For many travellers, Rocky Mountaineer is the ultimate rail experience in Canada, and arguably one of the world’s greatest rail journeys. Travelling through the heart of Western Canada by daylight, it showcases the ever-changing views of soaring mountain peaks, glacier-fed rivers, emerald forests and some of the country’s most spectacular landscapes.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Rocky Mountaineer may be the highlight of your trip, but it’s far from the whole story. As the ideal starting point for a broader Canadian itinerary, it opens the door to endless adventures before and after your rail journey.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

At Adventure World, our Destination Specialists create bespoke journeys that combine Rocky Mountaineer with the destinations and experiences that matter most to you, delivering a holiday as unique as you are.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Rocky Mountaineer is often the starting point for a broader Western Canada adventure. The beauty of a tailor-made itinerary is the flexibility to shape your holiday around your interests, pace and travel style.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Unlike traditional overnight rail journeys, Rocky Mountaineer travels exclusively during daylight hours, allowing you to take in every spectacular view while enjoying comfortable hotel accommodation each evening. This unique approach means the rail journey seamlessly becomes part of a larger itinerary, with opportunities to explore before, after and between rail segments.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Connecting some of Western Canada\u2019s most iconic destinations, including Vancouver, Banff and Jasper, Rocky Mountaineer provides the perfect foundation for a personalised holiday.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

For some, that means extending their stay in the Canadian Rockies to discover wildlife, turquoise lakes, mountain trails and charming towns. Others may choose to build their trip around seasonal experiences, from wildlife viewing in spring and scenic drives in summer to the golden colours of autumn.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Whatever your travel style, Rocky Mountaineer is more than a rail journey. It\u2019s the gateway to a customised Canadian holiday designed around you.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
