Known as Arizona's "other grand canyon", Verde Canyon is stunning in its beauty. Spring offers gorgeous displays of wildflowers and views of eagles' nests, fall provides a brilliant show of autumn colors and summer offers a blooming desplay of several varieties of Arizona trees. If you are lucky, you might
catch an Arizona thunderstorm - truly one of nature's most spectacular performances. Travel around red rock bluffs, over a trestle bridge and past Sinagua Indian ruins. Have your cameras ready for riparian wildlife and spectacular views of the famous red rocks rising up from Sedona.

Bring a hat and coat during cooler months because you will definitely want to make use of the outdoor car. A pair of binoculars will assist in locating birds and other wildlife.

Special Tips
Traveling with children, pets or special needs
|
Accessibility
The train is wheelchair accessible. Choices for riding are regular class (bench style seats facing forward) or first class (comfortable couches that seat 2 adults and are arranged facing one another for a sociable gathering of four). The seating in first class
provides much more space.
Traveling with children
Both classes provide outdoor viewing cars - a fun place to be for "kids" of all ages. Beverages and food are available for purchase (some provided free in first class).
Special trips are scheduled throughout the year which take advantage of scenery and conditions of the time.
|
Some experiences are appreciated more by adults than children; choose according to your child's age and interests.
Although all children love train rides, the rides are several hours in duration. This might be too long for younger children to maintain an interest.
