Great for kids! Obviously the grand canyon was beautiful aswell. I will be recommending going to see the grand canyon this way to anyone that will listen."

She did a great job with her history stories and ensuring that we had everything we needed to make the trip above expectations. This is the second time taking the train and both times have been a five star experience. Will definitely return."

The staff that works the train are amazing... friendly and very informative. They made the trip fun and relaxing telling the first timers what to expect. The views leading up to the Grand Canyon are wonderful.. I took a few photos and included them to show the beauty of what you see when you get off the Rail Road. The Station in Williams has a restaurant and gift 🎁shops in 2 different buildings. They have all the souvenirs you could ever dream of or want. This trip was pretty fantastic and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this trip out to Williams to come do this Train 🚆ride 😀.. We live in California and for my family it was a awesome & fantastic once in a lifetime experience. We all lead busy lives .. work hard and getting away can be difficult at times. This trip was so worth it and worth every penny to see the smiles on my family's faces. I will remember this trip for the rest of my life ... Such a beautiful awe inspiring place the Grand Canyon is .. What a blessing to see it in its magnificence. This place is Magical and Majestic truly one of the Great Wonders of our Planet. If you haven't been here you OWE it to yourself to witness the raw beauty of this place and everything it symbolizes...😊"
