 A great way to experience the Grand Canyon is
to enjoy a train ride from Williams, AZ to the South Rim. This is a highly recommended tour for those seeking a unique and convenient mode of transportation into the Park.
Passengers may choose from five classes of service as they travel across 65 miles of
beautiful northern Arizona. Families will enjoy the historic nature of the tour, as many cars are restored to circa 1923. Strolling musicians and western characters combine to
recreate an experience of train travel as it was at the turn-of-the-ce ntury. Take a few moments to tour the depot, which was constructed in 1910.
During your 3-1/2 hour layover at the Grand Canyon, you may spend the time on your own (there is a free shuttle service
operating), enjoy lunch at one of the area hotels, or browse gift shops.
All prices are subject to change and do NOT include tax. Park entrance fees are set by the National Park Service and may be waived if you provide your
parks pass number.

ABOUT MAKING A RESERVATION
 First, choose from one of six classes:
- Coach (least expensive);
- Budd (air-conditioned);
- Club (coach upgrade, includes refreshments and no-host bar);
- First Class (recliner seats, air conditioning, server staff with continental
breakfast and appetizers and champagne in the afternoon, bar service);
- Observation Class (First class with
breathtaking views from dome car, air conditioned);
- Luxury Parlor Class (First class service in the last car of the train, air conditioned,

You may designate different classes of service to the Canyon and the return. A recommended way to travel is Deluxe Observation Class (Dome) on the way to the
Canyon to enjoy the scenery in the morning, and First Class on the return to take advantage of the refreshments and comfort. Luxury Parlor class is subject to availability,
we recommend you select an alternate class of service.
