ROCKY MOUNTAINEER, CANADA Cutting through some of the most striking scenery in the world, where cars don’t dare to go, the luxurious Rocky Mountaineer train is one of Canada’s most sought after experiences. The combination of rugged alpine scenery outdoors with the luxuriously-appointed carriages, attentive service and gourmet three-course meals inside is winning. The train only runs between sunrise and sunset to ensure you soak up views of snow-capped peaks and pristine lakes and forest – hopefully wildlife
too. Each evening you’ll disembark to spend the night in a hotel, with iconic options like the fairy tale Fairmont Banff Springs. There are four routes. The best known is probably the Vancouver to Banff journey, starting in coastal rainforest, crossing desert before stopping for the night in the riverside city of Kamloops, and then continuing into the Rockies. The newest route links Moab in Utah and Denver in Colorado, passing rusty canyons, following the Colorado River and stopping for a restorative dip at Glenwood Springs.
