Tour Canada on the famous Canadian train

Relive the romance of train travel on a classic trans-Canada journey: the Canadian train tour. The Canadian, VIA Rail’s flagship train, takes 4 days to travel between Toronto and the Rockies, unveiling the full breadth and beauty of this awesome country.

Picture yourself sipping luscious Canadian wine as you watch vast, fiery prairie sunsets, or pass dense forests reflected in the Great Lakes. On these Canadian train tours you can slumber in the cosy sleeper cars after a gourmet meal, and awake to see the towering peaks of the Rocky Mountains veiled in mist. As the train winds through the majestic Rockies, look out for incredible wildlife.

Explore the hot springs, fascinating hoodoos and other natural features of Banff National Park. These epic Canadian train trips are a highlight of the holiday.
