Welcome Aboard
Start the day taking in views of the fertile farmlands of the Fraser Valley before being served a delicious breakfast that warms you to the core.
Desert Landscapes
As you continue your journey towards Kamloops, you’ll find yourself in a desert-like landscape – a far cry from the coastal rainforest you left behind.
Three-Course Lunch
Sit down to a three-course lunch prepared by our onboard chefs as your Hosts entertain you with stories about the region.
Arrive in Kamloops
After a full day on the train, disembark in the charming town of Kamloops –the perfect place to take a soothing stroll along the riverside.

From Kamloops, you’ll continue to wind your way North East through the Clearwater region, following the North Thompson River along the way.
Awaken Your Senses
Throughout the morning, you’ll be treated to breakfast and coffee as you awaken your senses to your newfound surroundings.
Pyramid Falls
Just past Blue River, you'll get an exclusive view of the aptly named Pyramid Falls, from a vantage point accessible only by rail.
Mountains Stretching to the Sky
As the train ascends, so will your sense of wonder. Before you know it, you’ll be surrounded by mountains that stretch up to the sky, enjoying the view with a camera in hand.
