Vast and beautiful, the Canadian Rockies mean jagged peaks and snow-capped mountains, a command of clear blue sky, crystal lakes and untouched forests... where autumn brings fewer people and curious animals (bear, elk, deer, bighorn sheep and mountain goats) back into the open... Aspen yellows, glaciers and icefields... and a quieter Banff village of museums, walking paths and hot springs... And yet, in the Pacific Northwest lies stunning coastal scenery... Mt. Hood, the highest point in Oregon... shimmering ferns and golden-red leaves... peaceful escapes in autumn’s cool... within easy reach of city pleasures (hip culture and impressive wines, coffee, cuisine)... cider and food pairings, floral landscapes... ferries and a float plane ride... touching down in Vancouver’s Coal Harbour for a treetop adventure, a public market brimming with tastes to explore... and views to adore.

8 DAYS FROM $3,690*
Canadian Rockies Six resort nights in the center of Canada’s Rocky Mountain national parks mean getting an up-close experience of extraordinary nature and stays at a Lake Louise chateau, a rustically elegant lodge and a Scottish castle. This “Best of” tour offers the best of two worlds – Canada’s national parks and the amenities of its best park hotels... Start at the Delta Lodge at Kananaskis, a prelude
to your journey through Kicking Horse Pass and the spiral railway tunnels, and glorious Moraine Lake in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, then head to The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, with its stunning views of the turquoise glacier lake... along the Icefields Parkway to Jasper National Park and The Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge... seeing Jasper Your Way by choosing from a menu of optional activities, like nature walks, whitewater rafting, and a wilderness discovery... climbing Athabasca Glacier in an Ice Explorer... to the baronial grandeur of The Fairmont Banff Springs in Banff National Park. Here you have a free day to enjoy the town... the park... or the amenities of the resort as you please. And to finish – a farewell reception and dinner where the views – and the food – are a feast for the soul.
