Itinerary
- 1
Welcome to Kananaskis
Arrive in Calgary and transfer to Kananaskis, where you'll check in. Gather with your fellow travellers this evening for a delightful dinner, followed by time to relax and enjoy the serene surroundings of Kananaskis Provincial Park.
- 2
Journey to Jasper
Travel the Icefields Parkway, a 232-kilometre route through the Canadian Rockies, recognised as one of the world’s most scenic drives. Pass turquoise lakes, sheer cliffs and the Columbia Icefield, North America’s largest south of the Arctic. Feeding rivers that flow to three oceans, this glacial remnant is a geological marvel. Arriving in Jasper National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Dark Sky Preserve, spend your afternoon exploring pristine wilderness or admiring alpine serenity.
- 3
Exploring Jasper
Begin your day with a scenic cruise on Maligne Lake (seasonal), soaking in views of Spirit Island. In the afternoon, join an optional float trip along the serene Athabasca River. Spend the evening at leisure, relaxing or exploring Jasper’s charming town centre.
- 4
Glacier Adventure
Today, you'll visit Athabasca Falls, a breathtaking natural wonder renowned for its powerful and mesmerizing beauty, before departing Jasper for the Columbia Icefield. A warm welcome greets you at the country’s first and only glacier-view resort over a champagne reception and nibbles. Before dinner, take advantage of the long daylight hours and set out for an after-hours visit to the Columbia Icefield Skywalk, a glass-floored walkway above the Sunwapta Valley featuring waterfalls and wildlife. After your Skywalk visit, indulge in a delicious, Canadian-inspired, locally sourced dinner, sip cocktails and marvel at the spectacular glacier views that wrap the restaurant. After dinner, step out onto the viewing deck and marvel at the evening sky, relax with a drink in the library or hang out inside Moraine Lounge. The perfect way to end any night.

Lakes, Mountains and Glaciers
Begin your day with before-hours access to the Columbia Icefield Adventure, experiencing the natural wonder before the crowds arrive. Step onto the vast ice mass to enjoy early access to this breathtaking natural wonder, setting the stage for a truly memorable day. Then explore Yoho National Park, known for its stunning waterfalls and dramatic landscapes. See the Lower Spiral Tunnels - an early 20th-century engineering solution to a dangerously steep railway grade. Then view Takakkaw Falls (seasonal), plunging 373 m (1,224 ft) in one of Canada's highest cascades. The name, from Cree, means "it's significant," an apt description for this thundering spectacle set amid glacier-fed peaks. Arrive at the Fairmont Banff Springs for a relaxing evening, with time to unwind or explore Banff National Park at your leisure.
- 6
A Trip to Lake Louise
This morning, opt for a scenic start to your day by taking the Banff Gondola ride. Make your way to Moraine Lake (seasonal)–the largest glacially fed lake in Canada–for a photo stop before a decadent lunch at Chateau Lake Louise. Marvel as you're surrounded by soaring peaks and the majesty of the Victoria Glacier. Capture a photo or two of the turquoise Lake Louise and rugged backdrop of one of the most famous mountain vistas in the world. Next, enjoy a scenic drive through Banff National Park, visiting the hoodoos and Surprise Corner before returning to the hotel for a relaxing evening.

Exploring Banff
Connect with the land on a guided walk through the boreal forest with an Indigenous Local Expert. Learn how First Nations communities have traditionally used local plants for medicinal purposes and how animals like the beaver and raven feature in both ecological systems and oral storytelling traditions. Explore Banff with Insight Choice. Visit The Whyte Museum where you'll discover the history and culture of the Rocky Mountains of Canada through 28,000 artifacts and artworks. With the mission of cultivating the exchange of knowledge, the museum engages you with the evolving history, peoples, culture, environment and ideas of mountain culture. Or, join a hotel ambassador to explore the history of the Fairmont Banff Springs, which opened in 1888 and has hosted figures such as King George VI and Marilyn Monroe. This evening, toast the end of your journey with your Travel Director and fellow travellers over dinner to celebrate the insights experienced along the way.

Travel further when you're not travelling alone
Our Social Getaways are small-group holidays designed especially for over-60s Australians who want the freedom of a great trip without the work of planning every detail. A Travel at 60 host travels with the group, the operator handles the logistics, and you get to focus on the bit that matters — the people, the places, and the stories you'll bring home.
Open to solo travellers too. Many of our travellers book on their own and find their feet quickly in a friendly group of like-minded Australians. Reduced single-supplement options are available on most departures — ask one of our consultants and we'll talk you through what's offered on this trip.
- A friendly Travel at 60 host — an Australian face on the ground, looking out for the group from day one.
- Curated local guides & boutique suppliers — the same operators we'd book for our own families.
- Real itineraries, not whirlwind tours — comfortable transfers, breathing room, and the “off the beaten track” stops the big bus tours skip.
Want to talk it through? Call 1300 414 198 7 days a week, Queensland time, and one of our consultants will walk you through it.
