Train Holidays in Canada

Whether you’re whisking yourself off to Whistler, racing up to see the Rockies, or looking to combine the two on a longer cross-country style Canadian rail adventure – taking a train journey is a ‘must-do’ for anyone visiting this mammoth country. Our three rail experiences are all aboard the luxurious Rocky Mountaineer with its scenic routes through Whistler and on into the heart of the Canadian Rockies. We guarantee you an experience of a lifetime as you wind your way through the soaring mountain landscape, carve through deep gorges, and breeze through vast ranchland and prairie fields – all from the comfort of your seat.

The Rocky Mountaineer

Considered one of the most scenic rail offerings in the world, the luxurious Rocky Mountaineer is more than just a train. Taking you to, and through, some of the most spectacular natural sights Canada has to offer, this rail journey offers unparalleled access to the Canadian Rockies and connects its many quaint towns and absorbing national parks with ease.

The train itself is equipped with panoramic viewing carriages from which to take in the wondrous natural scenery and onboard, you will experience service that matches the quality of the views. Hot gourmet meals are also served throughout and whichever route you opt to take, we will of course, be sure to arrange your overnight accommodation and transfers too. We will also book all of your tickets in advance, so you needn’t worry about a thing.

Upgrading your trip
All of the above is available as part of the SilverLeaf Service that will be booked for you, but if you wished to really spoil yourself you can also upgrade to the GoldLeaf Service which features full-length panoramic domed windows on the upper deck, an outdoor viewing platform, an exclusive onboard dining room, and the most luxurious of hotel stays.
