Western Wilderness

10 Days/ 9 Nights

Discover Canada’s Western Wilderness from the comfort of deluxe daylight sightseeing trains.

Jasper to Prince Rupert aboard VIA Rail Canada’s newest deluxe rail service,
 the Skeena in Totem Deluxe Class, offering   spectacular viewing from a “wraparound” panoramic viewing car. 
Plus stays in Vancouver, Banff, Jasper, Prince George and Prince Rupert.

To travel to a place where two such scenic rail trips can be experienced within days of each other is remarkable.  When your time between trains is spent in the beauty of the Canadian Rockies, in the freewheeling manner that comes with having a self drive car; staying in lovely resorts in beautiful settings, what you have is a perfect vacation.
