Welcome Aboard Rocky Mountaineer
Three routes take you through the mountains, valleys and epic landscapes of Alberta and British Columbia on the most luxurious sightseeing train in the world.
Travel the rails during the day & sleep in a hotel at night.
Award-winning Rocky Mountaineer is a luxury sightseeing train that takes guests through some of the most spectacular scenery in the country.
Interspersed with rich storytelling by the onboard Hosts and delicious food cooked by chefs in the train kitchens, these exceptional journeys are in a class of their own.
April Psiharis, a Senior Travel Professional with Landsby, had a chance to experience Rocky Mountaineer in the spring of 2023 and was blown away by the level of service she received.
"Rocky Mountaineer rolls out the red carpet to welcome guests onboard," she said. "The attention to detail is superb and really made me feel like I was on a once-in-a-lifetime journey. The scenery, of course, was incredible, but it was the impeccable service and quality of the food that made this experience really stand out."
