Itinerary
Depart the UK on your scheduled flight to Calgary. Upon arrival, you’ll independently make your way to the Fairmont Palliser, your base for the next four nights.
Accommodation
Your next three nights will be spent in the modern city of Calgary. Calgary is an urban gem, with a great character and plenty to keep you occupied. If you are feeling energetic, the cycle paths roam through public art, protected parks and riverside districts. The neighbourhoods of Inglewood and Kensington are also worth a visit. Having staged the 1988 Winter Olympics, Calgary has a superb Winter Sports Museum. Located 191 metres above the downtown core, Calgary Tower offers the best view in the city and is a must-see on any visitor’s itinerary. Other options include the Canadian Wild West at Heritage Park, Calgary Zoo, Botanical Gardens and Prehistoric Park.
To get you started during your time in Calgary, we have included a downtown walking tour, but there are many other options you can prebook before you travel. To view them please click here.
Accommodation
This morning you will collect your rental car and make the journey through the spell-binding Rocky Mountains to Jasper. En route enjoy Icefield Parkway, one of the world’s most spectacular mountainous drives. A visit to the Columbia Icefield for an Ice Explorer ride out onto the glacier is an absolute must.
We have allowed three nights to explore more of Mother Nature’s incredible beauty. With thousands of pristine acres and a small population, Jasper is the ultimate place to view wildlife in their natural surroundings. Elk, deer, bear, moose, and mountain goats are just a sample of the many wild animals roaming the park, so whatever you do, don’t forget your camera.
To enhance your Jasper experience we have included a Maligne Lake cruise. To see all our prebookable sightseeing options in Jasper click here.
Accommodation
Heading north, out of the Rockies and its national parks, the next stop on this itinerary is Edmonton. You will not be dissapointed with your stay in the provincial capital of Alberta. You have three nights to explore this wonderful city, which is unique in many ways including being home to the world’s largest shopping centre, West Edmonton Mall. The mall offers an expansive water park, amusement park, indoor skating rink, mini golf park, and over 800 stores. A great way to see Edmonton is on one of the many city sightseeing tours, whether by coach, Segway or on foot. A vibrant scene year round, Edmonton enjoys blooming spring buds, breathtaking lush summer greenery, stunning autumn colours and a snowy winter wonderland. Don’t miss the walking trails and parks of the downtown River Valley, and the eclectic shops and cafes of Whyte Avenue.
Another great way to see Edmonton is on a food bike tour which we have included in this itinerary. Not only do you get to see some of the most popular sights in Edmonton, but you also get to eat mouth-watering cuisine along the way. For our full list of sightseeing options in Edmonton click here.
Accommodation
Today you will make the three drive back to Calgary. Depending on your flight time you may have time for some last-minute sightseeing en route. Once at Calgary International Airport, you will return your rental car and check-in for your flight back to the UK.
