LAKE LOUISE
This superb holiday takes you to the breathtaking grandeur of the Canadian Rockies and sophisticated Vancouver. With a wonderful cruise aboard Holland America Lines Statendam showing you the staggering beauty of Alaska a true wilderness of dramatic landscapes and amazing wildlife this really is a holiday to remember.
CRUISE TO ALASKA By far the most dramatic and beautiful region of this vast state is the south-east coastline, known as the Inside Passage, with its myriad islands, channels and inlets. The only way to fully appreciate the natural wonders of this region is by ship. Indeed, there are no roads along this coast. We have chosen Holland America Line as our cruise partners for the second part of this tour. Aboard the Statendam you will glide into remote inlets and bays, call at picturesque and historic waterfront communities, and witness the spectacular birth of icebergs, crashing from the face of shimmering glaciers. YOUR ITINERARY DAY 1 - Depart on your flight to Calgary. On arrival transfer to Banff for a two night stay. DAY 4 - Continue through the Rockies, driving via Revelstoke and Vernon to the Kelowna area, situated in the beautiful Okanagan Valley, for an overnight stay. DAY 5 - Continue across British Columbia to Vancouver. Enjoy spectacular scenery as you drive to Vancouver, where you will stay at a centrally located hotel for three nights. DAY 6 - Vancouver has one of the most beautiful settings of any city in the world. It is surrounded by mountains, forests and beautiful islands. As Canadas third largest city, it is a busy seaport and important centre for the fishing and timber industries. This morning you will depart on an included introductory half day tour of the city during which you will visit Chinatown, Gastown, the remarkable 1,000 acre Stanley Park with its famous totem poles, and the magnificent harbour. There is plenty to see and do in Vancouver.
