Road to the Rockies and Alaskan Explorer

Customer reviews

Explore the spectacular Rockies on this scenic journey amid the mountain peaks and verdant forests of western Canada.

A leisurely road trip will lead you to Vancouver, from where you travel on to the glistening Alaskan waters for a week-long cruise through the breathtaking Inside Passage.

The Icefields Parkway drive from Banff to Jasper is voted by many as the world's most spectacular mountain drive. There are over 100 glaciers lining the Parkway and 230 kms of continuous World Heritage site scenery completely protected in two National Parks, Jasper and Banff.

The roadways also present plenty of opportunity for picture stops and wildlife spotting along the way.

Escorted Journey

See the sights at a laid-back pace. On these tours you'll rarely spend more than three or four hours travelling a day and there will usually be a few days for you to simply stay put and relax. Typically, any walking during the excursions will be at a leisurely pace and will amount to just a few hours of the course of the day.
