About This Tour

Vacation Overview
Explore beautiful Vancouver and enjoy a 2-day rail journey on the Rocky Mountaineer® through the majestic Canadian Rockies. Set amid the Coast Mountains and on the edge of the Pacific Ocean, Vancouver offers the best of city life and nature’s beauty. Use your Vancouver Trolley Attractions Tour to explore the city. After that you have time for independent activities. Visit the Capilano Suspension Bridge or hike on one of the three local mountains. Visit the Vancouver Aquarium or rent a bike and see the woodland, wildlife, and beaches of Stanley Park. Then, board the Rocky Mountaineer for a 2-day, all-daylight, classic rail journey from the Pacific Coast to the Canadian Rockies. Travel through the fertile Fraser Valley and Fraser Canyon. See spectacular sights such as Shuswap Lake, the Monashee Mountains, and Glacier National Park. Travel through the heart of the Selkirk Mountains before entering the spectacular Yoho National Park. The train winds through the Spiral Tunnels before climbing Kicking Horse Pass. Cross the Continental Divide into the Province of Alberta to Banff, “Canada’s Highest Town.” In Banff, enjoy a guided sightseeing tour and plenty of time on your own to discover Banff National Park. Ride the gondola up Sulphur Mountain for spectacular mountain views, canoe to the Vermillion Lakes, or explore the natural hot springs at the Cave & Basin. Wander around the historic Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel or shop the downtown area.

Save $200 per couple on the air-inclusive price of 2009 Europe Vacations

*Book a 2009 Globus air-inclusive European vacation to receive the $100 per person discount. Booking must be made, under deposit and discount applied between October 8, 2008 and November 30, 2008 for travel commencing between January 1, 2009 and October 31, 2009.

Standard Offers and Specials provided by Globus

Discount for young travelers

Share the pleasure of a Globus vacation with your children and grandchildren and take advantage of a 10-percent discount on the land-only price. For eligibility, children must be under 18 years of age on the departure date and must be accompanied by an adult. On escorted vacations we don’t accept children under eight years old because we have found that they are too young to enjoy these vacations.

Pay less for your second vacation

We charge you vacation price for your first vacation in 2008, but for every additional Globus vacation you take in the same year, you pay US$35 under list. Our vacations are designed and scheduled so you can combine them almost any way you want. It’s fun to play the add-a-vacation game yourself or talk to your travel agent.

Triple room reduction

On most Globus vacations you receive a reduction when three people travel together and share the same accommodations. Triple room reductions, when available, are listed on the itinerary pages. A word of caution: Triple rooms usually are no larger than twin rooms and the third bed, if there is one, is often a rollaway put in a twin-bedded room.

Avoid the single room supplement

We do not take reservations on a “share” basis because we have found that strangers rarely enjoy sharing a room for the duration of their vacation. Avoid the single room supplement by traveling with a friend. It’s less expensive and much more fun!

Do you have a large party of friends or family that wants to travel?
