The Amtrak offers the most amazing cross country routes with the best service available in travel. The staff on board are trained to ensure that your journey is as relaxing and enjoyable as possible, catering to your every holiday need. All members of the Amtrak team are assigned to certain cabins within the train, being able to provide special attention to all passengers ensuring that their travel experience is of the best quality.

The accommodation on board is modern and spacious with an en suite, allowing you to enjoy your tour in complete privacy.

Dinner reservations at the Empire Builder’s cool restaurant can be made by asking a member of staff. This exquisite regional meal, crafted by on board chefs can either be served in the dining cabins, or if you are looking for something more intimate, then passengers staying in the sleeper cabin have the option of dining in their room.

If you are a person that seeks adventure, socialising and loves sightseeing, then taking a seat in the large panoramic windowed lounge would be the perfect experience. The stunning scenery from this cabin creates conversation among fellow travellers, developing new friendships along the way.
