Highlights

Alberta and British Columbia are the two most western provinces in Canada. Their landscapes encompass mountains, prairies, desert badlands and vast coniferous forests, including many lakes such as world famous, Lake Louise. The Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks have glaciers, including the famous Columbia Icefields. No visit would be complete without a two day visits to the Calgary Stampede, known as the “Greatest Outdoor Show On Earth”.  This tour visits both rural areas as well as the top touristic highlights in each region.

  • Enjoy two days at the Calgary Stampede with reserved seating for the Chuckwagon Races and Grandstand Show!
  • Board a SnoCoach for a thrilling trek to Athabasca Glacier in Jasper National Park.
  • Visit Butchart Gardens, a 120-year-old world famous 55-acre display garden.
  • Take in the views at Capilano Suspension Park.
