Every Detail Covered From Start to Finish

The Best Way to See Canada, Coast to Coast

Whether you're seeking soft adventure or pure relaxation, our Canadian team is here to craft your ideal vacation, leaving you breathless, refreshed, and rekindled.

Two Trains, One Expansive Country

Canada is home to two trains: Rocky Mountaineer, which travels during daylight through the Rockies, and VIA Rail, which offers sleeper cabins and runs the full length of the country.

Soak Up the Slower Pace of Rail Travel

Whichever train you choose, enjoy the journey with glass-dome railcars, stunning scenery, chef-prepared meals, comfortable accommodations, and impeccable service.

Experience the Wild West Coast of Canada

With iconic cities, incredible wildlife, and remote yet easily accessible wilderness lodges, pair your rail journey with grizzly bear viewing, whale watching, or a luxury stay in nature.

Stand in Awe of the Canadian Rockies

Home to the tallest peaks in the Rocky Mountains, glacial lakes, icefields, and starry skies, a trip to Jasper, Banff, and Lake Louise is not to be missed. This is Canada in a postcard.

Watch Landscapes Unfold Before You

Continuing across Canada, travel through the expansive fields and endless skies of the prairies to Toronto's buzzing streets and Montreal & Quebec City's French culture.

Explore Canada's Storied Atlantic Coast

Arrive by rail to Nova Scotia and extend the journey to New Brunswick, Newfoundland, and PEI. Out here, the locals feel like family and the seafood comes freshly caught.

Thanks Canada Rail Vacations, especially to Karen for putting together and planning such a trouble free, smooth running package to make our visit even more unforgettable. Every place we have been to have been carved very deeply in our memories. We fell in love with the Rockies, its wild life, ice fields, beautiful towns and the friendly people.

This was an A++ experience! I'll definitely use Canada Rail Vacations for our next trip to Canada.

Paulina booked an amazing Canada for my family. This was so easy to arrange. I just told her what we wanted to do and the time frame we had. She got back to me within a day with an outline of what she had arranged and shortly after that, I had a finalized tour. The price was very reasonable for the tour. This was an A++ experience and I'll definitely use Canada Rail Vacations for our next trip to Canada.

I don't know how I will ever thank you all at Canada Rail Vacations for everything you did for us and making a trip of a life time surpass our wildest expectations!

We LOVED Canada and look forward to coming back and doing the same route in the spring or autumn. In fact we would even consider doing it again in winter as it was so stunningly beautiful. After booking the trip and advising the date we wanted, I was very impressed with Karen's professionalism and prompt service, nothing was too much trouble. When we requested things from her, all the information given to us was accurate and up to date.
