GRJ promotes early booking offer as Canada celebrates 150 year anniversary

To mark Canadas 150th anniversary, Great Rail Journeys is offering a saving of ?150 on selected 2018 tours when booked on or before August 15.

One of the operator's popular itineraries, Canada Coast to Coast journeys across the whole length of Canada, travelling a total of 3,918 miles on three of Canada?s iconic trains.

The Ocean train, from Quebec to Halifax, is the longest running service train in Canada and the journey follows the route of the old Intercolonial Railway, from dense forests to sandy beaches. The Corridor Train takes in long stretches of forest, showcasing Canada?s natural beauty and contrasting terrain, while it traverses between Toronto and Montreal, and the third journey - on The Canadian - travels from Vancouver to Toronto. The 18-day itinerary costs from ?4,595 per person.

For those with a sense of adventure and love of nature, Canada?s Wildlife and Wilderness focuses on the rugged natural beauty of the destination and visits Maligne Lake and Canyon. It also journeys through the Rockies and offers a privately-chartered expedition to spot black bears in their natural habitat and a wildlife cruise along the coast of Victoria, with the chance of spotting Orcas. The 13-day option leads in at ?3,795.
