Renowned for its all-year-round beauty, the summer months are a particularly good time to take a holiday in Canada.

Traveling by train will enable you to make the most of your holiday, whether you are back packing, snowboarding or simply spending some time at a resort.
VIA Rail Canada provides nineteen individual routes, spanning Victoria, British Columbia in the west, to Halifax, Nova Scotia in the east, all the way to Churchill, Manitoba in the north. VIA Rail covers 450 destinations across Canada. There is a strong chance that VIA Rail can transport you to wherever you are headed. VIA Rail offers a relatively speedy travel that can get you to your destination on time, keeping your holiday plans on track.

Travelling by rail is a Canadian holiday in itself. With ample room in their observation carriages, one can spend a whole day soaking up the scenery far off the beaten track of the highway.
