Summary & Photos

Experience the Canadian Rocky Mountains from the famous Rocky Mountaineer Train.

A 6-day, panoramic adventure you'll never forget.

(Our Personal Trip Advisors can customize your trip
in any way you want.)
When you step onto the Rocky Mountaineer train in Vancouver or Calgary, and close the door behind you…you'll be entering a world that most people only get to dream about.

Free from the noise and congestion of cities and highways, you can sit back and watch as you weave through unspoiled forests, over pristine rivers and up into the Rocky Mountains themselves.

This is a trip most people get to experience only through coffee table books and TV travel shows.

Like you, they have seen photos of the high, snow-capped peaks of the Rockies, and of the extraordinary turquoise waters of Lake Louise. They have seen film of Elk, Bears and Bald Eagles in their wilderness homes.

But photos and films can't even touch the real experience of this legendary, 6-day adventure.

Nothing compares to standing on the Rocky Mountaineer's outside viewing platform, feeling the wind in your hair and taking in the extraordinary grandeur of the Rocky Mountains first hand.

I have tried to relive every moment and still find new things to remember, realizing even more how breathtaking it was. I am very happy that we decided not to ‘not have any goals.’ This allowed us to see and cherish every single moment and properly file it in our memories." John Min

Imagine yourself on the famous Rocky Mountaineer train.
There is something uniquely liberating and romantic about a trip by train, especially when it takes you through some of the most beautiful and dramatic landscape in the world.

You're far from the bustle of daily life, but can still enjoy the luxuries of gourmet meals and white glove service.

"The Rocky Mountaineer was a once in a lifetime experience and first class all the way. I must have gained 10 pounds just in those two days. What a magnificent country you have and what wonderful people." Rosalie and Raymond Reynolds

While your days will be filled with the ever-changing scenery that unfolds between Vancouver and Calgary – from the desert of British Columbia's interior to the darkness of the Spiral Tunnels and the mighty peaks of the Rockies themselves – you will overnight in Kamloops, Banff and Lake Louise.

Each of these overnight destinations is steeped in history and offers its own unique scenic pleasures.
