SAMPLE ITINERARY (CUSTOMIZABLE)
Day 1: Depart Edmonton

Depart Edmonton on the VIA Rail Canadian service at 12:01am for the overnight journey to Jasper. NOTE: Edmonton train departures to Jasper are available on Wednesday or Saturday only. Arrive early in Jasper. Drop your bags off at the hotel for check in later in the day and head out to explore charming Jasper town centre. Winter in Jasper is the perfect time to engage in your favourite cold weather activities. Take in the majestic view of the Rockies from the town centre, or from one of the nearby trails.
Overnight: Jasper
Day 2: Jasper

The Maligne Canyon Icewalk Tour is one of Jasper’s most popular and impressive winter activities. Your guide will take you to the bottom of the Maligne Canyon - the deepest accessible canyon in Jasper National Park, where you can see and explore frozen waterfalls, ice caves, and incredible ice formations. You will learn about Jasper’s Maligne Valley, Karst topography, and the mystery of Jasper’s disappearing Medicine Lake.
Overnight: Jasper
Day 3: Jasper sightseeing

On the winter wildlife tour this morning, you drive from the town centre deeper into Jasper National Park. The frozen lakes, forests and rivers provide a great backdrop for the elk, deer, moose, wolves, Rocky Mountain Big-Horn sheep and coyotes that are still very active in winter and there are good chances to see the less secretive animals.In the afternoon, you will join a 3-hour Downtown Foodie tour that takes you to four local eating places, visiting points of interest and taking in some of Jasper’s tastiest tales along the way. At each restaurant, you will be able to try a top dish and a perfectly paired drink to get a real experience of Jasper’s food scene.
Overnight: Jasper
Day 4: Depart Jasper

You have the morning free in Jasper to relax before boarding the 12.30pm train back to Edmonton. Glide through the snowy peaks of the majestic Rockies, rugged lake country and picturesque towns, to gentle prairies before arriving back in the city centre. The Canadian train brings the country’s ever-changing landscape to you, as you’ll never see any other way - with ease, comfort and exceptional service. In addition to your roomy seat and the friendly atmosphere, you’ll have access to the Skyline car and its panoramic dome. Choose from a selection of affordable meals, snacks, beverages, cooked meals and alcoholic drinks on board the Skyline car.

I am a solo traveler. Is there a single surcharge?

There are options for single travelers to join most tours. Solo Travelers can choose to pay the single supplement and have their own room throughout the tour. For those willing to share, we also have a Twin Share option that is offered for the majority of our tours. This means you will be sharing the hotel rooms with another single, same gender traveller who also books the Twin Share option. If this is the case, there will be no single supplement charged to either of you. If we are unable to match you with another Twin Share traveler, there may be a single surcharge applied to cover the full cost of the rooms on some of our longer tours. Please enquire before finalizing your booking for full details.

How physically demanding is this tour? Are you able to accommodate people with mobility restrictions/limitations?

This tour has a low level of physical demand, although there may be some activities or sightseeing tours that require walking short distances. Please inquire if you have any mobility restrictions before completing your booking to ensure this tour is right for you.

Each passenger may bring one large suitcase and one carry-on bag. The weight limit for this suitcase is 32 kilograms/60 pounds. Baggage handling is provided at the hotels in our tour packages. Please advise our reservations staff if you will be bringing additional items such as a cane, walker or wheelchair. You may also bring one small soft-sided carry-on bag, which should easily fit into the overhead shelf of the coach. Each person is responsible for his/her own carryon luggage. Remember to check your airline baggage restrictions if you are flying, as they may differ from Anderson Vacations Tours guidelines.
