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.
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.
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 captivating tales from the iconic Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
What's On Board
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.
