2 Nights – Banff
2 Nights – Lake Louise
2 Nights – Jasper
1 Night – Sun Peaks
2 Nights – Whistler
3 Nights – Vancouver
✈ UK – Calgary (2 Nights): To kick start your epic journey we’ll fly you into Calgary from the UK, the perfect place to start a trip through the Rocky Mountains. With two nights at your disposal, you’ll have plenty of time to get over your flight and explore the unique culture that the city exudes. Calgary’s massive metropolitan area is packed with attractions to discover and neighbourhoods to explore. For eating, drinking and shopping, The Beltline and 17th Avenue is the place to be. This part of town is where the city comes alive at night and where you’ll always find something incredible to eat. Inglewood, Calgary’s oldest urban area, offers a more alternative experience while it’s also close to the Calgary Zoo; a must see in the city. Glenbow Museum, Stephen Avenue Walk, Chinatown and Prince’s Island Park are among the other major attractions in the city.
🚗 Calgary – Banff (2 Nights): After two nights in the city, you will drive out to Banff and catch your first real glimpse of Canada’s awesome natural beauty. The resort town lies within the heart of the Banff National Park, home to the dramatic peaks Mt. Cascade and Mt. Rundle, and the vast waters of Moraine Lake. Canada’s oldest park is also one of its most visited and once you arrive, you will understand why. Take your time to explore the stunning wilderness with popular hikes like the Cory Pass Loop. After a long walk, relax those legs at the Upper Hot Springs or play a few rounds at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel’s impressive golf course. Other things you can get up to in Banff include horse riding, climbing and skiing in the colder months.
🚗 Banff – Lake Louise (2 Nights): Next, make the short, scenic drive from Banff to Lake Louise, vivid splash of blue nestled in front of an epic backdrop of towering peaks. The best way to enjoy the lake’s beauty is to rent a kayak and get out on its serene waters. There’s also the chance to see it from an aerial perspective with the mountains surrounding it being filled with awesome hiking routes. A true outdoor paradise, there’s everything from mountaineering to caving to white water rafting available in this part of the world; more than enough to keep you busy during your two nights here.
🚗 Lake Louise – Jasper (2 Nights): Your next stop means that you’ll be driving for just over three hours, but the scenery along the way is a worthy sight in itself. Pass the mighty peaks of Mt. Sarbach, Murchison and Cirrus Mountain before arriving at another tranquil outdoor mecca of Jasper. Besides the stunning mountainous backdrop that surrounds it, Jasper is another action packed city, full of incredible activities. White water rafting is highly recommended here as well as a trip to the remarkable waterfalls of the gigantic glacier. The fact that Jasper is located right in the heart of a national park means that it is home to some of the best walking trails in Canada.
🚗 Jasper – Whistler (1 Night Sun Peaks + 2 Nights Whistler): The next couple stops on your trail will take you onto Sun Peaks and Whistler, two areas that are well known for their ski resorts and winter fun. However, if you are making the trip in summer. There’s still plenty to enjoy off the slopes. Whistler, in particular, is abound with remarkable activities including bear viewing, biking and the Peak 2 Peak Gondola, an epic cable car ride between two of the area’s highest peaks; the views are out of this world. Whistler Village itself has a pretty interesting nightlife and arts scene, so evenings and downtime are also taken care of.
🚗 Whistler – Vancouver (3 Nights): Finally, after an incredible ten days out in the beauty of Canada’s wild outdoors, you’ll be back in the city for the last three nights of your holiday, and what a city to pick. Vancouver is a thriving hub of culture and style located on Canada’s West Coast. Known for its vibrant theatre and music scene as well as a burgeoning foodie movement, Vancouver is the ideal place to cap off an incredible trip in an incredible country.
✈Vancouver- UK: On the last day in Vancouver we will pick you up and take you to the airport for your flight back to the UK.

As always, Chris was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He gave me good advice on my travel plans and booked the holiday on my behalf. I've used eshores a number of times, and will continue to do so.

We haven’t been on our trip yet but based purely on the experience of booking the trip we are pleased with the result. It started with a bit of a hiccup as we spoke to a member of staff who never came back to us but when we reached back out again we were placed in the hands of Andy who has helped us book a 2 week trip to India including the golden triangle and then a few days on the beach. Andy was very patient with us with our changes to our tailor made holiday, even when we asked him to explore different areas only to revert back to the original plan. He also recommended moving the holiday back one week which created a saving of over £700 which meant we could upgrade the room for our beach stay in Goa. Andy was also available on weekends if we wanted to speak and regularly picked up the phone as opposed to keeping it to purely email dialogue. Hopefully the holiday will be amazing but based on the booking experience I would recommend eShores if you’re looking to book a tailor made holiday

We have booked two big holidays this year for a group of 8 and a group of 10, Rachel has coordinated our holidays with the utmost excellence, during the consultation we changed countires hotels and even flights but it did not phase Rachel one bit. Exceeds customer expectations by helping advising and supporting throughout the holiday. We are off to Thailand and Dubai in August and then followed by India and Thailand in November, I have rang emailed Rachel many times during the booking and I got very prompt responses even on her days off. Rachel is a credit to EShores and EShores is setting standards regarding customer focus.

I can’t praise Lynette at EShores enough. She has organised my trips perfectly to the point that I wouldn’t use anyone else. She listens to what I want or to the problem I have and comes up with a solution. Nothing is too much trouble. Try them out yourselves and I bet you become a repeater too!
