Creator's Key Takeaways

it was a wonderful experience it was much more than i expected it to be the service was spectacular food was very good

the service on board we had two well three posts on board and knowing that i was gluten free they really went out of their way for me

the car itself is so comfortable absolutely and the car would take 70 passengers and the one that we were on there was only 20 of us

it is not i would not say it's for children especially young children they would just be too bored

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Plan ahead for 2022/2023 itineraries as they sell out quickly.
βœ“Consider the Gold Leaf service for the panoramic windows and dining experience.
βœ“Use the train as a relaxing extension to an Alaska cruise or a pre-trip to British Columbia.
