SPA Banff  /  SPA Vancouver  /  SPA Tour from Edmonton Including the Jasper Park Lodge

 
Day 1  
Arrive in Calgary and spend the night the night in Calgary or transfer directly to the Banff Springs hotel in Banff, travel time approximately 2 hours.  Those spending the night in Calgary will transfer to BANFF TOWN on the morning of day 2.

Day 2
  Sunday/Tuesday  Today is pure ecstasy.  Step into the Willow Stream Spa Banff  which is rated in the top ten by Conde Naste and rated the number one spa in Canada.  How about a revitalizer, body polish, shiatsu, aromatherapy, massage, facial, thallasobath, thermal mineral bath, wrap, excersize treatment  or one of many other  wondrous experiences.

Day 3  Monday/Wednesday      Rent a car, take the BANFF GONDOLA to the summit of Sulfur Mountain, for amazing views, stroll the massive Banff Springs hotel or take one of the many hikes available from town.  Helicopter tours can be arranged as well as boat tours on LAKE MINNEWANKA or you might want to soak in the Upper Banff Hotsprings.  Consider a visit to beautiful LAKE LOUISE and nearby MORAINE LAKE which can be easily arranged at the hotel.  Those wishing a second day of pampering in the spa will not be disappointed. 

Day 4
  Tuesday/Thursday  This morning, board the Rocky Mountaineer westbound (Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays).  The Rocky Mountaineer is all daylight travel and is one of the most dramatic train trips in the World.  Service by on-board multi-lingual attendants is superb.  You will travel through rugged terrain and experience the great Spiral Tunnels (where the train circles around inside a mountain and comes out over itself) and ascent over Rogers Pass.  Roll on through 5 mountain ranges to the city of Kamloops.  We stop and transfer to our hotel for the night (included).

Day 5  Wednesday/Friday  Re-board the Rocky Mountaineer in the morning and continue west.  This region of Canada is interesting as we emerge from the great Rockies into Canada's only desert.  Dramatic scenery rolls by as we parallel the mighty Thompson and Fraser Rivers past Hell's Gate.  Arrive in Canada's most beautiful city, Vancouver and check into our hotel. 

Day 6  Thursday/Saturday  This is another of those amazing days that we all live for!  Enjoy another day of "special treatment" at the spa facilities of the resort you have chosen.  This evening we recommend a visit to "Seasons" restaurant a very classy and romantic restaurant near to QUEEN ELIZABETH PARK.  Other options include a harbor dinner cruise with buffet dinner or a visit to one of the two revolving restaurants that have amazing views of Vancouver's waterfronts. 

Day 7  Friday/Sunday  End of services BUTCHART GARDENS and the city of VICTORIA  on Vancouver Island or travel up to WHISTLER Resort area (North of Vancouver).
