Alaska & Canadian Rockies with Inside Passage Cruise and Rocky Mountaineer

29 Day Tour from Anchorage to Vancouver
The sky’s the limit in Alaska with 20+ hours of sunlight each day to do more, explore more, and see more mountain peaks and historic places worth their weight in Gold Rush grandeur. Get a rush of your own on a cruise along the three-mile face of the Columbia Glacier, sail by the calving tidewater glaciers of Kenai Fjords National Park and ascend into sky-piercing peaks of Denali National Park aboard the world-famous Alaska Railroad. Pan for gold at Fairbanks’ Gold Dredge #8, see a mushing demonstration by man’s best friends at the home of an Iditarod champion, and watch for wildlife great and small from Alaska’s majestic coasts to its monumental crests where whale, caribou, moose, and grizzlies reign. Cruise through the breathtaking Gulf of Alaska and Inside Passage and glide through the icy waters of Glacier Bay National Park. From jaw-dropping Juneau to the tranquil towns of Haines and Skagway, to the totem-poles and pines of Ketchikan and Kamloops, Alaska beckons adventurers with outward bound discoveries and dazzling natural wonder. From your British Columbia base camp in Vancouver, continue to the Canadian Rockies where gondolas touch the sky atop Banff’s Sulphur Mountain. Dig into Native culture at Whistler’s Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre and dine inside the original greenhouse at Victoria’s breathtaking Butchart Gardens. Aim for new heights in Alberta—from Calgary to the Columbia Icefield to iridescent Lake Louise. Go deep in the dramatic canyons and crystal waters of Jasper National Park and return by rail to Vancouver in style on the Rocky Mountaineer train. An Alaska and Canada vacation beyond your wildest imagination! Plus, your tour includes your choice of excursions in Victoria so you can plan your day your way.
