Rocky Mountaineer Experience
Description: Enjoy the ultimate train ride - a two-day, all-daylight tour of the Canadian Rockies aboard the Rocky Mountaineer. Relax in a panoramic domed car (GoldLeaf) as the stunning and constantly changing vistas parade before your eyes. Combined with the service and interpretive commentary, you experience one of the world's most unforgettable rail adventures.
Secret Cove Retreat
Description: Where is there a perfect place to really, really get away? In a tent, of course - although you will not be exactly roughing it. Here along British Columbia's magnificent Sunshine Coast, Secret Cove Resort has transformed a magical wilderness setting into a luxurious, private oasis for distinguished guests. Nestled among the arbutus trees, your secluded tenthouse comes complete with heated slate floors, shoji screens, a king-size bed, panoramic hydrotherapy tub and private veranda overlooking the Malaspina Strait. Secret Cove also enjoys a reputation for dining excellence. And if you can tear yourself away from the serendipity of self-imposed isolation, a picnic lunch on Thomenby Island is also included.
Tea at the Empress
Description: The crown jewel of British Columbia is one of the world's most enchanting cities. True to its British heritage, it is a city of civilized pleasures and there's something for everyone to explore, with most attractions and shops within easy walking distance of the harbor. The downtown streets are lined with heritage buildings, quaint restaurants and cottage arts and crafts shops. You will take high tea at your world famous hotel. Take a magical tour of James Bay in a horse drawn carriage. The Victorian-era Legislative Buildings overlooking the inner harbor link a colorful past to present-day Victoria, while at night they ignite the city center with thousands of twinkling lights. Enjoy Butchart Gardens - rated as one of the most beautiful gardens in the world.
Whistler at the Chateau
Description: Designed after the grand Canadian Pacific hotels from the late 1800s, the award-winning Fairmont Chateau Whistler stands proudly at the base of Blackcomb Mountain. You will fly to Whistler by seaplane, enjoying the spectacular beauty of British Columbia and the Coast Mountains from above. You will return on the Whistler Mountaineer, enjoying afternoon tea as you cross over Brandywine Falls and skirt the eastern shores of Howe Sound, with the Coast Mountains rising steeply to the left and stunning views of ocean and mountain to the right.
Alaska Fishing
Description: Fishing in Alaska is an Angler's dream, and if there is one place that surpasses all others, it is Prince Wales Island. Time stands still in this magnificent unspoiled setting. Here you will find a seemingly endless expanse of rolling forests, meadows, hidden lakes, whispering streams - and all of it teaming with wildlife including some of the largest game fish on earth: world-class salmon, trophy halibut, trout and Dolly Varden. The Lodge at Whale Pass is your base for salt water, freshwater, spin-cast and fly fishing. It also offers hiking, caving, whale watching, kayaking, mountain biking, canoeing and flightseeing adventures for the non-fishing enthusiast.
Alaska Your way by Private Plane
Description: Private Sky trekking is the ultimate wildlife experience in the great land. With your private pilot-guide, you'll visit the backcountry, fly over glaciers, and enjoy prize-winning photographic opportunities. Imagine soaring over a high ridge top, gliding past a family of mountain goats, grazing on lush green grass. As you clear the ridge, look back: a waterfall spills five hundred feet in a series of cascades to the verdant foothills below. Off to your right, an opaque river snakes down from a glacial remnant, clinging to a cleft in the mountain range. Fly over country never explored by man. Land on river bars to observe bears, with no hint of human presence. Touch down on virgin beaches where herds of walrus tumble together in the sun. Picnic among brilliant wildflowers in the intense Alaskan summer.
Arctic Circle Extension
Description: Add an extra day to the Denali and The Alaskan Northern Frontier for a flight across the Arctic Circle to the Inupiat Eskimo village of Barrow. Meet the local people and enjoy a cultural program featuring ceremonial song and dance, traditional games and a demonstration of local crafts. Then, walk the shores of the Arctic Ocean near the northernmost point of North America.
Denali Backcountry
Description: Journey deep within the 600 million acre Denali National Park to a remote lodge, located at the end of the 95-mile Park Road in Kantishna, where under the shadow of Mt McKinley, you can see the real Denali. Most park visitors limit their visit and stay near the developed and crowded park entrance. The more adventurous take one of the grandest drives on earth and stay inside the park. Winding through the Alaska Range, deep into the heart of the park, the Park Road offers opportunities to see Denali's famed wildlife: grizzlies, caribou, moose, dall sheep, wolves, and eagles. And, should the weather smile on you, above all of it towers Mt. McKinley (Denali) itself, the highest point in North America (20,320 feet). At the very end of the Denali Park road, past Wonder Lake, you will find a unique enclave in the park known as Kantishna. This area is home to Denali Backcountry Lodge. Your two night stay at the lodge includes an exciting choice of activities from mountain biking and gold panning to guided hikes and naturalist-led wildlife expeditions.
Denali and the Alaska Northern Frontier
Description: By boat, bus and train, explore the northern frontier from the big cities of Anchorage and Fairbanks, to the very depths of the great Denali Park. This is an all-encompassing tour for guests to see many of the hi-lights, the land, the wildlife, and the people of this great state.
Discover Denali
Description: Follow the scenic Parks Highway from Anchorage to Denali where everything is big; the scenery, the mountains and the beauty. Explore Denali National Park in search for wildlife, ride aboard the world-famous Alaska Railroad, and visit Mt. Alyeska with its spectacular panoramas of seven glaciers.
Wild Bear Viewing
Description: Alaska is a land of great experiences, but none quite match the opportunity to view bears in their natural setting. We've arranged for this amazing visit to a wild bear habitat. Embark on a float plane from Lake Hood in Anchorage to a remote lake on the other side of Cook Inlet. This is a grizzly bear habitat and an opportunity to view bears. Enjoy a private car sightseeing tour of Anchorage, and explore the small town of Girdwood, founded as a gold mining town at the turn of the century. Take the Alyeska Aerial Tramway to the top of Mt. Alyeska (2,300 ft above sea level) to marvel at the exquisite panoramas of hanging glaciers, rugged mountains and towering spruce trees. Please note: All animal viewing is in their natural habitat so sighting of bears, or any other wildlife cannot be guaranteed.
Winterlake Lodge Within the Wild

The lodge sits on 15 acres overlooking Winter Lake and is famous for its spectacular scenery, award-winning cuisine, gourmet cooking classes and outdoor adventures.
