The Rocky Mountains by Train
Mix cushy train travel, gourmet food, and sweeping views of the majestic Rockies, and you’ve got an experience that’s topped many travel industry “best of” lists. On trips that last anywhere from 2 to 25 days, Rocky Mountaineer trains—with glass-domed coaches and white-glove service—chug along past the glaciers, lakes, and limestone mountains of the Canadian Rockies. At night, you’ll unpack in spots like Vancouver, Kamloops, and Jasper National Park.
