Your docent will lead your group through trip tips tending to your trip details. Part of the VIP treatment includes getting to meet the train's engineer and conductor and the opportunity to ask them first-hand what makes this train so special. All in all, a great investment for your clients. $200 charge per group/ride-- advance reservations must be made. Coordinate with Ronnica Lopez, our Group Reservation Manager, at 1-888-286-2737.
