Scenic North America: Canadian Rockies and the Grand Canyon

26-day rail trip from Vancouver through the Rockies to the Grand Canyon

Illustration of Scenic North America: Canadian Rockies and the Grand Canyon

Railbookers runs this 26-day, 25-night independent rail package linking the Canadian Rockies with the Grand Canyon. It begins in Vancouver and crosses Canada on VIA Rail, taking in the alpine towns of Jasper and Banff, with a second stop in Jasper before the route continues to Toronto and Niagara Falls. From there, the trip crosses into the United States, reaching New York City and Chicago before heading to Williams, Arizona, and on to Grand Canyon National Park. Because this is an independent package rather than an escorted tour, travelers plan their own sightseeing at each stop. The evidence names VIA Rail for the Canadian portion but does not specify the train or transport used once the trip reaches the United States, and it does not break down how the 25 nights split across the ten stops. It suits independent travelers who want a long, cross-continental rail trip that pairs Canadian Rockies scenery with the Grand Canyon.
