For cruises from Vancouver or Seattle a popular choice is a pre-cruise Canadian Rockies land tour.
In the Rockies there are 4 to 8 night pre-cruise tours. Some include the luxury of the Rocky Mountaineer Train and domed observation cars. There is a choice of accommodation – 3-4 star hotels, or renowned word-class mountain resorts such as the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. Many tours travel the Rockies between Calgary and Vancouver.
