the memories of this value-minded vacation with its awe-inspiring sights and once-in-a-lifetime experiences will last forever!
