This was a relaxing ride throughout the woods. It was an alright tour; there wasn't too much scenery but we still have fun along the way.

The elegant dinner train is my favorite. The meal is good and the atmosphere is perfect. Unlike a resteraunt there are no kids allowed under... More

My parents were visiting which was also my father's last visit. Knowing that he loved trains (his family lived in a converted box car for many years,) I thought taking them on the 'dinner train' would be a nice trip for them. It was a 5 star meal and a very nice train ride. Everybody enjoyed it.

I have never written a review before, but I felt I should share experience with you. We were excited that we just gotten there in time to buy tickets for the rail and sail. Once a board, which they already told us was not air conditioned in the middle of summer, we agreed to go with the windows open and... More

It chugged along into the inner part of Cape Cod which one wouldn't see by driving in a car. The trip lasted an hour and a half... More

The food was excellent, but the train tour did not show much of anything but trees and Cranberry Bogs!

It was an interesting ride. Tickets were reasonably priced. There were a few interesting sites passed on the tour, such as F Lee Baileys property. He was one of the famous lawyer's involved in the OJ Simpson trial regarding the death of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.

Super event to bring tourist friends...price too high though...more would go if it were lower. It is higher than a bus trip to Boston.
