Things don’t get much greater than the Rocky Mountains. Spectacular snow-capped mountains fill the skyline, lush forests blanket their sides, jewelled lakes are dotted throughout the landscape inhabited by an array of unique wildlife. Located on Vancouver Island Victoria is home to the world-famous Butchart Gardens and is the whale-watching capital of Canada. Drive along the magnificent Icefields Parkway and jump on board the Ice Explorer that will take you to the top of the Athabasca Glacier. Wind your way through the Rocky Mountains by train, admiring local wildlife and the immense firs that grace the route, before venturing into Alaska’s mighty fjords. This is a part of the world that is as vast as it is beautiful.
