Trans Canada Experience

Overview

Experience the best of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, including stays in picturesque Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper on this popular First Passage to the West route.

Your journey commences in Vancouver as you board the Rocky Mountaineer and enjoy daylight train travel through some of the most spectacular areas in Western Canada. Once in Alberta, you will embark on a tour of the Canadian Rockies, culminating in a visit to the Columbia Icefield including the Ice Explorer and Glacier Skywalk experience. Explore Jasper before boarding VIA Rail’s famous “Canadian” travelling east through the grain fields of Saskatchewan and the lake regions of Manitoba.

On arrival, explore the cosmopolitan, urban and lively city of Toronto as well as enhancing your experience with a day tour to one of the great wonders of the world, Niagara Falls.

From Toronto you follow the shores of Lake Ontario on to Montreal. Montréal is a big, busy, exhilarating city, with so much to see and do. There’ll be plenty of long walks and bike rides, picnics at the park, street art hunts and time to discover the city’s many treasures. 

From Montreal, you board VIA Rail's Ocean Train and enjoy the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick landscapes before arriving in Halifax. Spend the rest of the days exploring this small Atlantic coastal city.
