Has anyone travelled on the Rocky Mountaineer train? Which of its routes through the Rockies offers the best scenery? Is the Gold Leaf service worth the extra money?

Last year we visited B.C. and Alberta.  We flew to Vancouver, hired a car and drove through Whistler, Lake Louise, Banff etc.  We did think about the Rocky Mountaineer, but decided in a car we could stop and go whenever we liked.   We loved the drive from Lake Louise to Banff, all the wildlife we saw was unbelievable!  Also, we drove up the Scenic Highway (between Lake Louise and Jasper) to the Columbian Icefield, where we took a huge snowmobile to the top and it snowed (in June)   The scenery is out of this world.

I envy you - it is one of the best places I have ever seen.

travelled between jasper/vancouver last august booked

red but in may changed to gold,we glad we did the

service ,food ,was worth the upgrade,and the view was

out of this world, i cannot say about the red leaf view

but when we went downstairs to have our meals,

i seem to see a lot of tree's as you are on a lower level

we went strait from the train to victoria(over 3 hours)

but we had such a good lunch we were fit for the journey

so to sum up

you are two days on the train 

except for the night in the hotel

two very nice breakfast's and lunch,and drinks

and a view to kill for (if the weather is good)

as to a route i had no option as i wanted to go

between jasper/vancouver 

good luck
