In September 2013 we traveled from our home in Michigan to Seattle Washington, then to Victoria BC and finally to Vancouver BC to celebrate my husband's birthday and upcoming retirement. Since we had a lot to celebrate we wanted to make this trip memorable, so we booked the Rocky Mountaineer train from Vancouver to Whistler for a day long trip through breathtaking countryside. The staff on the train made us feel so special and the entire car of passengers from all over the world were very friendly and outgoing. Our meals on the train were first-class, as was the shuttle transportation to and from our hotel to the train station. The scenery of waterfalls, rivers, wildlife and mountains to and from Whistler was picturesque. Once in Whistler we found wonderful eateries, boutiques and outdoor activities abound.
I highly recommend the Rocky Mountaineer Train to young and old alike for a memorable experience that will last a lifetime!
