Canada 2023/24 Small-Group Winter Tour with Northern Lights Experience, Rockies Helicopter Flight & Fairmont Chateau Stay

Turquoise glacial waters, starlit canyon walks and the shimmering Northern Lights call to you on this wild and wintry small-group tour (max. 16 travellers) of Canada’s northwest. Sample Vancouver’s finest culinary delights and shop the Market Hall on vibrant Granville Island, then set your sights for the astounding Lake Louise and a mountain retreat at the spectacular Fairmont Chateau. Chart the scene on an introductory snowshoe tour and watch keenly for caribou. Next, visit the thermal springs of Banff that gave rise to Canada’s first national park and sweep the skies on a scenic helicopter tour of the Rocky Mountains before descending into snowy silence on an evening icewalk through Johnston Canyon.

Fly north to explore the vast landscape of Canada’s Northwest Territories from your lakeside base in Yellowknife. Spend three nights in wonder as you search the skies for the elusive aurora borealis. You’ll leave the city far behind and settle in with heated seats and hot drinks at Aurora Village – the ideal spot to watch the shifting colours in the sky. Travel this rugged landscape in comfort with your comfortable coach transport, enjoy domestic airport transfers throughout and dig deep into the history of these ancient wilds with the help of experts along the way.

Your journey takes you to: Vancouver – Calgary – Lake Louise – Banff – Yellowknife.
