Canada and Alaska Your Way
Land Tours
By coach, your holiday through Western Canada and Alaska takes you to all the must-see sites, while celebrating the road in between. You’ll have the luxury of a personalised experience. You’ll also stay in luxurious centrally located and iconic accommodation such as Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise and Fairmont Banff Springs, and dine in the very best restaurants.
Ocean Cruise
We’ve partnered with award-winning Holland America Line to make sure your experience cruising Alaska's Inside Passage is nothing short of extraordinary. We guarantee that your room will be complete with a verandah so you can take in the spectacular views of Glacier Bay National Park.
Rail Tour
It’s one thing to see the breathtaking views of a destination. But it’s another thing entirely to see it all from on board a prestigious train. And what journey is really considered luxurious if it doesn’t celebrate the best of the best? On every Rocky Mountaineer holiday through Canada, APT has secured GoldLeaf Service, because to us, there’s simply no settling for second best.

Banff National Park
Begin your adventure in Banff National Park, where the majestic scenery includes towering peaks, turquoise lakes, and vast forests.

The park’s diverse wildlife, including elk, grizzly bears, and mountain goats, adds to the thrill of exploring this pristine wilderness.
Explore Jasper National park
Jasper National Park, the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies, offers even more opportunities for adventure. Explore the awe-inspiring Athabasca Glacier on an Ice Explorer, where you’ll have the chance to walk on a centuries-old glacier and learn about the region’s unique geology. A visit to Spirit Island on Maligne Lake is another must-do experience as part of Freedom of Choice Touring, where you’ll be surrounded by some of the most photographed scenery in the world.
