Expand All

Day 1: Vancouver (British Columbia)

Location: Vancouver

Meals Included: Dinner

This is it. The Canadian adventure you’ve been dreaming of. Touch down in Vancouver, meet your Topdeck fam, and get excited for how incredible the next 10 days are going to be. After a whip around town with our Trip Leader, it’s time to get to know the gang better at tonight’s included dinner. We might be a mixed bunch, but we’re all in it together.

Day 2: Vancouver – Okanagan Region

Location: Okanagan Valley

Catch ya later Vancouver – today we’re heading eastwards. First, we’ll swing by super-scenic Stanley Park. Next up, we’ll make a pitstop at super trendy Granville Island to check out its shops, art studios and awesome public market. And afterwards? Stick your head out the window (not literally) as we wind our way through Fraser Valley, over the Coquihalla Pass and into Canada’s version of Tuscany: the beaut, vineyard-packed Okanagan Valley. Tonight, crack open that pack of UNO. The more wild cards you have, the more rounds you buy. We don’t make the rules.

Day 3: Okanagan Region – Banff (Alberta)

Location: Banff

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

Another day, another jaw-dropping drive through the wilderness. This time, we’ll take the Trans-Canada Highway through Glacier and Yoho national parks. Stop for a photo at Emerald Lake (no prizes for guessing how it coined the name) before we continue the drive to Banff. Ready to turn it up a notch? Take an optional trip down the rapids of Kicking Horse River. Disclaimer: nobody said it would be a smooth ride. After an orientation tour of Banff, dinner tonight is on us. Later, get your trip mates together and whip out your best impersonation of a dancing sasquatch at a local bar.

Day 4: Banff

Location: Banff

Banff is National Geographic on steroids. Like serious Schwarzenegger steroids. Rise early(ish) for an included visit to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. Recognise them from your MacBook screensaver? Make the most of your free time by hiking to the viewpoints around the lakes or squeezing in some kayaking on the aquamarine water. Back in Banff, you’re free to do whatever you want. Need suggestions? Ride the Sulpher Mountain Gondola for epic views over the sweeping mountain ranges. Or for those with a heightened sense of adventure: tackle the Via Ferrata mountain climb. Then swap the adrenaline rush for a sugar rush – beaver tail, anyone?

Day 5: Banff – Jasper National Park

Location: Jasper National Park Of Canada

Hope you haven’t maxed out your phone storage yet. Today’s drive along the Icefields Parkway is particularly ‘holy sh*t’-worthy. Play musical chairs on the coach trying to capture the best angles of the passing landscape and keep your eyes peeled for Yogi Bear. Once we arrive in Jasper (our base for the next two nights), there’s an orientation walk on the cards. The rest of the day is up to you. And later? Get your grill on at a local steakhouse before UNO round #2. This time it’s personal.

Day 6: Jasper National Park

Location: Jasper National Park Of Canada

Meals Included: Breakfast

They say bigger is better – so, this is your chance to put Jasper to the test. With over 10,800 square kilometres of wildlife-filled forests, glassy lakes, roaring waterfalls and gobsmacking mountain ranges – Jasper National Park is just begging to be explored. Strap on those hiking boots and tackle the trails. Rent a canoe at Beauvert Lake. Or head up to Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge for a feed with a view. Our recs? Cruise the beaut Maligne Lake and see the world-famous Spirit Island IRL. Or get that heart racing with a rafting ADVENTURE. Yep, we did shout that. Cos it’s AWESOME.

Day 7: Jasper National Park – Sun Peaks (British Columbia)

Location: Sun Peaks

Meals Included: Breakfast

Time to live the high life. Enter: Mount Robson – the highest point in the Canadian Rockies. Stop for some sick views and to snap a pic for mum. Then, it’s onwards to Sun Peaks. Surrounded by looming mountains and quaint high streets, this place is a little slice of Europe in the middle of British Columbia. You’ll have time to take the chairlift up the mountain for some more hiking and insane views. Practise your swing at the golf course. Then pull up a pew at a local bar and grill.

Day 8: Sun Peaks – Whistler

Location: Whistler

Meals Included: Breakfast

Tums full after another included brekkie, we’ll pass the small towns and Indigenous communities of British Columbia en route to Whistler. The holy grail of ski resort towns, you’ll be surprised at how much more there is to do when the snow melts. After getting our bearings on a walk around the village with our Trip Leader, the afternoon is up to you. Check out the legendary Whistler Mountain Bike Park. Or tackle that fear of heights with a rise on the Peak 2 Peak Gondola. Tonight: gather the gang, dig into some poutine, and share all the thrills and spills of the day.

Day 9: Whistler

Location: Whistler

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

This is your day, your way. So, make every second count. Our suggestion? Get involved in some optional zip-lining. There are different choices for different levels of crazy – including The Sasquatch: the longest zip-line in Canada and USA. Or take your togs and head to the Lost Lake for a swim. There’s plenty of hiking, biking and wine-tasting too. Go get it. Tonight, we’ll get together for one last group dinner. Try not to cry into your pint as we give this awesome trip the send-off it deserves. Cheers to that!

Day 10: Whistler – Vancouver

Location: Vancouver

Meals Included: Breakfast

Round up the squad (we see you late sleepers) and enjoy one last hike on the trails – we’ll roll out mid-morning. The crazy-good landscapes aren’t over yet though! Following the Sea to Sky Highway, there’s a stop to make at Shannon Falls before we reach Vancouver. Time to say goodbye – or not. There are over 40 brewhouses in this capital, just sayin’.

"The tour leader and bus driver were exceptional at all times. The optional activities were great and catered to a lot of different people. The tour as a whole was great and a once in a lifetime opportunity. I would definitely book with Topdeck again."

“Incredible experience! I had done a tour with another company in Europe so thought I knew what to expect but was blown away with my Topdeck tour. Better accommodation, such a great group of people and our trip leader was incredible. Saw so much stuff I would have missed without him. Highly recommended!”

“I felt so safe everywhere we went and would go back in a heartbeat if I could! Can't wait to make my way back to Egypt! I would recommend this to everyone, any doubt you have about Egypt or any of the Middle Eastern countries will be washed away as soon as you step off that plane!”

So Topdeck, you have better...

07-Apr-2024

So Topdeck, you have better not of cancelled my trip that I paid over $6000, and now I can’t even login into my own account because of some 403 Error and need permission to gain access to my account. Get it sorted out because I am not flying all the way over to Lisbon Portugal to find my reservation at the hotel has been cancelled. This is absolutely unacceptable and disgraceful. You even got my flights wrong when I went to Tokyo back in 2017 and I ended up at the wrong airport. Topdeck get your act together and sort it out. And let me back into my own account.
