Canadian Rockies Splendour with Vancouver Visit
See the best of Canada on this nature and cultural tour departing from the UK! Breath in the mountains and lakes of the Canadian Rockies and visit vibrant Vancouver. Canada’s awe-inspiring Rocky Mountains and the stunning city of Vancouver combine to thrill you with scenic wonders. Your adventure begins in Banff. Explore the UNESCO-listed National Park in the heart of the Rockies, an incredible wilderness of glistening glaciers, ice-covered lakes and swathes of pine forest where wolves, elk and deer roam. Visit the glacial, jade-green waters of Lake Louise, said to be one of the most beautiful places in Canada, then head to Jasper to explore the world-renowned Jasper National Park, home to abundant wildlife, thundering waterfalls and Maligne Lake. You’ll then journey to Kamloops in British Columbia, where you’ll embark a Rockies river safari through Grizzly Bear Valley on the lookout for, you guessed it, grizzly bears! There’s a chance to go whale-watching in Victoria, before visiting Vancouver, where highlights include Gastown, Stanley Park and the beautiful harbour. You then finish your holiday off with extra two nights in the beautiful city of Vancouver. You may choose to board a hop-on-hop-off bus stopping at all the main attractions, which you can explore at your own pace. Alternatively, hire a bike and explore Stanley Park, visit Granville Market or enjoy one of the newer attractions in Vancouver, FlyOver Canada, a virtual ride in Canada Place.
