Overview
Trans Canada train journeys conjure up notions of classic rail adventures. And this year we have significantly expanded our Trans Canada rail options to give travelers even more opportunity to enjoy this wonderful experience.
Package range in length from a compact 4 night, three day straight shot from Vancouver to Toronto or Toronto to Vancouver to a leisurely 17 day trip with two days on the Rocky Mountaineer and nights and days on the ViaRail Canadian in a private bedroom, stays at historic Fairmont hotels and resorts, and a concluding, or commencing, night in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
In between there are 7, 12 and 16 night trips that combine the Canadian Rockies with train travel and big cities. The 12 and 16 day trips include two trains: the Rocky Mountaineer and The ViaRail Canadian.
We have included seven Trans Canada train options. Some go between Vancouver and Toronto, others include Montreal and/or Quebec City. And some go all the way from Vancouver to Halifax, a journey of more than 6000 kilometers.
These packages are available with starts in Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal or Halifax.
