[@brendabilleci8733]

What a great trip. Thank you both very much.

[@tammystratton2256]

I would love to do just one of the things y'all do on the road I know y'all have fun I can see the love you have for each other too and I know that makes it just the best trips together and you are a beautiful woman with a beautiful smile. Your face lights up when you're happy. Just keep her happy man she's very sweet and you are handsome as ever so y'all two belong together and I think it's beautiful that y'all get to travel around with your kitty cats all over the place.

We took this railroad trip back in 2008. It was AMAZING! I wanted to put this here in case any of your viewers have special needs. I did with a husband in a wheelchair. They were fantastic! They have a lift to get him up into the train. Bus with a lift in the park. And even someone to help me carry the extra tray at lunch. It was a wonderful experience all around. We did it in summer when they were very busy.

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

So glad you had a great time and thanks for sharing the additional info!

[@dianewelch6090]

We did this ride on Feb 27 years ago. While waiting around to start boarding, I got a cell phone call, the “sheriff” took my phone away and talked to my daughter who had called to wish me a happy birthday. After he chatted with her several minutes he gave me my phone back and my daughter said oh you’re going to have fun.

[@ccordray4]

You had a cell phone 27 years ago?

[@pambrisby578]

Took train to Canyon at Christmas time few years ago. Overnight in Williams and 2 days in the Canyon. The Pullman car with bar and couch type seating is worth the price. Full package includes Williams room and food along with same inbthe Canyon. Seeing it snow at the Grand Canyon is amazing and worth the price.

[@stormyrivers]

@Pam Brisby, thank you for sharing. I've wondered if price was worth it. I'd like to take my family there. Sounds like a great experience.

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

So glad to hear you had a great time. Thanks for sharing your experience. Did you go out to the back deck during your ride?

[@katecornell8233]

I was lucky enough to ride on the very first trip to the Canyon on the train. My husband was on the city Planning & Zoning committee that helped to make the train a reality so he was a "dignitary " and we were included on that first trip. SO much fun to ride with everyone celebrating. LONG day as the steam engine had a hard time pulling too many cars. Totally worth it.

[@thomassarver7638]

We did this at the end of September. 1 night at the hotel in Williams, 2 nights at the Canyon, and back to Williams for 1 night. Fabulous experience. We took the observation car both ways. The railroad really treats you right.

[@zorindaali-baksh7331]

Hello where did you stay at the Canyon? We want to do a similiar trip by doing the 1 night at Williams also. Can you share some details please. Thanks!

Just subscribed, great video, it brought me back to my wife and I's honeymoon that we took to the Grand Canyon back in September 2022. The music that you added through the video was AWESOME, wish I knew the song titles. I will keep watching for sure. I especially like the fact that you are camping throughout this trip. We are also avid campers and that's how we vacation and travel all of the time. So Awesome.

[@amiralions2681]

I did not know there was a train tour! Great job showing what it's like and you're right, winter would be the best time to do it, I can't imagine the summer crowds.

So glad I found your video. My hubby and I and our best friends (a couple that my hubby meet while taking college courses) of 47 years are planning a trip to GC in 2023 and this excursion looks like a given to do.

I took the train from Williams to the Grand Canyon In January just after my 12th birthday (1948). The train car had a wood burning pot belly stove for warmth and seats that had red plush upholstery and the back rest filmed over for the return journey.😊

The first time I went to the Grand Canyon was Thanksgiving 2017 and I drove r/t from Vegas .... second time was on the train in July 2020 when they had limited services during covid...we stayed at the Grand Canyon Railway Hotel as part of a package which included dinner and breakfast...the dinner included live entertainment...we rode in the first class car as the dome car wasn't running then....the hotel meals were good....the lounge/bar area was closed....we ate at the El Tovar too - chicken salad sandwich w the best view ever...the staff was excellent... we really enjoyed it and I can see you guys did too !!! Can't wait to go back !!! Thanks and be well !

When I circumvented the country, I was mesmerized by the Grand Canyon! (The guy on the train, turquoise shirt, cracked me up. He reminded me of people who move around to get in a reporter's shot! 😆)

[@s1llyface]

We did a package where we stayed at the Grand Canyon Railway hotel and then did the train ride to and from the canyon and it was awesome! The whole experience was amazing from the hotel itself to the train ride and bus tour. I feel like it's a great way to experience the canyon and surrounding beauty without having to deal with all the lines and parking if you just went straight to the park itself by car. I would do it again in a heartbeat!

[@frankalebaugh2887]

I can’t say this enough! I love y’all. Luv your energy, your stories and the way y’all get along with each other is amazing! Anyone can see you’re not being phony when you mention one another. You’re best friends and it shows! That all makes for great entertaining. Btw, did you ever try baking soda in Dave’s shoes for the odor? Lol. One more thing. I’d love to see you go to the Salton Sea in 😮California. Unending history there! ❤❤❤

My dad and I took my daughter and my nephew on this trip in the summer in the late 1980s. It was still a steam train at that time. My dad was offered a job as a sheriff since he looked the part with a white beard and all. We all had a great time. He loved telling the story about his job offer for years after that.

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

That’s such a neat story. Such a wonderful memory. I believe they still run the steam engine. I believe on certain days. We had an absolute blast!

That’s awesome Monika! You are going to have an awesome time! Have you been to the Grand Canyon before?

[@discerningmind]

I love the little add-ons that you include in the videos, like the sparks and gun fire sounds coming from Dave's fingers at the end, the horse sounds when Tanya was riding an air horse. And they're always timed just right, you never over do it, just enough unexpected humor that enhances the videos that they turn up in. As far as that Star Rock goes, I did want to see it, but my feeling is that it's probably not much of site because if it were everybody would know exactly where it is or there would be a big sign with an arrow pointing to it.

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

Thanks so much! We are glad that you are enjoying our little add-ons! And, we agree about Star Rock lol, may not be much of a site after all!!

I've done all of the rims of the Grand Canyon. My first experience was incredible, hardly anyone around you to spoil ones experience. The 2nd was lots of fun. Unfortunately my last trip which included the Sky Walk was disappointing. There were so many people you could barely catch views of the Canyon. The food included in the tour by the Indigenous people was amazing. Lots of people from all over the world were quite disrespectful of the environment. From the 1970's to the 1990s what a change😢

[@ehadder]

You were right near the star rock at 11:59. I don’t know about the lightening thing, but it’s definitely interesting. There is also a collection of animal skulls right next to the track about a mile south of Star Rock, in the opposite side. The track maintenance crew collects them from decaying carcuses along the line and puts them there.
