Flagstaff Getaway, a rail journey with Amtrak Vacations

Amtrak Vacations operates this independent 3-day, 2-night Flagstaff Getaway, based in Flagstaff, Arizona, on old Route 66 with the San Francisco Mountains as a backdrop. The package covers 2 nights of hotel accommodations and a choice of one included sightseeing tour: either the Grand Canyon along with Navajo Nation's native American culture, or Sedona's red rock cliffs and brush-covered hills. Rail travel itself is not included in the price; it is arranged separately by a Rail Expert at your chosen accommodation level, Coach, Roomette, or Bedroom, from any of more than 500 Amtrak stations. This suits travelers who want a short, self-directed rail getaway to a single home base with one clear sightseeing choice rather than a multi-stop itinerary.
