Trip Highlights

  • Vancouver, the manmade beauty of the city contrasts with the mountains and ocean that hem it in from either side.
  • Banff National Park, where the beautiful turquoise lakes and snow-covered mountains are home to some of Canada’s most breath-taking wildlife.
  • Experience untouched alpine wilderness in Jasper National Park - the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies.
  • Columbia Icefield Discovery Centre - visit the largest icefield in the Canadian Rockies. If you're brave, take a jaw-dropping walk along the glass-floored Skywalk!

Discover Canada & Alaska

Canada is peppered with vibrant cities, spectacular scenery, rugged wilderness and unique wildlife. With its southern borders adjacent to the USA and its northern tips reaching for the Arctic Circle, the country is a place of incredible diversity.

Canada and Alaska are painfully overlooked by the masses when holidaying in North America, with the vast majority of visitors flocking to old favourites in Florida, New York and California. However, venture further north than these tourist traps, and you’ll stumble across beautiful tundra of ice, welcoming locals, incredible wildlife and some of the most stunning views the planet has to offer.
