Canada by Train

There is no better way to experience Canada than by train. Discover destinations that appeal to urban explorers, nature enthusiasts, and everyone in-between as you visit the nation's most popular locales.

On the West Coast, Vancouver delights with its amazing amenities and proximity to both the mountains and the ocean. Admire the awe-inspiring beauty of the Canadian Rockies, where its alpine towns seamlessly collide with its acclaimed National Parks, Jasper and Banff. Continuing east, the cosmopolitan appeal of Toronto and Ottawa is undeniable. Montreal often hailed for its culture and cuisine, is another favorite of travelers. The natural wonders of the Maritimes, including Halifax's Lunenburg and Mahone Bay, offer a glimpse at what makes Canada's eastern seaboard so special.

Some Canada rail tours include overnight journeys aboard premier sleeper trains, such as VIA Rail's Canadian train. This train departs both from Vancouver and from Toronto and puts some of Canada's most wondrous scenery on display as you travel across Canada. Other tours utilize the Rocky Mountaineer, an all-daylight luxury train that delves deep into parts of the country that are inaccessible by any other mode of transportation. From your cozy seat in SilverLeaf Service or GoldLeaf Deluxe, marvel at Canada's most magnificent mountain range as you travel between Vancouver and Jasper or Banff. Both include comfortable onboard accommodations and delicious meals as you travel to the country's must-see destinations.
