Prices are the railway's own 2027 rail only prices for one room with two guests, per guest, as each package page's date picker shows them, read on 28 October 2026[2]. Rail only means the train days and the night between them; hotels at each end are extra. Many 2027 dates were already sold out, most of all GoldLeaf in June and September. Rocky Mountaineer adds 5% GST on its Canadian routes[1]. Other currencies are approximate, at the European Central Bank rate[16].
