from Halifax to Vancouver with Montreal, Toronto, Jasper, Lake Louise & Banff

You’ll start at the Atlantic Ocean and end at the Pacific Ocean. Over 16 days, you’ll see the full breadth of our great country. From the rugged East Coast to lake country, to Canada’s Prairies, to remote glaciers atop mountains, to lush West Coast rainforests, you’ll see Canada in a way that few people ever have. The highlights of this trip are nine days of life-changing train travel and four nights total in the Rocky Mountain towns of Jasper, Lake Louise, and Banff. Over the course of this trip, you will travel through eight provinces, and places you would never dream existed: this is our Canadian Trip of a Lifetime.
