Guests traveling on the legendary Rocky Mountaineer train – the
only passenger rail service on this historic rail route – will
experience expansive glass-dome windows and luxurious coaches.
Breathtaking 180-degree panoramic views of snow-capped mountains,
shimmering lakes and winding canyons are offered from all angles.
Renowned for its GoldLeaf Service, Rocky Mountaineer offers an
onboard dining room where guests can indulge in culinary delights
inspired by the region with a new 2023 menu as well as full
complimentary bar service.
"We are excited to partner with Rocky Mountaineer so our
passengers can enjoy the spectacular scenery and Alaskan wildlife
in the utmost of luxury both by land and by sea," said Matt Gleaves, VP Commercial, Cunard,
North America.
Queen Elizabeth's summer in
Alaska will be a season full of
