- MMaarten· April 10th, 2025Sublime trip! The train ride was an absolute wonder and one of my bucketlist things to do. Jasper was still recovering from the fires of a year ago but proved a wonderful host- hiking there was great. I loved Banff- great excursions there and the road to there was amazing. Definitely one to do if you wish to do a good overview -trip of the National Parks and have a little freedom too.Show moreTrip date: March 2025

During the winter season, we only offer the VIA Rail tour departing from Vancouver, which includes must-visit locations in the Rockies before the end of April. The VIA train will depart from Vancouver to Jasper. After spending two leisurely days in Jasper, you will take a shuttle bus to Banff and join our bus tour the following day.
