Rocky Mountaineer Canada Cruise and Rail Tours Brochure

Jetline Cruise brought together two of travel's great pleasures in this brochure: the legendary Rocky Mountaineer rail journey through western Canada and a handpicked selection of ocean cruises to Alaska, Hawaii and across the Atlantic. The Rocky Mountaineer has been recognised with multiple World Travel Awards, including World's Leading Travel Experience by Train, making it one of the most celebrated rail journeys on earth.

The Rocky Mountaineer Rail Experience

Since its first private-sector season in 1990, the Rocky Mountaineer has carried guests deep into the heart of the Canadian Rockies, travelling only by daylight so passengers never miss a moment of the scenery. The train moves at a leisurely pace past ethereally coloured glacial lakes, dense old-growth forests, soaring mountain passes and the charming rural villages that dot the western Canadian landscape. Routes connect Vancouver with destinations including Banff, Jasper and Whistler, revealing a side of Canada impossible to appreciate from the road.

Combined Cruise and Rail Holidays

Jetline Cruise specialised in pairing the Rocky Mountaineer with ocean voyages, offering combinations that extended the adventure beyond Canada's mountains. Alaska cruises sailed wild coastlines and fjords fresh from the Rockies; Hawaii sailings offered a contrast of tropical warmth; and transatlantic crossings gave travellers a grand finale or opener to their Canadian adventure. Jetline's cruise advisors worked across all major cruise lines to source the most competitive fares and tailor itineraries around individual preferences, including pre- or post-cruise hotel nights and dietary requirements.

Tailored Service & Independent Expertise

As independent cruise specialists, Jetline Cruise's strength lay in flexibility. Passengers were not tied to a single cruise line's packages; instead, the team sourced combinations that suited each traveller's budget, travel dates and wish list. Whether a first-time cruiser or a seasoned voyager returning to the Rockies, the advisors aimed to match the right ship and route to the right guest.
