Vancouver to Kamloops
Travel onboard the Rocky Mountaineer® from the western city of Vancouver to Kamloops in British Columbia's interior. During the day-long journey you will take in dramatic changes in scenery, from the rich green fields of the Fraser River Valley, through forests and rugged river canyons surrounded by the peaks of the Coast and Cascade Mountains, to the arid environment of the interior. Highlights include the fast-moving waters of Hell's Gate in the Fraser Canyon and the rugged slopes and rock sheds of the Thompson River. Your day ends as the Rocky Mountaineer® travels along the shores of Kamloops Lake and into your overnight destination of Kamloops.

Kamloops to Banff
Your journey continues eastwards to the mighty Canadian Rockies and the province of Alberta. Once again you will see a spectacular range of scenery as you travel across ranchlands, along rocky lakeshores, over high mountain passes and through the remarkable tunnels that form part of the rich rail history of the Canadian Rockies. Today’s highlights include: Craigellachie, where the last spike of the Canadian Pacific Railway was driven; the climb over Rogers Pass; the Kicking Horse Canyon; the Spiral Tunnels, a remarkable feat of railroad engineering; and of course the glaciers and snow-capped peaks of the Canadian Rockies. Your rail journey ends in the resort town of Banff this evening. Overnight in Banff.
