AMTRAK to Grand Canyon Costs 4x MORE. Worth it? (Ep3)
Watch this video to see America’s Best National Parks by Train! This is Final Episode of our #GreatAmericanRailTrip!!
We spent two weeks traveling through the American West to visit three of the best National Parks in the United States. We covered more than 4,000 miles without getting on a plane or in a private car. Instead, we only used Amtrak and buses.
Don’t miss this series to see this incredible experience for yourself!
In this episode, we’ll travel from Yosemite to Merced, California on the YARTS Bus. In Merced we'll (try to) pick up the San Joaquins Train into Bakersfield. From there, we'll head to Los Angeles on an Amtrak Connector Bus. We'll hop on Amtrak's Southwest Chief as far as Flagstaff. From there, we'll jump on the "Route 66 Express" over to Williams. Finally, it's the Grand Canyon Railway to our final park: Grand Canyon National Park!
