We made it to the end of the journey with Rocky Mountaineer and are at the Chateau Lake Louise... they didn't tell us what to expect when we opened our curtains in the morning! Holy moly, that is the most beautiful scenery I have ever experienced from a hotel window! This building wraps around the scenery and frames Lake Louise, the Rocky Mountains and Victora Glacier all into one pretty picture!
Outside it is brisk and chilly... so much so that there is frost on the ground. So we bundle up, but the sun is warm and quickly shed some layers. Off to the canoes we go! Early in the morning, we were the first ones on the water. It was picturesque, it was serene... it was perfect! What a way to start the day!
But we are not done with this adventure! We load in a bus and transfer to the Banff Springs Hotel, also known as the Castle in the Rockies. This place is stunning! We venture into town for some lunch and a Beaver Tail and spend the evening exploring this beautiful and historic hotel. We definitely want to come back here!!

Well done vlog...it makes me want to do a train ride on the Mountaineer. Very beautiful scenery and your account of the trip was perfect! You both are awesome! And Congratulations on the birth of your grandchild! Blessings to all!

@lindalaliberte8704 Год назад

I loved every minute of your train trip. The scenery was amazing and your narration is always wonderful. 👍🙂

@bigdogbulldog9912 Год назад

Beautiful,great content 👌

@heathermiddleton4958 Год назад

I'm Canadian so Beaver Tails are nothing special but it's nice when tourists appreciate having one. You two look like you've been on a rejuvenation journey. Jason drinking much less. Alisa embracing your new gorgeous look. Both of you enjoying more outdoor and physical adventures. I have no right to be proud of ya'll...but I so am....lol.

@janshe3597 Год назад

What, Beaver tails are awesome, you can get different toppings each time. We have a Beaver Tail store downtown in the City I live in.

@crystalolton1760 Год назад

Awesome!!! I really enjoyed your video and all of the information you shared about the Rocky Mountaineer train through the Canadian Rockies! Looks like an amazing trip! Just added it to my Bucket List! Thank you! 😊

@laarnisoriano2393 Год назад

@kayroosa609 Год назад

Such breathtaking imagery, what beautiful scenery that you shared with us. Great video and thanks for sharing.

@janshe3597 Год назад

Absolutely gorgeous, I’ve been three times, plans to go again…

@junenelligan1729 Год назад

Thank you for this - it's just so beautiful. Wake up call on how gorgeous my country is. 🥰

@margaretthompson6391 Год назад

Thought you guys would enjoy Lake Louise-Banff area of Canada. One of Canada’s pride and joys.

@user-gs3ry4sw7l Год назад

We love watching your videos. This Rocky Mountaineer trip looked amazing. What was the name of the tour, I must have missed it. Thanks.

@arjay9 Год назад

I'm really looking forward to your RV trip back to Banff :) - you know you want to :)

Where does the name EECC comes from

@TravelSpreeOfficial Год назад

Wow! That lake view… I can’t 😍

@dominiquel8766 Год назад

Hi 👋🏻, glad you enjoyed it by train, maybe next time you'll be doing by van with Elie, and going from Banff to Vancouver and seeing the view from the other side. Looking forward to new adventures 😀 😊

@mikecross5170 Год назад

You have brought back memories of my holiday in the Canadian Rockies 20 years ago. Thank you.

@williamprimm2319 Год назад

Hey guys, this is David with Ozark Baggerz, u finally got a beaver tail! Awesome!!! 😂😂

@jondymon3051 Год назад

We would love to visit Banff in the future! Thank you for sharing!

@Ampy8384 Год назад

I’m from Alberta but have been living in Korea for the last 13 years… this reminded me so much of my childhood camping in the Rockies ❤

@Cloud7Travel Год назад

You should come back Banff National Park. There is so much more to see. Moraine Lake near Lake Louise is even more beautiful. Check out one of my older videos for a quick view. You gotta come back!!!

@maryanngriffiths1259 Год назад

Beautiful! You guys have the best life!! Alicia, you may be anxious to grow out your hair, but personally I love your short hair. Sexy Mama,!!

@FREEDOMREDBIRD Год назад

Beautiful lake and mountains! I would love to go! Thanks for sharing with us!

@davidabrule1819 Год назад

Haven’t seen any utubes of your travels lately. Hope everything is okay? Hopefully you’re enjoying family time with your new grandbaby.

@fdc1374 Год назад

I live in Calgary and I've hiked most of the trails above Lake Louise, including some "secret " ones were we are the only hikers on the trial. The Lake looks even more beautiful from above. If you'd like help planing another trip to Alberta, get in touch. I'm not a travel agent, just a very enthusiastic fan of where I live. I'm a ski instructor and I hike and bike every day in the summer. I am so lucky to live here.

@gwynethglas-brown9171 Год назад

OMG what a Breathtaking view from your Hotel ❤❤ awesome trip to do Thank you for taking us along e joyed every video so much . Take care safe travels 🥰🥰

@NorthernVikingExplorer Год назад

Awesome series through our neck of the woods in Canada. 🇨🇦 Very much enjoyed!

@candytoo3729 Год назад

Enoy your travels and honest opinions. Hope you get to my neck of the woods some time. I am out in Newfoundland. Family been here since 1610. I am a traveller myself and love your content.

@kpl-CA Год назад

So glad you guys did this. We love our home & enjoy sharing. So many travellers think we have nothing special here... 🤷

@RichardinNC1 Год назад

Nice video series on the Rocky Mountaineer. Definitely on my bucket list. I have been to Banff and Lake Louise (and Jasper) clear back in 1999. I'll probably look into the US route first.

@darlenehynes855 Год назад

26 years ago we did Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper for our honeymoon. It was magical.

@janshe3597 Год назад

Should you go back, you need to take your bathing suits, go to the Upper Hot Springs in Banff.

@rickrich7325 Год назад

So beautiful! Glad you got to stay there. We stayed there about 30 years ago & need to take my wife on a visit soon. The Fairmont at Banff doesn’t suck either ! Lol. I was very fortunate my parents loved to travel and show us the World.

@kashaallen77 Год назад

I am so glad that you guys had a great time. Let me know next time you are in my area. You guys need to come back to Alberta a do a road trip. There's so much to see here.

@saundramoragne3431 Год назад

Great video!! Congratulations on y’all’s new GB!!

@genep7344 Год назад

Beautiful scenary! We were there 8yrs ago. Time for us to visit again. Thanks for sharing.

@jimdgrousedogs Год назад

Looks like a fun excursion on Lake Louise though I wonder if I would have gotten a little frustrated. I've paddled most of my life and have done several canoe trips in Canada so not being efficient with paddling is not something I'm used to anymore. I bet the views would have more than made up for any paddling issues.

@whale5646 Год назад

Banff and Lake Louise are one of my favorite places on Earth. It is so beautiful there. I drove from Orlando to Alaska in 2019. I spent a couple days in Banff. Had to hit the hot springs while I was there. Cant wait to take my daughter there to see it.. John Denver would be the perfect music to play.

@clarkcalabrese292 Год назад

Wow! just came across your videos of Vancouver to Banff via the Rocky Mountaineer. We just took this trip a week or two, just before yours. Except we were to go from Kamloops to Jasper but due to the wildfires we were diverted to Banff. (Note: Jasper lost power, water and other services but was restored a few days later after our trip.) RM added extra sightseeing trips and Oh, we got an extra night at Fairmont Banff Springs. No extra charge! I am reliving our trip through your video. Thank You!!

@timbarry2743 Год назад

I was lucky to golf on the Banff Springs mountain golf course a few years ago… it was truly breathtaking

@lisaanderson8235 Год назад

Banff is on my bucket list of places to go. I'm so glad you got to enjoy it! ❤️❤️

@jeffgorham8819 Год назад

Don't wait. Go. You won't regret it.

@joannawilson1331 Год назад

What amazing trip!! was rocky mountaineer and your cruise a package together ?

@pattystynski975 Год назад

Absolutely adored your vlog of this trip. I’ve been to Banff and just love it!

@stevebartley628 Год назад

Now you know what REAL MOUNTAINS look like !

@MrTower62 Год назад

Wow what a view my wife and I always enjoy your videos we always wonder where you guys are going next you guys been in so many amazing places thank you so much for sharing your videos we enjoy very much

@terryomalley1974 Год назад

That scene when you were in the 8-man canoe was probably one of the most iconic scenes of Canadiana I've ever seen. The towering mountain backdrop in a canoe with the maple leaf flag in a shimmering turquoise lake! Just wow! Enjoy the rest of your time in our Great White North! 🇨🇦 🍁

@darren5049 Год назад

Really enjoy your commentaries! Excellent video content !

@tinastaggs8441 Год назад

It looks amazing! How much would something like this cost?

@santanamariedarjes7363 Год назад

Congrats to the Grandparents to be.!! Your going to be the greatest Grandparents.

@raybrown8887 Год назад

Another great adventure from you guys, thanks for sharing.

@korablev77 Год назад

Jason, i really like your last thumbnail, did you do it yourself?

@judydale9661 Год назад

Loved your videos so much. On my bucket list❤

@ladybug16421 Год назад

That was absolutely gorgeous! It's in my backyard and you have convinced me to jump off the cruise ship and jump on the train!

@bigj3346 Год назад

What an amazing trip! I'll be going to Banff for 4 days next summer. I can't wait!

@janjenkins8827 Год назад

I want to say this I have watch you two for ever. I love your hair absolute beautiful

@susandowney6386 Год назад

Rocky Mountaineer is on my bucket list.

@barbb Год назад

Glad you had an amazing time. It truly is a once in a lifetime trip. Looking forward to our van trip going west.

@laurieackerman94 Год назад

Wow what an amazing trip you guys have had! Fantastic videos thank you for sharing!

@dannyscandies8561 Год назад

Love you two! Amazing trip and so appreciative you vlogging it. Did wonder if you asked why lake Louise has such a baby blue color. Never seen a lake that light blue.

@karenzirk6800 Год назад

Fine rock dust, produced by massive glaciers rubbing against bedrock, stays suspended in the water, reflecting light and creating the turquoise colour that Lake Louise is known for.

@robertdrucker3534 Год назад

For those that can not travel, thank you so much for your videos

@mandyjohnson8984 Год назад

What is a start off price range ? I will be going solo

@liveletlive1811 Год назад

Congrads on the grand baby!!! So happy for you all!

@SeaLubber Год назад

Glad you are enjoying my home country! The Canadian Rockies are spectacular! In the winter, you can play hockey/skate on frozen Lake Louise. Enjoy your trip! 🇨🇦

@peteshier5366 Год назад

Glade u liked some my country.

@sirrobertrobertson2270 Год назад

Epic adventures and I knew about the baby when we had been in Hawaii. Congratulations to them. And to you both Grandma and Grandpa. Cheers.!😇

@imacrayzcritter Год назад

All I could think looking at Lake Louise and Banff is, “That’s it. I’m not buying another thing. I’m saving up to do Rocky Mountaineer.” Just might take several years lol. Glad to know solo travelers can do that canoe excursion. It looked amazing! The first video I saw of you two was your Bliss videos from 2+ years ago. Love following you now!!

@angelabrown3994 Год назад

Mountains are breathtaking!

@francinejaninesarmiento1797 Год назад

This is such a dream! So glad to have watched this, I also wanted to do solo travel to places like Maldives and Hawaii. I always think that travel is made easier when you have the best travel gear and essentials too. The bento bag from Nomad Lane is my best carry-on bag for travels like this. Thought I'd share it with you guys too!

@gerrilarsen29 Год назад

Really enjoyed all your videos

@Albanwinter Год назад

Oh it's not just you flatlanders that are impressed. I grew up in a mountainous area and I'M impressed by the Rockies! 🤩

@EECCTravels Год назад

They are so beautiful!!

@livingweirdestherc6644 Год назад

It really is beautiful there

@mcpiguet4749 Год назад

Fan for years and Lisa, you are radiant!

@jeanettegillett2826 Год назад

Awesome I want to go 💗💗💗💕💗

@SheilaStewart4354 Год назад

You guys are amazing ! Thank you for visiting my backyard. You captured the beauty of the Canadian Rockies perfectly. It brought tears to my eyes the magnificent scenery you got. We really take for granted what we have here in the west. Though we live near the mountains our hearts are on the ocean. If you come back to Canada 🇨🇦 ( Alberta ) You'd have a place to rest, we'd love to host you. Thank you again guys, this by far, is the best series of videos I have enjoyed the most. Cheers from the North 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦

@lynnie4365 Год назад

I'm Canadian, I moved to the US 12 yrs ago and haven't been back since, seeing you in one of my favorite parts of Canada made me homesick. Glad you enjoyed it, if you ever get a chance to drive from Banff to Vancouver its mind blowing, it feels like you're driving thru a picture. You just got a small taste of the Rockies in Banff, the further west you go the more spectacular it gets.

@terrydrosselmeier8163 Год назад

Where did you fly home from?

@tabitha2292 Год назад

I live in canada and have been to those places several times over the years and it is really a slice of heaven here on earth. Glad you made the trip.

@Funsizecruiser Год назад

Oh my goodness!! What an incredible journey in Alberta you two had!! The Rocky Mountaineer alone would have WOWED me, but then those two spectacular resorts nestled in the mountains!! Jeff & I LOVED LOVED LOVED it all! Amazing guys!!

@davidmarshall718 Год назад

If time and money allow, a top "must do" among many things in this region is the 140 mile long highway north from Lake Louise to the town of Jasper, in Jasper National Park. Called the Icefields Parkway, as many glaciers are visible from it and it connects the 2 largest and most famous National Parks in this region, the non-stop scenery matches or exceeds anything visible from any highway or railway in Western Canada, and is on a par with the great scenic roads of the World. Tour and Express buses run along it daily in summer or you can rent a car. Jasper Town, located in Jasper National Park, is similar to Banff Town but a little smaller, a lot quieter, and has an appearance and atmosphere of past decades to it, much of the downtown is facaded in the same rock-work as is Banff Town. Nearby Maligne Lake (mah-leen) is the largest glacial lake in the Rocky Mountain Parks and a boat tour takes people to world famous "Spirit Isle" nestled in the jade-green water surrounded by a galaxy of towering cliffs and steep-sided mountains, a true sanctuary apart from the rest of the World. See Google Images for "Maligne Lake".

@cheryls_world Год назад

Wow! That lake is BEAUTIFUL!! What an experience!

@genesiesky3756 Год назад

Next time, drive your RV to Banff and drive the Icefields Parway to Jasper for more majestic scenery, surpassing what you have already seen. Also, check out the Going to the Sun Highway across Glacier / Waterton National Park.

@susan9553 Год назад

Congratulations grandpa and grandma to be. It’s the best time in your lives. We have 4 year old twin granddaughters after our son/ his wife’s 5 years of trying. And a 2 year old and 4 month old girls that i retired to babysit.Enjoy the journey. Happy and safe travels to you both. 🎃🎃🎃🎃

@louisevietro73 Год назад

You gotta love the name of that Lake........lol. Everything looks so picture perfect.

@kimberlyshalaby1134 Год назад

Lake Louis is beautiful nestled between the mountains. Very peaceful. Relaxing atmosphere. This was a wonderful trip.

@maggienoble2377 Год назад

So glad you were able to experience fall in the Canadian Rockies. On your next RM trip come see us in Jasper :) We have 2 different Rocky Mountaineer routes in and out of Jasper (a 2 day and a 3 day). Guests should definitely add on extra days in each destination though. If you are able, rent a car and take your time, there is so much to see.

@darlenehynes855 Год назад

Thank you for showcasing our beautiful country!🇨🇦

@marlenebyard5259 Год назад

I loved your RM insights. I want to suggest you check out a Polar Bear viewing adventure in Churchill, Manitoba on the Hudson Bay. Fly in to Winnipeg first. Also a round trip coast to coast circle tour of the US on Amtrak is fun. I love to travel globally and appreciate all the content you create. Congratulations on your impending Grandparent status!

@thetripod7 Год назад

WOW BANFF, That is so beautiful. I will have to put that on my bucket list.

@margaretharris Год назад

We rode the train from Provo Utah to Michigan but the only stop was Chicago we would never do that again tracks are really rough and we didn’t have a private sleeping room so sleeping was not very nice

@lesliegriffin3867 Год назад

That was such a great trip! I would love to do this trip...me and hubby! Congratulations on the soon to be family member! Ya'll take care!!

@suearcher8708 Год назад

Everyone should get to do a "real" train trip. In my younger days I had the opportunity to travel between San Jose and LA several times. It was easy, relatively inexpensive, and a whole lot of fun. There was a two story car with windows all the way around and over. It was the bar car. I remember some of the seats and tables were set so you were looking out rather than forward. I could spread out my homework and pretend to do it while enjoying parts of the Calif coast that you can still only see from that train.

@jeffgorham8819 Год назад

Glad to see you had such a good time there. We went there about nine years ago (September). I talked my wife into going there -- she was a little reluctant, but once she was there, she fell in love with the area! Definitely should be on the bucket list for anyone who likes nature.

@ThePinnacleGroup09 Год назад

OMG... waiting for this post!!!! thank you!

@mscoe456 Год назад

Prior to the start of the Pandemic, I dreamt riding this train. I saw several videos about the train and now you guys just solidified my desire and willing to make arrangements to go.
