    Didn't have much time to checkout (only a 8 minute stop on the southwest chief coming from Los Angeles to Chicago). Very modern station with indoor waiting. We were more than 3 hours late. Some passengers that we ate with, got off to explore the Grand Canyon for the day. There is a shuttle service that will transport them. They will take the same route the following day to continue to go to Chicago.

    Just one of my experiences in the last 6 months traveling Amtrak.

    My departing train was delayed by 12 hours and then a 10 hour train ride to Riverside, Ca took 14 hours. This seems to be a common occurrence with Amtrak these days. My last 3-4 trips from Flagstaff to Riverside have been delayed due to maintenance and staff scheduling issues. Unacceptable. Amtrak is an undependable source of travel.

    Get your kicks on Route 66!!!! The historic station is a local icon. The visitor center wasn't open, but didn't stop us and others from stopping by and getting a picture. Great location to park and access the paved bike/walk trails with local eateries a short walking distance.

    Ehh not quite the experience I had in my way up to Flagstaff from Los Angeles. First off the train was 5 hours delayed, yes 5 hours so we boarded at 1:30 am. There was no one to talk to at the office so basically when the train showed up we all rushed to see what options we had. I was put in a seat that did not recline, and clearly had a child airing in as there are crumbs everywhere. I think if the train is coming in late, they should have someone at the station to accommodate and make people feel comfortable. I also think they should be aware of broken seats and cleaning up after passengers.

    Same building as visitor center

    Right in the middle of town I tried to find the price of a ticket but it wasn't open and I didn't see a schedule the office is inside the visitor center

    This historic station is beautiful. The staff is friendly and helpful. Unfortunately over half the interior space is taken up by a visitor's center (with a schedule that doesn't match the rest of the station) and a mostly unmanned car rental booth. This leaves very little room inside to wait. There's no coffee, even for the 4:41 am #4 train, no wifi, and few power outlets.

    Wow! If you are anywhere NEAR this area you have to take a ride on this train! Our family drove…read morefrom Tempe to Clarkdale which took about 1.5 hours. It was such a relaxing train ride. 2 hours up and back through the canyon for a total of 4 hours. We saw lots of gorgeous rock formations. Craig was a very knowledge and personable guide as we rode through this canyon. Craig pointed out so many natural formations. He showed us a bear den, mountain lion den. We looked out for river otters but didn't see any. We also saw a beautifully made bald eagle's nest and we did see a bald eagle flying by our train on our way back to the train depot! Craig gave us the history of this railroad which was so interesting. We were able to go outside our train car to the open air seating to have a more "closer to nature" experience. Shine was our bartender! As soon as you walk in the train car you will see a really really nice bar. Shine was super accommodating, friendly and so helpful! Of course it was a really hot day and he said he'd take care of us if we needed any extra water. The car was super comfortable and cool with A/C. As soon as we walked on and sat in our assigned seats, we had a small bottle of champagne and a delicious charcuterie tray for each of us. There is a bathroom in each car. Go early to see the little town before your ride. This is a great trip for Seniors, families, really all ages. It's recommended to go two hours before your train departs but we arrived an hour before and had plenty of time. There is a gift shop and outdoor seating while you're waiting for departure.

    We had a nice trip and a good time, BUT we didn't get the seating we paid for and we damn sure…read moredidn't like the seating we got. We paid for living room seating, but we got "dining room type seating" The train car seating is pre assigned and if you are a party of two, as in you and your spouse/friend, you will be seated on the dining room type seating. Those with parties greater than two, you get the living room seating. The company needs some clarity on this matter when selling tickets. There was a big comfort difference between the two types of seating and we weren't told about it in advance. Also, I will point out that none of the living room type seating is located next to the on board toilet, but some of the dining room seats are right next to it. I can tell you there is nothing like a line of six standing next to you while waiting for the WC as you're trying to look at the canyon wall as you eat your lunch.

    Taking the train from Williams to the Grand Canyon was probably one of the best experiences of my…read morelife. We splurged and upgraded to first-class. This was worth the price tag. The first-class cars are temperature regulated, have an attendant taking orders and serving drinks throughout the entire experience, and includes free snacks and non-alcoholic drinks. You also have your own private bathroom just for your train car. When in the first-class car, you can elect to sit facing forward (two seats together) OR you can have the seats turned around to form a group of four. Note -- the group of four option decreases legroom significantly. The ride itself was incredible. You get to experience the diverse landscape of Northern Arizona, and may even see some wildlife. We got to see cattle, deer, birds, and way more. You also get to experience live entertainment, as performers will come once or twice during the trip to perform a couple of songs in your car. The train drops you off at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon for about three hours. It is the perfect amount of time to explore the area. I had an amazing time with my family and highly recommend!

    My brother and I rode the Grand Canyon railway, and it was a great trip. We started the trip…read morewith a night in the Grand Canyon railway hotel. And then rode the train the next day. The Grand Canyon railway depot is actually on the grounds of the Grand Canyon, railway Hotel, directly behind the lobby. The day started with an old western show. Your typical good guys and bad guys, but it was a lot of fun. The actors had plenty of energy, of course they picked on somebody from the audience, and they made it very entertaining The same guys actually "attack" the train on the way back, and they also do an old west show in downtown Williams. these guys keep busy. I can't speak for the regular railroad seats, as we paid for a package that included the Vista Dome car. The seats are upstairs with a great view. The seats were comfortable. The Vista dome seats came with free snacks, and nonalcoholic drinks, , (you can also purchase food on the train,) and they had people from the bar come up to our seats. They have a good choice of cocktails and mocktails. I had the virgin bloody Mary, and it was delicious. It wasn't just tomato juice, it had a great. Flavor. Tangy, with just a little bit of heat. Throughout the train ride, there were people telling stories about the canyon, telling stories about the train, and there was music as well. You have a good amount of time to see the canyon We chose the bus tour and lunch as part of our package. You can also do the bus tour without lunch if you choose, or do things on your own. There is a free shuttle bus to sites around the south rim of the canyon. Lunch was a full all you can eat buffet, not a large number of choices, but very acceptable. A good amount of food, and it was tasty. The bus driver was friendly, and knowledgeable, we stopped at several spots along the canyon, and after our bus tour, we had time to explore Grand Canyon Village before we got back onto the train. The El Tovar hotel is beautiful, very close to the train depot, and it also has a nice gift shop as well. From the show at the beginning of the day, to the time the train came back to Williams, it was a total of about nine hours. A long day, but definitely worth it. For our entire package, including a night at the hotel, the upgraded seats, and the tour with lunch, it was approximately $650 total, with the military discount for the both of us. On the high side, yes, but definitely worth the trip. There is also a $30 charge added on to get into Grand Canyon national Park, my brother has a park pass so we didn't have to pay that. The prices will vary, of course, depending on whether you just go with the train ride, or you choose a full on package It's a great way to see the canyon. Highly recommended. Thank you.

First off, this company does not have an actual "dispatcher". They simply hand a cellphone to whatever driver will be answering their calls that day or night and that is who will be answering their phone calls, WHILE THEY ARE DRIVING regardless if you happen to be in the cab with them at the time or not. This is unsafe to say the least and is also against the law! I have also had drivers smoking, eating, etc. while I was in the back seat with no regard to me whatsoever. At last count this company only has two vehicles and both show obvious signs of previous collisions and both are in sad shape. Secondly, this cab company is the only cab company in Flagstaff that does not use meters in their cabs. I have been charged several different prices for the exact same ride depending on the driver. How do they determine how much they will charge you? I am assuming by how much they think they can get from you. But a more frightening issue is that since COVID-19 has become an issue Top Hat Taxi has not made any changes to the way they still do business. None of their drivers wear masks and regardless of what they may tell you, they do not sanitize their cabs in any way in between fares. You can tell when you sit down in a cab that has been cleaned and a cab that stinks! This cab company also advertises that they are a 24-hour business. Not since COVID-19. Now that the bars in Flagstaff are no longer open the driver on duty will simply turn off their cellphone and go home. I defy anyone to try and reach this company after 9:00pm or so (sometimes even earlier). All you will reach is a voicemail that has not even been set up so you can't even leave them a message. Do yourself a favor if you need a taxi while in Flagstaff; There are numerous other cab companies in Flagstaff to choose from and no matter who you decide to go with any of them will be better than this fly-by-night company.

The ride there was great, semi private and had drinkenu with all these specialty cocktails non alcoholic for the kids. They absolutely loved that. The snacks they advertised were not real snacks I was expecting, it was donut holes, tiny muffins and that was about it. The ride home was also first class but a different car and not anything like our trip there. We were packed with lots of other people, it was pretty dirty and uncomfortable. The person in charge of our car was so much better than on the way but the car was not. No specialty drinks or menu for the kids. They were so disappointed. The snacks were a spread of meats, cheeses, veggies and some bread pretzel bites. So, that was better. The train robbery was kinda silly, aoney grab. They take your photos on the ride there but they lost ours and the price starts at $40 to receive them! For the price, especially upgrading, you think they would give you at least one for free. Anyway, it was a fun experience one time but that's it....a one and done. The hotel was clean and breakfast is included. If we had to pay the receipt said $79 for a family of 4. Very much not worth the price. The fruit looked like it had been frozen and then put out, even the grapes looked old and nasty. Nothing great and you have to wait for a server to order the drinks (coffee, juice, etc). They don't have milk for kids and they expect a tip for literally servicing you juice. Again, a bit silly for a buffet and paying a ton of money. Again, a one and done for us.

COST -- This bus is a FREE shuttle service from the several different locations around the Grand Canyon South Rim. As someone who studied Economics in University, the bus service is really not "free" because you have to pay a national park entrance fee. Lucky for me, I visited the Grand Canyon National Park on National Public Lands day so my admission into the park was free. BUS SCHEDULE -- The bus arrives every 10-15 minutes during the day. NAVIGATION -- First, when you arrive at the Grand Canyon, drive your car to one of the many designated parking spots. Upon parking your car, you will see signs for where to catch the shuttle. The shuttle takes you to several points throughout the Grand Canyon. My friend and I visited the South Kaibab Trail and the shuttle bus took us right to the entrance of the trailhead. We got on the Orange route bus. The ride was smooth and took just under 10 minutes from our starting point. I can't imagine if there were no shuttle buses to drive visitors around because as you know, the Grand Canyon is HUGE. But thank goodness for this free shuttle. If you're lost when you arrive or don't know where a shuttle bus is, there are people around willing to help or I recommend you visit the visitor's center. **** - 155 total reviews in 2019 - 364 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 14 December 2019
