Canadian train

This Seattle-to-Banff journey cuts through the heart of the Rockies, and explores how a country came to be.

A journey available from Private Rail Cars or Train Chartering. Linking Toronto and Vancouver, the Canadian (R) is one of the world’s legendary long haul journeys. Whether for its breathtaking landscapes, its attentive and courteous service or its outstanding dining, this train has inspired decades of fond memories for more than 100,000 travellers every year. Between 2010 and 2012, more than $22 million has been invested in its modernization. Photo: VIA Rail

One reason why we don't see many millennials, or even Canadians for that matter, riding the train is because it's pretty expensive. Right now, you can score major savings on Rocky Mountaineer tours. This is a great opportunity to see a side of Canada you've always wanted and to take a multi-day train journey like no other!
