The United States route, dubbed the “Rockies to the Red Rocks,” is scheduled to open in August 2021, with plans for 40 departures beginning August 15 until October 23, 2021. A two-day trip starts at $1,250 per person, including a one-night luxury hotel stay.

The “Rockies to the Red Rocks” route took several years to plan. This route will take passengers to the region where train travel began. The two-day tour follows a historic rail route from Denver, Colorado, to Moab, Utah, and offers spectacular vistas.

Get ready to experience the magnificent scenery and be delighted at the sight of national parks and other beautiful things you will see along the way. Think vast canyons, mesmerizing deserts, and pinnacles of weathered rock.

The trip consists of an overnight stay in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, a blissful town renowned for its unmatched Rocky Mountain vistas and soothing hot springs, making it the perfect place to calm your senses and clear your mind.

If you prefer a Canadian tour, Rocky Mountaineer also offers three rail routes traversing Vancouver and Jasper, Lake Louise, and Banff’s Canadian Rockies towns.

After immersing in the glorious scenery, passengers will be treated to five-star service and the very best local meal for dinner, plus access to the lounge car to enjoy curated cocktails.

Rocky Mountaineer’s tour passengers are taken along striking vistas by daytime then brought to beautiful hotels at each destination by night for a restful slumber. You can really get the best of both worlds with Rocky Mountaineer’s glass-domed luxury train tour packages.
