The train trip of your dreams!
Hands down, one of the best (and cheapest) ways to see America's vast beauty is by train. Don't believe me? Then allow me to introduce you to Amtrak's Coast Starlight, which has been called "one of America's most beautiful train rides" since the 1940s.
Starting in Seattle and ending in Los Angeles, the Coast Starlight train trip takes passengers through Washington, Oregon, and California, allowing them to see stunning views of the West Coast's mountains, forests, valleys, and Pacific Ocean. Passengers can take in the sights from the observation car, which is decked out in floor to ceiling windows and comfortable swivel chairs.
And according to travelers, America's most magnificent train ride lives up to its reputation. "My jaw dropped as the landscape outside changed from green valleys to rolling mountains and hills, to lush forests, cows on fields and snow-covered trees, to little neighborhoods and beautiful shorelines," one passenger wrote for Inquirer.net. "It truly was a sight to behold."
When booking your trip, you'll want to consider all the options. Travelers can opt for the "Superliner Roomette" tickets, which come with a bed for overnight travels and your very own sightseeing window in your cabin. Business class tickets also come with amenities like on-board wine and cheese tastings. And everyone over 65 should take advantage of the special discount for seniors—you can save 15 percent on your next adventure!
The entire route takes 35+ hours and travels through 30 destinations, including Olympia-Lacey, Portland, Sacramento, the San Francisco Bay area, and Santa Barbara. On the trip, riders will see the Cascade Range, Mount Shasta, the Santa Barbara Channel, several national parks and forests, and, of course, the Pacific coastline.
