It was a great experience and very informative. It was amazing that there are still experiences available today
3Scenery good but not so entertaining
We missed the show prior to the train ride so arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled departure. The train was comfortable but very slow. Ittook 2+ hours to get into Grand Canyon national Park whereas we had drove it the day before and it took an hour. Not much room in the dining cart as people sat and played cards. This we were told not to do so others could sit and enjoy the dining cart. On return trip there was a show of western bandits that came on the train. We were told prior to get out money to give it to them. They were not entertaining and bandits were rude grabbing money from your hand. Perhaps that was part of the show. better if they had not warned us of this and let the show commence unexpected. The sheriff showed up after and was not entertaining either. Plan on returning after 6:00 PM.
5A Unforgettable Grand Canyon Railway expierence!
What a fantastic journey! From guitar sing-alongs and the excitement of the train robbery to the warm, lively atmosphere, every moment was filled with entertainment, laughter, and adventure. A special shout-out to Mia, our attendant extraordinaire! She went above and beyond with fascinating sights, entertaining stories, fabulous jokes, and a beautiful departure song that made the trip truly memorable. All the staff were friendly and welcoming, but Mia’s enthusiasm, warmth, and humor made our experience extra special. We highly recommend the Grand Canyon Railway for an unforgettable adventure filled with music, history, laughter, and lasting memories. Thank you, Mia, and the entire team! 🚂🎸🤠
5Everything I Hoped for and More
This experience was everything I had hoped for and a whole lot more. I booked the Luxury Parlour, as my trip was part of a special holiday to celebrate my Big Birthday, and I'm so glad I did. The parlour was super comfy and spacious and we were able to stand outside on the rear viewing platform to experience some epic views. I also got to blow the horn. The staff working on the train and as part of the pre journey show, are exceptional. It's non stop fun and entertainment. The food and drink offering is also superb.
5Perfect Birthday
We celebrated my wife’s birthday with a trip to the Grand Canyon on the train. The weather was perfect, as were the train ride and our visit to the Canyon. We really enjoyed the train. The scenery was beautiful. Our host , Emmet was quite the character. He had us laughing and engaged. The guitar players were fabulous. We spent about 3 hours viewing the Grand Canyon ,which is Magnificent. It was perfect amount of time for us. We were ready to depart for our return to Willams. The return trip featured a train robbery which was initiated on horseback. Very cool ! I highly recommend the Grand Canyon Railway Train.

About Flagstaff
Flagstaff is a high Arizona town among ponderosa pines beneath the San Francisco Peaks, a base for the Grand Canyon, Sedona and volcanic landscapes.
Flagstaff sits at about 2,100 metres on the Colorado Plateau, in one of the largest ponderosa pine forests in the United States, below the San Francisco Peaks, a volcanic mountain group whose Humphreys Peak is the highest point in Arizona. The historic downtown grew along the railroad and old Route 66, with brick buildings, breweries and a university. Lowell Observatory, on a hill above the town, is where Pluto was discovered in 1930.
Top-ranked sights in Flagstaff: San Francisco Peaks, Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument, Wupatki National Monument.
