Tour Highlights

These exclusive or unique experiences are thoughtfully curated to take you on an inspiring journey beneath the surface of local history, culture and traditions. What's more, these once-in-a-lifetime moments are often not available to a regular traveller. The following highlights are just a taste of what we have prepared, especially for you.

Meet a Mountie

On an exciting morning in beautiful Banff National Park, you’ll have the chance to meet one of Canada’s renowned Mounties and hear tales from the iconic Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

The Butchart Gardens Victoria British Columbia

The Butchart Gardens Before Hours

The gates to The Butchart Gardens are opened a little early just for you. Free to explore with before-hours access, you’ll be treated to a delicious breakfast in the original family residence. Then, take the opportunity to wander among the floral displays without the crowds.

Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre

Visit the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre and feast on a breakfast inspired by traditional First Nations food. Explore the museum, discovering your First Nations ‘animal spirit’ with the help of your guide.

Lake Louise Mountain Heritage Guide

What's On Board

Come onboard the Rocky Mountaineer

Take your seat for the glass-domed adventure of a lifetime and get comfortable as your world-class train rolls through rugged wilderness, passing forested cliffs, alpine rivers and snowy peaks. And because APT provides the luxury of GoldLeaf Service on every Rocky Mountaineer holiday in Canada, the five-star views will, of course, be matched by five-star service.

What our customers are saying

We have just returned home after a fabulous trip to Canada/Alaska and San Francisco. What a blast! From the moment we left Australia everything went like clockwork, no hassles whatsoever.

Canada

We have been on many adventure filled holidays but our guide on the Alaska tour with you was the best guide we have ever had.
