Day 4: Kelowna – Revelstoke National Park – Glacier National Park – Golden (B)

After breakfast, we embark on another day of sightseeing through the Trans-Canadian

Highway taking us through some of Canada’s awe-inspiring National Parks.

Our first park visit is to the mighty Revelstoke. Home to Canada's only inland cedar-

hemlock rainforest, Mount Revelstoke is the only national park in Canada where you can

summit a mountain five minutes from your vehicle. The Giant Cedars boardwalks invite us

for a relaxing stroll, or we can enjoy a panoramic view & the meadows of subalpine

wildflowers from the summit of Mount Revelstoke.

We then continue our drive on the Trans-Canadian Highway towards Glacier National

Park. Glacier National Park, not be confused with its twin in Montana, USA, offers us

exceptional alpine scenery and deep valleys filled with ancient forests. It’s a year-round

paradise for nature lovers.

Tonight, we overnight in the small mountain town of Golden.

Day 5: Golden – Lake Louise – Banff Area (B)

After breakfast we pass through Yoho National Park. Cree exclamation of awe, “Yoho”

applies perfectly to this park’s big peaks, expansive glaciers, and impressive waterfalls.

Add Yoho’s famous fossils and it’s easy to see why this park in the Canadian Rockies is

part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Although many of its highlights are accessible by

road, Yoho is also a hiker’s dream and a railway buff’s delight.

Continuing our journey this morning we visit one of the highlights of the Rocky

Mountains. Lake Louise is often referred to as the ‘Diamond in the Wilderness’, and it is

easy to see why. The region abounds with luxury ski resorts, shopping, fine dining and

spectacular scenery, from glaciers to waterfalls. The emerald colour of the water comes

from rock flour carried into the lake by melt-water from the glaciers that overlook the lake.

Enjoy a stroll around the lake taking everlasting photo memories.

We then leave Lake Louise for Canmore for our overnight.

Day 6: Banff Area (B) Today is a free day to relax and explore this incredible alpine region. Banff is only a short distance away from Canmore with regular shuttles operating every 30 minutes or why not journey out on one of Canmore’s famed walking trails ranging from short strolls to longer hikes through the Alpine scenery. Day 7: Banff Area – Columbia Icefields – Jasper Area (B) After breakfast, we start by heading north on the “Icefields Parkway”, an exciting excursion atop the Athabasca Glacier.

Our destination on this parkway, is the “Columbia Icefield”, the largest icefield in the Rocky Mountains of North America. Optional Tour: This tour takes visitors onto the surface of the Athabasca Glacier by Ice Explorer; a massive vehicle specially designed for glacial travel. An experienced driver-guide shares a wealth of fascinating information about glaciers, icefields and their impact on our environment during this one hour and 20 minute journey—Must be booked prior to departure.

snowboarding and, in Summer, mostly mountain biking. Its pedestrian village center has

won numerous design awards and Whistler has been voted among the top destinations in

North America by major ski magazines since the mid-1990s. Whistler’s urban landscape

was specifically designed to accommodate the natural environment. Many of Whistler's

bears have learned to do things like open car doors or hold spring-closed gates open so

they can reach food. Some have even learnt to open the newspaper bins!

Day 11: Whistler – Vancouver (B)

After breakfast we leave the resort town of Whistler behind us and continue straight

onwards towards Vancouver. Along Highway 99, between Horseshoe Bay & Squamish,

has to be one of the most beautiful roads in the area. With the ocean glimmering on the left

and the mountains rising on the right, it is truly enchanting.

province of British Columbia, it is well known for its majestic natural beauty, as it is nestled

between the Coast Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. It is frequently ranked as one of the

"best cities to live in" and is certainly a beautiful destination to visit.

glaciers and ready for you to take a float trip on it.

Day 16: Skagway—Inside Passage (B,L,D)

In 1897, gold stampeders from all over the world arrived in Skagway by steamship, bound

for the Dawson Gold Fields in Canada's Yukon Territory. It wasn't long before the rough-

and-tumble tent town was festooned with boardwalks, dance halls, inns and saloons. More

than 100 years later, Skagway still retains the feel of those Gold Rush days, though most

travelers now arrive by cruise.
