Travel packages usually include all travel, accommodations and excursions for one low price and Canada tours are fully escorted. There’s simply no better way to travel western Canada.
Western Canada tours are unique vacations into what is arguably some of the most picturesque destinations in all of North America. The Rocky Mountains of Western Canada, and more specifically Alberta, are home to some amazing sights and destinations including Alberta’s Banff National Park, Lake Louise and Jasper National Park.
Banff Tours
Less than 80 miles from Calgary on the Trans Canada Highway lies the ski resort town of Banff Alberta, Canada’s second highest alpine community (only Lake Louise is higher). Located just above Bow Falls at 4800 ft above sea level, Banff is surrounded by mountains and is the largest community within Banff National Park. Banff tours would not be complete without a visit to the Cave and Basin hot springs of Sulphur Mountain, a series of natural hot springs that were first discovered back in 1883.
Other Banff highlights include Banff Springs Hotel, the Gondola ride to the top of Sulphur Mountain, the Banff Skywalk, Tunnel Mountain hiking area and the ski villages of Ski Norquay & Sunshine Village. Banff is also located less than 40 miles from Lake Louise, another famous Canadian Rockies ski resort and alpine village.
Jasper Tours
Located in the Athabasca River valley is the town of Jasper, an alpine village that is part of Jasper National Park. Jasper National Park is the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies and became a World Heritage Site in 1984. Jasper tours usually include a ride on the Jasper Tramway up to Marmot Basin ski resort at the summit of "The Whistlers". Other Jasper National Park attractions include Maligne Lake, Athabasca Falls, the Miette Hot Springs and the Columbia Icefield glacier. Take an all-terrain Ice Exlplorer ride across the surface of Athabasca Glacier, which is accessible along the Icefields Parkway.
Foothills, Plains & Peace Parks
Touring Western Canada most tourists are captivated by the Rocky Mountains. The foothills of Canadian Rockies, especially the Canmore area of Kananaskis Country just west of Calgary, or the plains of Southern Alberta just south of Calgary are also very popular additions to many western Canada tours.
Calgary Alberta makes a great jumping off point. Travel south of Calgary through Waterton Lakes National Park, which became the world’s first "International Peace Park" when it joined with Montana’s Glacier Park back in 1932 to honor the genuine friendship between Canada and the United States.
Other Canadian Rockies attractions include Bow River Falls, a Bow River float trip, Lake Minnewanka, Moraine Lake and Two Jack Lake.
