Description
Prepare for awe-inspiring countryside; boundless prairies, dense pine forests, glittering lakes and stately snow-capped mountains. Two of Canada’s great cities - Vancouver, with its historic streets and elegant parks, and Toronto, with its iconic skyline and miles of shopping streets - are separated by more than 4,000km of awe-inspiring countryside; boundless prairies, dense pine forests, glittering lakes and stately snow-capped mountains. This epic distance, impractical to drive, is best travelled by train, enjoying the relaxation of ‘The Canadian’ and the luxury of the Rocky Mountaineer, which has offered an iconic vantage point on the Rockies’ amazing scenic panoramas for more than 20 years. Our odyssey includes two nights in beautiful Banff and includes a day trip to Niagara Falls.
