Trips to Vancouver, Banff, Jasper, Lake Louise, Canmore

Vibrant, urban, yet rich in history and culture, modern but nestled amidst natural beauty, Canadian cities are not just a starting point for an outdoor adventure. The city is an adventure itself.

On the popular West Coast, Vancouver vacations bring you to urban life framed by majestic sea and mountain. Mild winters and warm summers make travel to Vancouver comfortable year-round. With several ski slopes and dozens of golf courses, world-class dining and dynamic nightlife, shopping, sailing, hiking, kayaking...there's a lot for everyone to fall in love with.

A scenic drive from Vancouver, your Whistler vacation brings you to North America's top-rated ski resort and some of the best slopes in the world (host to the 2010 Olympic Winter Games). Summer activities are nearly as popular, with mountain-biking, hiking, and all-terrain vehicle rentals. Or simply enjoy the charming atmosphere, fine dining, and dazzling scenery.

Nicknamed "The Garden City", Victoria is as famous for the British charm of its teahouses and double-decker buses as it is for its many museums and attractions, some hidden gems among the turns-of-the-century buildings and Edwardian homes. Most renown is Butchart Gardens, a breathtaking 50-acre garden estate.

Banff vacations take you far from the bustle of the West Coast. Nestled in the Canadian Rockies, Banff is a major resort hub for sports and outdoor excursions, well known for its skiing, hiking, mountain-biking and hot springs. A natural stop for trips to Calgary and the Rockies, you'll be as taken with the charm of this romantic village as you are with the stunning natural splendor.

Calgary itself is a popular destination for winter sports and other outdoor activities, driving distance from many major mountain resorts and the majesty of Jasper National Park and the Canadian Rockies. Like Edmonton to the north, Calgary hosts many major festivals and events, including the famous Calgary Stampede and the Folk Music Festival.
