Loved the train ride. It was breath taking. So much to take in. The tour guide and bartender were great

The charcuterie food and champagne complimentary! The bartender was so sweet and the guide was fun and knowledgeable.

As this was our third time going, I would say that we love it. This time though, we could not hear the safety briefing over the music and we had to strain to hear the narrator over the same sound system. Michael in the Phoenix car was great!

Donna_P

The train ride was so comfortable. We loved the scenery and educational experience. The staff was great and the depot was so clean and organized.

Karin_F

Thought the adventure was great, but there was a breakdown in communication between the actual provider and your company. When we arrived to check in we were informed that we had NO reservations. When they pulled up my voucher, it was realized that we did have a reservation they weren’t aware of. It did get worked out and we were able to enjoy our experience.

I'm upset that there was 3 of us and we couldn't all set together. My daughters drove up from So. Calif. for this trip. The music was so loud we couldn't talk to each other. Toddlers were crying and screaming 3/4 of the way. Your staff was excellent, hats off to them. The food was great. The views were great. Just upset after paying all that money for 3 seats that we couldn't sit together. I had to set with strangers.

Great trip. Views were amazing , food on board train was perfect amount and tasty. Our train car attendant was just wonderful , informative and engaging. What a great way to spend a day while up in the Cottonwood/ Jerome area. Outside car is a must !

Memory is of standing in hot sun for an hour, waiting to board, with no explanation from Staff before finally getting a refund & leaving Clarkdale forever

John_B

Initial ambience was great. Food in gift shop was ok. Getting in train was great and initial experience was awesome. Thought the experience was a little too long. About half was into the experience guests were getting more and more intoxicated. Foul language. There were families with younger kids who left the cart until language stopped. Hostess could have calmed the situation down some.

Nancy_S

It was so nice to be able to ride a train through the Verde Canyon and see all the beautiful rocks and nature. The narrator on the train provided a lot of interesting facts. The staff were very helpful and friendly.
