The most beautiful parks in the Rockies combined with British Columbia's incomparable coastline and a great variety of activities.

Heading north from Seattle, our Canada adventure tour enters beautiful British Columbia and the first night stop will be a campground in the Fraser Valley area. Heading east via Mount Revelstoke and Glacier National parks, the next stop is Yoho National Park - the name derives from a Cree word for "wonder" or "astonishment" and it fits!

As well as some great hiking, there is an option to raft the aptly named Kicking Horse River. Over the Continental Divide and into the heart of the Rockies, the next stop is at Banff - the area's tourist hub. Here you can bike, hike or take the scenic aerial tramway for a bird's eye view. A soak in Sulphur Mountain's hot springs is included. From Banff it is just a short drive to beautiful Lake Louise and stunning Moraine Lake - surely the most photographed lake in the Rockies!

The tour continues along the spectacular Icefields Parkway past the turquoise hues of Peyto Lake to Jasper National Park for the next two days. The biggest park in the region, Jasper offers spectacular mountain scenery on a grand scale. The road to Wells Gray Provincial Park passes Mount Robson, Canada's highest peak at 3954 metres. Horse riding or canoeing on Clearwater Lake or a hike to the impressive Helmcken Falls are among the options available here.

Continuing westwards the next overnight stop is at Whistler, best-known as a ski resort, but a lively summer destination too. The next day entails a ferry crossing to Vancouver Island where the next 2 nights will be spent at Tofino on the edge of the ruggedly beautiful Pacific Rim National Park. Whale watching is a seasonal highlight here.

Then it's back to the mainland to the cosmopolitan city of Vancouver and a chance to sample the city's great restaurants and nightlife before heading back over the border to Seattle where the tour ends.
