Itinerary

Travel Map

Day 1: Vancouver (British Columbia) – Whistler

This is it. The snow-dusted Canadian adventure you’ve been dreaming of. Meet the crew in Vancouver and get excited over how incredible these next 10 days are going to be. Plug in the AUX cord and press play on the banging tunes as we journey along the famed Sea...

Day 2: Whistler

This is what you came for. This place is a snow-fanatic's ultimate fantasy. And you’ve got 72 hours to experience everything this place has to offer. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned pro, ask your Trip Leader for the best slopes for you – then hit the...

Day 3: Whistler

Another group brekkie = completed. Then: 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...

Day 4: Whistler

Rise and shine! It’s your last day in WWW (Whistler winter wonderland) – so get out there and do your own spontaneous this-is-what-I-came-here-for thing. Still a ‘lil wobbly on the slopes? Don’t worry if your confidence hasn’t hit 100% yet – lessons are still a...

Day 5: Whistler – Kamloops

Hit the après-skis a little too hard last night? DW, you’ll have time to gather your strength as we take the scenic route to Kamloops this morning. This small city is a real slice of Canadian life, with plenty to explore during your free afternoon. Show off you...

Day 6: Kamloops – Banff (Alberta)

Today = another jaw-dropping drive through the wilderness. This time, we’ll take the Trans-Canada Highway through Glacier and Yoho National Parks, squeezing in a stop at Lake Louise along the way. You might recognise this one from your #wanderlust feeds (or App...

Day 7: Banff

Banff is National Geographic on steroids. Like serious Schwarzenegger steroids. And you’ve got THREE full days to see it all. We’ll kick things off with an orientation walk to get our bearings. Then: which world-class ski resort are you going to head to? Banff ...

Day 8: Banff

Another day, another chance to flaunt your ski moves. Prepare to shred (or not). Or ride the Sulphur Mountain Gondola for insane views over the sweeping mountain ranges. Keen for some chill time? Settle into nearby Upper Hot Springs and soak up some immense Roc...

Day 9: Banff

Ok – nobody panic. But it’s your last full day in the Great White North. So make it count. Confident? Ditch the lessons and hit up the beginner-friendly Strawberry Express. Or if you’re up for the challenge, head up to Lookout Mountain for some alpine skiing an...

Day 10: Banff – Calgary

That’s a wrap, folks. You came. You saw. You conquered (the slopes). And now it’s time to make your exit from Calgary. Sticking around? We don’t blame you. Swap those TikTok handles – you’ll need them to organise that summer reunion trip.
