Ride on one of the most spectacular train trips in the world!

Travel from Vancouver to Whistler on a spectacular train ride. The Whistler Mountaineer is a 3-hour fully narrated journey through some of the world's most rugged fjords and mountains.

Visit Whistler Village, and take the high speed lift (additional cost) to the top of Whistler or Blackcomb Mountain. Meander along the side of 5000 foot mountains as you gaze out onto the most southern fjord in the northern hemisphere.

Then, board your bus for the scenic, fjord-side return trip on the "Sea to Sky Highway." Stops of interest include Shannon Falls (the third highest waterfall in Canada), the second largest granite monolith in the world, and the first class treatment that awaits you on the Glacier Dome Whistler Train & Bus Tour!
