On
summer evenings, it’s not just the stars that come out to play in Verde
Canyon. As the sun slips behind distant mountains, cool air sweeps through
the Canyon signaling the resident wildlife to begin their nightly rounds. The
Canyon comes alive with the luminous glow of moon-kissed skies on Verde
Canyon Railroad’s popular Saturday Starlight Tours. On select Saturday
evenings, the train departs the depot at 5:30 p.m.. As it rumbles through the
Canyon, the low slant of sun bathes the high cliffs in soft golden hues. The
train reaches the turn-around point of Perkinsville amid a scandalous sunset.
The return trip offers a serene glimpse into the nocturnal wildlife set
against a dazzling canvas of celestial bodies. Grape Train Escapes are
rolling wine-tasting adventures where select wineries purvey their wines
which we pair with delectable appetizers. History comes alive around every
bend whether you’re relaxing in the comfort of a first-class car or on an
open-air viewing car enjoying the true essence of Arizona outdoors … with a
glass of wine in your hand.
