Discover a Canada you’ve never seen
EPIC JOURNEY ACROSS ALL TEN PROVINCES
As Canadians, we are blessed to live in a country so vast and diverse. But with our immense geography, how can one ever explore and experience all parts of this nation?
The perfect option is a once-in-alifetime expedition across Canada by rail. Canada’s transcontinental railway is an integral part of our nation’s history and an awesome feat of engineering. Completed in 1885, the railway connected Canada from coast to coast and fulfilled a condition of British Columbia’s entrance into confederation. With the interior lands of the west now easily accessible, the population exploded giving rise to the nation we know today.
Mile Zero Tours, a locally owned and operated tour company, offers The Epic Canadian Rail Journey tour – a 16-day deluxe guided tour departing Victoria in May 2018, and escorts travellers on the scenic rail journey across the continent. The trip includes five nights private Sleeper Plus Class accommodations aboard VIA Rail.
You’ll witness the dramatic change in scenery from snow covered mountain peaks to endless prairie, from bustling cities to farmer’s fields, and finally, to the rugged shores of the East Coast.
You won’t just be watching the scenery from your window; stopovers have been included in five provinces. You will get to experience Canada’s quintessential destinations and hidden gems.
Unforgettable experiences such as walking on the majestic Athabasca glacier, cruising into the mist of Niagara Falls and visiting the world famous lighthouses at Peggy’s Cove are in the plans.
Getting to the East Coast is just the beginning as Mile Zero Tours also offers the option to extend your stay with the 10-day Magical Maritimes tour in June. This exciting tour begins in Halifax and includes New Brunswick, PEI and the beautiful Cape Breton Island. Marvel at the Bay of Fundy and the world’s highest tides, visit the birthplace of Confederation and experience panoramic views along the stunning Cabot Trail. There is still one province left and the 12-day Discover Newfoundland and Labrador tour is the perfect conclusion to this ultimate Canadian experience. Enjoy an iceberg and whale watching cruise, visit the world-famous Viking settlement of L’Anse Aux Meadows, explore the lively streets of St. John’s and tour the spectacular Gros Morne National Park.
