Few destinations on earth match Canada for sheer natural drama. Think polar bears on the tundra at Churchill, humpback whales breaching, the iconic Rocky Mountaineer winding through the Canadian Rockies, and the Northern Lights blazing above frozen wilderness. Rich in Indigenous culture, ancient landscapes and extraordinary wildlife, these regions reward every kind of traveller who makes the journey. Whether you are looking for a tailormade itinerary, a small ship expedition cruise, a self-drive adventure through national parks such as Banff and Jasper, or a small group tour, Eclipse Travel will help you experience Canada exactly the way you have always imagined it.

FAQs:

June to August is prime time for wildlife and expedition cruising, with departures along the Northwest Passage and lodge-based experiences like Birds, Bears & Belugas from July. October is brilliant for our fall lodge safaris. Winter is best for the Northern Lights. Talk to our team and we’ll match the season to what you’re after.

Canada is enormous, but these five stand out.

Churchill, Manitoba. The best place on Earth to see polar bears on the tundra. Outstanding for Northern Lights in winter too.

Banff and Jasper. Turquoise glacier lakes, mountain scenery and some of the most iconic national park landscapes in the world.

The Canadian Rockies. Best experienced aboard the Rocky Mountaineer, one of the world’s great rail journeys.

The Northwest Passage. Remote, historic and utterly wild. Small ship expedition cruising is the only way to do it justice.

The Canadian Arctic. Belugas, polar bears, seabirds and ancient wilderness for travellers who want to go somewhere truly off the beaten track.

Small ship expedition cruises get you deep into the Northwest Passage and Canadian Arctic. Self-drive is perfect for exploring Banff and Jasper at your own pace. The Rocky Mountaineer is hard to beat for the Canadian Rockies by rail.  Small guided group tours handle all the logistics while keeping things personal. And if you’d prefer something built around your own interests and travel dates, our tailormade itineraries do exactly that. Our team will help you work out which approach suits you best.

The Rocky Mountaineer is one of our most popular choices for senior travellers. It’s a spectacular rail journey through the Canadian Rockies with all the drama of Banff and Jasper without any physical strain. Lodge-based wildlife experiences like our bear watching safaris are another excellent fit, with comfortable accommodation and guided excursions doing the hard work for you.
