Rocky Mountaineer Vacations offers over 70 unique Canadian vacation packages and four spectacular train trips through British Columbia, Alberta and the Canadian Rockies. Best known for the world-acclaimed Rocky Mountaineer® train, a two-day, all daylight rail journey through the Canadian Rockies, the company also offers trips onboard the Whistler Mountaineer™ train, a three-hour experience between North Vancouver and Whistler, BC.

 


The Rocky Mountaineer Train

 

Travelling onboard the Rocky Mountaineer is an unforgettable experience, considered by many to be, a trip of a lifetime. The two-day rail journey recaptures the romance of rail travel as it follows the historic train route constructed over 100 years ago through Canada’s West and the Canadian Rockies, uniting the country. The entire train ride takes place during daylight hours to ensure you enjoy every minute of the breathtaking scenery of glacier-fed lakes, majestic mountains ranges and ferocious rivers. 

 

 

The Rocky Mountaineer train travels in both eastbound and westbound directions between the beautiful coastal city of Vancouver, British Columbia, the resort town of Whistler, British Columbia, and Jasper or Banff and Calgary, Alberta.

 


The Whistler Mountaineer Train

 

The route delivers the unique blend of contrasts that the Sea-to-Sky region is famous for: cities and old-growth forests, bustling action and natural serenity, deep valleys and snow-capped mountain peaks, seascapes and mountain views.

 

 

You have the choice of enjoying a trip on the Whistler Mountaineer independently or in conjunction with several different vacation packages. Some will include a ride on the Fraser Discovery Route, a two-day, all daylight journey between Whistler and Jasper, Alberta.
