      Jasper, your way

      It's your choice as to how to spend Day 5 in Jasper National Park – take a gentle whitewater rafting trip on the Athabasca River; go on a Wildlife Discover Tour with a wildlife interpreter; or visit the town of Jasper via the Jasper Tramway.

      Fairmont Banff Springs

      Days 6 and 7

      Fairmont Banff Springs

      Styled after a Scottish baronial castle more than a century ago, the resort’s gracious grandeur is reminiscent of bygone days. Guests may take advantage of the hotel’s numerous facilities which include a championship Stanley Thompson-designed golf course, tennis courts, and heated indoor and outdoor pools.

      Our most memorable moment was having it snow in Jasper, turning the mountains into the most spectacular scenery I've ever seen.

      Small Group Departures

      Our small group departures, averaging just 24 guests, are designed for travelers who want more time to experience each destination up close and personally. One of the benefits of small group travel is the personalized service and attention you’ll enjoy. Small groups enable our Tauck Directors to spend more time in the places you explore with more opportunities to connect with them. Smaller groups foster camaraderie and lasting friendships among like-minded travelers; you'll engage more closely with local experts and enjoy enhanced insider access, ease of travel and freedom to linger longer.

To fully enjoy most journeys, you should be in good health and able to walk reasonable distances; some of the most memorable sightseeing can only be accomplished on foot and may include unpaved and uneven surfaces.
