From dramatic mountain ranges and turquoise lakes to charming historic cities and coastal villages, Canada offers a mix of experiences that feel both grand and deeply immersive.

Here’s a few ways you can check out the friendly nation, without having to worry about the planning.

Explore the Canadian Rockies by rail, road, and sea

One of the standout itineraries for 2026 is the Great Resorts of the Canadian Rockies with Rocky Mountaineer and Alaska Cruise. This unforgettable journey combines the towering peaks and glacier-fed lakes of western Canada with one of the world’s most iconic rail journeys.

Travellers experience the luxury Rocky Mountaineer, renowned for its glass-domed carriages and gourmet service, before continuing on to an Alaska cruise with Holland America Line. Together, this is a seamless tour, rail, and cruise holiday that showcases the very best of western Canada and Alaska in one carefully curated itinerary.

The tour also includes stays at legendary Fairmont Hotels, adding an extra layer of heritage and old-world charm.

Immerse yourself in French Canada

For something entirely different, the Quebec in Depth with the Gaspé Peninsula tour offers a rich cultural experience in eastern Canada. This journey takes travellers through historic Québec City and Montréal before venturing into the dramatic landscapes of the Gaspé Peninsula.

Expect rugged coastlines, charming villages, fresh seafood, and a strong sense of French heritage: an ideal itinerary for travellers who love history, culture and slower-paced exploration with a side of striking natural beauty.

Discover Canada’s historic eastern cities

Why not try the Historic Cities of Eastern Canada tour, a specially designed holiday that brings together some of the country’s most influential and picturesque destinations.

You’ll see the grand architecture of Ottawa, the old-world streets of Québec City, and the energy of Toronto and Montréal, giving you a well-rounded introduction to Canada’s eastern provinces.

With guided sightseeing and insider access, travellers will gain a deeper understanding of Canada’s history, politics and cultural identity - all while enjoying the comfort of premium accommodation and effortless transport.
