Rail journeys in Canada

Marvelling at the passing scenery and travelling in comfort – that is what a rail journey across the world’s second-largest country is all about. In just two weeks you will see Toronto, Niagara Falls, Jasper, Banff and Vancouver. It sounds exhausting, but it isn’t: by train, the route of more than 5000 kilometres is a real pleasure. ‘There is no more relaxing way to discover Canada,’ says Yann Martinal. The legendary ‘Canadian’ offers an exclusive way to experience the stretch from Niagara Falls to Jasper, enthuses the Canada specialist. One of the finest moments is surely the ride on the Rocky Mountaineer through the Rocky Mountains from Banff to Vancouver, from where you can even make a detour to Vancouver Island.
