Grand National Parks with Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Glacier National Park

Fifteen-day Amtrak journey to Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Glacier

Railbookers operates this 15-day, 14-night independent rail package across the United States, visiting three national parks: Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Glacier National Park. The route starts in Chicago and travels by Amtrak across the Great Plains and through the Rocky Mountains to Salt Lake City and West Yellowstone, the gateway to Yellowstone National Park. From there the route continues to San Francisco and Yosemite National Park, then Seattle and north to Glacier National Park, described as endless natural beauty and pristine wilderness, before returning to Chicago. As an independent rail package, travelers move between destinations on their own schedule rather than with a guide, with Amtrak travel and hotels arranged by Railbookers. This suits travelers who want to see several national parks on one long rail journey. Prices start from $6,499 USD.
