MAJESTIC CANADIAN ROCKIES “We Don’t Send You, We Take You!”

800.591.2432 | funforlesstours.com

Scenic views, Banff National Park Alberta Canada This trip is so phenomenal we should rename it The Ultimate Majestic Canadian Rockies Train Tour. The train travels for two full days during daylight hours from Vancouver to Banff through the Majestic Canadian Rockies. The rest of our specially designed tour is not offered by anyone else. We travel by bus and are staying in the very hard to get luxurious Fairmont Hotels. The Rocky Mountaineer Train has been voted many times – “The Best Train Trip in the World”!

We wanted the best for our passengers, so all of our passengers will be traveling in “The Best Train Trip in the World” Luxury First Class GoldLeaf Train Cars! They offer two classes of service, SilverLeaf and GoldLeaf. The SilverLeaf Train Cars have large windows but not domed windows, they serve the meals at your seat and do not include the top luxury hotels.

Not what we wanted for our passengers. All of our passengers will be traveling in the GoldLeaf Train Cars! The Luxury GoldLeaf Train Cars are two levels or two stories, with an elevator. The upper area is the luxury “first-class” seating area with a completely domed glass roof, creating unobstructed views from every seat. On the bottom level of each GoldLeaf car is a 5-star restaurant only open to those in that GoldLeaf Car. All meals on the train are included. In the GoldLeaf cars, you will indulge your senses with gourmet meals prepared by Executive Chefs. Also, on the bottom floor of every GoldLeaf Car is an exclusive outdoor viewing platform. Throughout the two days of travel by train, you can step outside onto your outdoor viewing platform to enjoy the fresh air or to take that perfect picture. The BEST part of traveling in the Luxury GoldLeaf program is that you qualify to stay in the BEST luxury hotels in Canada – the Luxury Fairmont Hotels.

MAJESTIC CANADIAN ROCKIES 15 day train tour - August 31, 2021 with Diane Prince

The Majestic Canadian Rockies by Train was Voted 7 years in a row as “The BEST Train Trip in the World”.

Why we have not offered this special tour for the last couple of years!

Getting the hotels we want for our passengers has become almost impossible. The Rocky Mountaineer Train Company, with an upwards of 900 passengers a day arriving into the different cities, have overwhelmed hotels in many of the cities they visit. Rocky Mountaineer Train Company controls most of the group contracts with many of the hotels in the area. Their volume of passengers has been so high that it has become impossible to fill the large volume of requests for the Luxury Fairmont Hotels. GoldLevel Passengers will maybe get two Fairmonts and then have to settle for lesser quality or different 5-Star hotels in the area. At one point, they asked if our groups would be willing to stay in 5-Star constructed tents in an area or two. They just had more travelers than they could grant their wishes when it came to hotels.

We finally gave up after weeks and weeks of trying different dates seeing if we could get all the hotels we wanted. When they could no longer grant our requests for the Fairmonts we wanted, we stopped traveling with them. We just stopped taking groups. If we couldn’t have what we wanted for our passengers, we weren’t interested. After more than two years of no bookings from us, they took notice and sent someone to talk to us about coming back and booking again. We told them we would come in 2021, but only if they could give us what we wanted, otherwise we have enough going on all over the world, we didn’t need them. They said they would go to work on getting us what we wanted. 6 months later, they returned with exactly what we needed, including all the hotels we insisted on at a perfect time of year. We have it all for 2021, but we do not know about future years. If you ever wanted to experience the Rocky Mountaineer Train through the Rockies, book now, 2021 is for sure, the future is an unknown.

MAJESTIC CANADIAN ROCKIES 15 day train tour - August 31, 2021 with Diane Prince

There is no other program that can compare to the program we have worked out with The Rocky Mountaineer Train Company. We have evaluated everything there is to see and experience and combined that with the “World’s Best Train Experience.” We start in Seattle, spending time sailing & whale watching around the stunningly beautiful San Juan Islands. The ship you see on page 5 holds over 150 passengers. We paid extra and chartered the whole ship for our whale watching. We will have only our 88 passengers, making the whole experience uncrowded.

After our train ride through the Rockies, we will spend 6 nights 7 days in the majestic Rocky Mountains, visiting places like Banff, Lake Louise, the Columbia Icefields that include traveling by snowcat on to the Columbia Icefields. We will finish with the quaint old town of Jasper and then on to Calgary before heading home. Fantastic trip, but what makes it more unique is the opportunity to stay in the world-famous, very expensive and very luxurious, Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise Hotel, The Fairmont Chateau Whistler and The Four Seasons Vancouver Hotel – ALL AT OUR SPECIAL “Fun For Less” hugely discounted prices.

Note: Late August into Early September is the perfect time of year. Temperatures in the high rockies are about 5 degrees cooler than the high temperatures of Summer, which is not a big change, but more important – In early September the number of rainy days is less than half of what it is in the summer and the crowds are less.
