Your Itinerary
Day 1: Banff National Park. Welcome to Calgary, Alberta! Follow the easy to follow directions in your personalized travel journal. It's a spectacular change of scenery as you drive toward the towering limestone peaks known as the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Stop in Banff to do last minute shopping, and get into the Christmas spirit before heading out to your remote and luxurious mountain cabin getaway. Accommodation: Baker Creek Chalets (Deluxe Cabin Option near Lake Louise);
Day 2: Banff National Park. Tucked away in a valley surrounded by snow-capped peaks, hanging glaciers, and fresh mountain streams, the friendly village of Lake Louise is a nature lover's playground. Today experience the enchantment of the landscape as you romp through the snow on your new mode of transport - snowshoes! (This activity may be traded for any Banff experience of choice). This afternoon, refer to your travel journal, for ideas on exploring Banff and Lake Louise on your own. Accommodation: Baker Creek Chalets (Deluxe Cabin Option near Lake Louise);
Day 3: Banff National Park. Take advantage of a day to enjoy the holiday festivities in Banff or Lake Louise at your own pace.

Tonight, indulge your taste buds in a delicious dinner featuring Rocky Mountain inspired cuisine. Accommodation: Baker Creek Chalets (Deluxe Cabin Option near Lake Louise);
Day 4: Yoho National Park. Wake to a glistening winter morning in the Rockies and a day for leisurely exploring along your scenic journey to Emerald Lake.

Later, cuddle next to the crackling fire with your loved one. Accommodation: Emerald Lake Lodge (Deluxe Cabin Option near Yoho);
Day 5: Yoho National Park. Prepare for a thrilling day of exploring on a guided snowmobiling and ice fishing adventure. Fly through the snow on your personal snowmobile, discovering the most beautiful and untouched parts of the Rockies.

Celebrate your final night with a special gourmet dinner reflecting your tastes and the festive delights of Canadian Rocky Mountain Cuisine. Accommodation: Emerald Lake Lodge (Deluxe Cabin Option near Yoho);
