Royal Canadian Pacific Trains

In today's Boston Globe there is a review of train travel on the Royal Canadian Pacific.  The author found the train to be both luxurious and relaxing.  For traveling somewhere with plenty of scenic vistas, train travel is often an ideal way to go.  Royal Canadian Pacific offers a variety of packages including standard tours, golf, spa and culinary adventures and a fly-fishing excursion that takes you to the sweetest spot in the rivers during the day and then pampers you with gourmet meals at night.  Train travel works best for those who really want to escape the modern world for a while and take a slow and graceful trip through time.  Prices start around $6,000 per person for a six-day getaway.
