This winter vacation is a dream come true! Spend three days exploring the winter wilderness of the Canadian Rockies before catching the sleeper train to Vancouver. Then, fly to Whitehorse for three nights of Northern Lights viewing. Since Whitehorse sits under the auroral oval, it's the perfect spot to experience this incredible natural phenomenon.

Your Canadian winter vacation starts in Calgary, the gateway to the Canadian Rockies. From the airport, head straight to Banff National Park. Watch as the landscape evolves around you, with snow-capped mountains appearing on the horizon.
Banff is the liveliest of the mountain towns on your Canadian holiday, and the energy on Banff Avenue is contagious. There are plenty of quaint shops to visit, and the delicious smell of homemade maple fudge from nearby sweet stores will lure you in for a truly delicious experience.
Spend the morning in Banff before heading north to Jasper this afternoon. Travel along the Icefields Parkway, one of the world's most scenic highways!
Discover Jasper National Park, the largest park in the Canadian Rockies. The small town of Jasper offers visitors a more laid-back mountain experience with equal opportunities for adventure, discovery and relaxation.
Board The Canadian train in Jasper. Leave Jasper National Park, cross the continental divide, and travel through beautiful British Columbia. See snow-covered mountains and pristine forests — keep an eye out for Mount Robson, the Canadian Rockies' highest peak.
After travelling through BC’s Fraser Valley, your journey onboard The Canadian train comes to an end. Arrive in coastal Vancouver — a spectacular city surrounded by mountains and the ocean.
Head north to Whitehorse, one of North America's best Northern Lights (aurora borealis) viewing locations. Whitehorse has low precipitation levels — it is practically a desert — which means little cloud cover and maximum viewing time!
Explore the Yukon's largest city, set on the mighty Yukon river. Learn about the history of Whitehorse, the land and its people. Finish your day by gazing into the dark sky and searching for the aurora borealis.
Embrace life in the Canadian north with an outdoor winter activity — one of the many activities Yukoners have been doing for decades. Later, enjoy another evening of Northern Lights viewing.
Your Yukon winter experience finishes as you head to the airport for your flight back to Vancouver. Watch the changing landscape on your journey to the West Coast.

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa is a short walk away from downtown Banff. Relax in one of the hotel’s cozy guestrooms, pamper yourself at the full-service spa, or rent a bike and explore the local area.
The Best Western Gold Rush Inn is a historic hotel in downtown Whitehorse. Restaurants, museums, and shops are within walking distance.
Right in the heart of downtown, the Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre Hotel offers easy access to Vancouver’s top attractions. Fall asleep quickly in one of the hotel’s well-appointed rooms and wake up to beautiful ocean and city views.
Here are some of our most popular enhancements to personalize this journey.
If travelling between January and March, extend your time in the Yukon with our 3-night Dawson City add-on. Discover the area's Klondike Gold Rush history, learn cultural crafting practices, explore the rugged Tombstone Territorial Park, and of course, see the Northern Lights.
Vancouver's mild climate, large outdoor spaces and diverse neighbourhoods attract visitors year-round. Add on a couple of extra nights here, so you have time to explore the city.
Just two hours north of Vancouver, Whistler is known as a world-class ski destination, but it's a stunning spot to visit spring through fall. Ride the gondola between dramatic snow-covered peaks, explore the village, and learn about local Indigenous culture.
