What you can expect

Discover the best of the Canadian Rockies on this one-way tour to Jasper. Ride along the Icefields Parkway, see the beautiful Athabasca Falls, and feel like you're floating above the ice-capped peaks on the Glacier Skywalk.

Choose from pickup spots including Canmore, Banff, and Lake Louise. See scenic mountain vistas and wildlife along the way, with photo stops at Athabasca Falls. Then head to the Columbia Icefields and reach the Athabasca Glacier via the Ice Explorer, a massive vehicle specially designed to travel on glaciers. Step onto the glacier's surface for a once-in-a-lifetime experience and then stop for a hot lunch at the Columbia Icefield Glacier Discovery Centre.

Next, take a 5-minute shuttle ride to the Glacier Skywalk and feel your heart pump faster as you step out on the walkway, made of clear glass over a 918-foot (280-m) drop. Feel like you're floating above the snow-capped mountain peaks and vast valleys as you walk along the observation platform above the Sunwapta Valley—filled with boulders, streams, and wildlife.

This tour also includes stops in Lake Louise, Bow Lake. Stops are approximately 15 to 25 minutes to explore around each lake and take photos.
