VIA Rail holidays - Striking, luxurious and easy-going

Discover Canada's luxury rail holidays

Travelling via rail is one of the best ways to see Canada in all its natural glory and to truly capture the magnificent breadth of the country stretching from the Pacific to Atlantic Ocean. Just under 200 years ago the country of Canada was formed and brought together largely by the introduction of the cross-country railway. What better way is there to explore the vast beauty, size, and diversity of Canada’s landscape, provinces, and culture than by train?

Start in the west and travel east or follow in the footsteps of European explorers who began in the east and travelled west all the way out to what is now Vancouver and the beautiful pacific coastline of British Columbia. A trans-Canada train journey is a memorable adventure, great for families, couples, and singles alike.

VIA Rail trip even gives you the option of private sleeper rooms and suites which give you your own cosy beds and private bathroom facilities. The beds fold away to give you a private lounge in the daytime.

Canadian Sky offers a choice of services on VIA Rail. The rugged terrain and awe inspiring scenery of the Rockies is an experience that will stay with you for a lifetime. The friendly and welcoming rail staff makes the journey even more enjoyable. Seeing Canada by train is truly ideal.
