About the trip

This 19-day G Adventures tour winds through western Canada from Vancouver into the heart of British Columbia and Alberta. The itinerary takes in glacial fjords accessible by ferry, a day devoted to First Nations culture in Smithers, and the cowboy roots visible in Calgary's bars. Sierra vistas include stops at Lake Louise with its emerald waters, and free time in Jasper, Banff and Whistler. Along the way, visitors can relax in natural hot springs at Jasper and enjoy local wine tasting in the Okanagan Valley.

Travelling largely by private van with a maximum of 12 people, the route includes ample opportunities to spot wildlife and walk in national parks. The relatively small group size allows for a mix of shared experiences and personal space, with all transport and included activities arranged. The tour is managed by a Chief Experience Officer familiar with the region, blending local expertise with cultural insights.

For those who appreciate a steady pace rather than a rush, this holiday balances travel days with active exploration and downtime. It makes a wide-ranging passage through the Rockies and adjacent landscapes, providing a grounded sense of place without pretence or exaggeration.
