Day One - Calgary - The Heart of the New West
Welcome to Calgary! Known as the “Heart of the New West”, the frontier spirit of Calgary is alive and well amidst the thriving energy sector that has entrenched this city as a corporate powerhouse. Your private chauffeur will greet you at the Calgary International Airport and transfer you to The Fairmont Palliser Hotel for your overnight stay on the luxurious Gold Floor of this vintage Canadian Pacific Hotel located in the downtown core. Dinner will be on your own tonight allowing you to explore the many superb restaurants along Stephen Avenue.

Day 2 - Board the Royal Canadian Pacific
Your luxury rail tour will depart the Canadian Pacific Railway Pavilion in the late afternoon bound for Cowley, a small town in Southern Alberta, nestled in the shadows of the mountains guarding historic Crowsnest Pass. Meet your traveling companions during a cocktail reception and enjoy a splendid dinner as the sun sets over the Alberta prairie.

Day 3 - Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park
Enjoy a short excursion by motorcoach to Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. The rare wild flowers, unusual geology, and pure beauty of this mountain park, recognized as the “crown of the continent”, will leave you awestruck. A lake cruise of the scenic Waterton Lakes, traveling by boat from Waterton, Canada to Goat Haunt, Montana, USA and back, is sure to be the most exclusive border crossing you will ever experience.

Day 4 - Canadian Museum of Rail Travel - Columbia Valley - Golden An off-train excursion, you will visit the Canadian Museum of Rail Travel at Cranbrook.
