Itinerary

Fly into Toronto, meet your tour manager and transfer by coach into the city, heading to your hotel for the next three nights.

Relax, and enjoy your first evening in one of North America’s most engaging, cosmopolitan and cultured metropolises.

This morning, an optional guided tour will introduce Toronto. See the glittering waterfront developments, the sky-piercing CN Tower and colourful, contrasting neighbourhoods like Greektown and Little Italy. Afterwards, indulge in some shopping in the city's ultra-modern malls, and make the most of the city's cosmopolitan dining options or perhaps take in a show - Toronto is Canada's capital of live entertainment.

Today’s excursion will be an unforgettable highlight of your tour, as you travel by coach around the lake to wondrous Niagara Falls. Marvel at the spectacular views, perhaps taking an optional 10-minute helicopter ride above the waters, or enjoying the view over lunch from the vantage point of an overlooking restaurant.

Later, we'll return to Toronto, where you can perhaps spend the evening enjoying its legendary hospitality in one of the many restaurants.

This morning, you'll board the coach and journey along Lake Ontario’s northern shoreline, following the Maple Leaf Trail that leads past handsome Kingston and north to romantic Ottawa. See the Victorian houses and famous Rideau

Canal of Canada’s beautiful administrative capital, before continuing to stylish Montréal, where you'll spend the next two nights.

Today’s excursion takes you to charming, historic Québec City, one of Canada’s oldest settlements, which overlooks the mighty St Lawrence River, its skyline dominated by the monumental Citadelle. Once here, you'll be able to join an optional guided city tour, before you explore the narrow, cobbled alleyways of Basse Ville and its hilltop Haute Ville counterpart, which together form the endlessly enthralling Vieux-Québec.

Today you'll transfer to Montréal Airport to board the flight west to the oil and cowboy town of Calgary. From here you'll continue through the amazing scenery, travelling by coach up into the heart of the Rockies to exquisite Banff.

Explore the stunning capital of the Rockies, and its majestic setting, today. Take the opportunity to join exciting optional excursions that include a cable-car ride to the summit of Sulphur Mountain, a trip to scenic Surprise Corner, a viewpoint overlooking the famous Banff Springs Hotel, and a helicopter flight across the Rockies for a close-up view of the towering peaks.

A memorable days awaits as you journey, first, to beautiful Lake Louise, its turquoise waters - frozen for much of the year - set against the awesome backdrop of Victoria Glacier. You'll then travel along the renowned Icefields Parkway to the historic railroad town of Jasper, at the gateway to the scenic Jasper National Park. Keep your eye out for the elk, moose and even bears that call this part of Canada home.

Your scenic adventure continues, with a drive past majestic Mount Robson - the Rockies' highest point - to the mountain resort of Sun Peaks, a modern alpine village high in the BC interior.

Today journey west into British Columbia, descending through the coastal ranges to beautiful Vancouver, in its spectacular Pacific Ocean-side setting, for a three-night stay.

Discover Vancouver on today's optional guided city tour. See restored Gastown, colourful Chinatown and beautiful Stanley Park, then cross over the Lion's Gate Bridge into 'North Van' and brave the famous Capilano Suspension Bridge over a vertiginous gorge. Afterwards, explore at your leisure.

Spend today exploring Vancouver, or join our optional full-day excursion to beautiful Vancouver Island, and to the unashamedly 'British' capital of British Columbia - Victoria. See the vast Parliament Buildings and the grand Empress Hotel, and visit the world-famous Butchart Gardens, a 50-acre horticultural Mecca on the edge of the Pacific.

You're free this morning to do some last-minute shopping and sightseeing in Vancouver, before you head to the airport to board the overnight flight home.
