Yeh it's pretty hokie. Go a mile up the tracks. Stop. Back up a mile to the station. But the gorge is beautiful! We saw some momma, daddy and baby Bighorn sheep, several rafters and kayakers and heard some interesting history and had a very tasty lunch. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating. We also rode in the dome... More

My husband and I really enjoyed this. We rode in the Vista Dome car and it was very comfortable. The views were amazing and we went out to the open air car to take pictures. We had sandwiches in the Vista Dome car and they were pricey but very good. The service was fantastic One of the wait staff was... More

Maybe because we live in Colorado and have done high passes, traversed Glenwood Canyon and so much more, but the Royal Gorge Gourmet train ride was a bit of a letdown. The railway built generations ago is still a spectacular engineering feat, but the canyon itself is not one of the most beautiful our state offers. Try the Poudre northwest... More

Both were delicicious. The service on the car was great. I think our server was Ashley and she was very accommodating. The taped... More

While not a long train ride the views are spectacular. In the bar car, Pete the bartender is full of information and very attentive to the guests. The food is very good and well presented. There are outdoor cars where you can take great pictures but unlike other trains the windows are clean enough to take pictures out of. Stopping... More

This is a great attraction. The service was great, but the best part was standing outside on the open air car and enjoying the views. The staff told a lot of great stories about the old wooden water pipeline and the gun fighter forts you can see along the gorge. We saw a couple of rafters, but it was April... More

We rode the train for the 3rd time Easter weekend. Although the river is down and this area of Colorado is pretty dry it was a beautiful trip. Our granddaughter (four years old) loves the train and loves to spend the trip in the open air car. Be aware of food and drink prices, they are a bit pricey but... More
