It is a slow moving train where we could enjoy the amazing beauty of the area. There were options for drinks & snacks, although we never went back to that car, there was a lot of people coming & going from there. Just a relaxing way to get to the Grand Canyon.
Our guide was so good! Cat was very knowledgeable. We learned a great deal. She took us to multiple sights to see the canyon. She was very conscientious to all our needs. I would recommend this trip.
Great way to travel to the Grand Canyon! Complimentary treats were a nice surprise. Avoid parking and traffic hassles.
Was very nice experience Nice personal employee talking the whole time to educate the history of the canyon
Great canyon is magnificent, and Cat our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, definitely worth it. But the train ride is meh. It took two and a half hour on the train to move from flagstaff to great canyon village, while driving you needs one hour less. This season there’s no wildlife to observe, so not recommended. Go for those drive only tours.
We thoroughly enjoy every aspect of this tour-the train ride was enjoyable-our your guide very knowledgeable and helpful.
Tour guide was very informative but could have been friendlier. Train trip was a waste of time. Grand Canyon views made it all worthwhile.
Dear Guest: A couple of quick things...This tour with this guide has a plethora of 5 Star reviews. We are surprised to receive your review. It is regrettable when the door-to-door service, driving, timing, the information from a professional guide, and the value of a professional tour are not acknowledged. We can agree that the views of the Grand Canyon are singular.
Started with a relaxing train ride then met up with our great guide Al. He was informative, easy going and attentive. Made sure everyone had the opportunity to see and do what they wanted. What a great day!
Our guide was amazing and very patient. Traveling with older adult her patients was greatly appreciated. It made the tour that much more enjoyable.
I originally thought the price was high for this experience—but now that we experienced our day, we are happy we booked this. If we had gone on our own, we wouldn’t have experienced all the great stops that our excellent guide Brian took us to. We also really enjoyed the nostalgic train ride on the way to the canyon. It was a relaxing ride, but we were fine with it being just one way. We had a bit longer to tour the canyon with our guide. One thing we would recommend is to purchase your lunch in advance OR wait to purchase at the market deli (less options, longer lines). For a first time experience—this was a great option!
