While you are in Sedona over Valentine’s Day weekend, make sure to take a savory ride on the Verde Canyon Railroad’s Chocolate Lover’s Train.
Verde Canyon Railroad’s Chocolate Lover’s Festival is an annual event scheduled to coincide with the Valentine’s Day season. This year it runs from February 10-14 and makes a delicious outing for sweethearts, or anyone with a sweet tooth.
Ride the rails into one of Arizona’s most wildly scenic and undisturbed canyons where you’ll discover the perfect backdrop for romance. Revel in the breath-snatching sights of the Verde Canyon while savoring hot cocoa, flavored coffee, specialty cocktails and a platter of sumptuous chocolate goodies. Enjoy the plush comfort of a first-class rail car and access to open air gondolas with friends, family or your one and only Valentine.
Few foodstuffs hold us so tightly in their sway as does chocolate. Cocoa butter melts at body temperature so the sensation of a chocolate morsel dissolving in a heavenly puddle on our tongue is seared in our memory. It’s exactly the kind of experience you want to share with a special someone. The same can be said for the romance of a train ride.
Just remember, if you’ve got melted chocolate all over your hands, you’re eating too slowly.
Tickets are $89.95 per person, and reservations are available by visiting Verde Canyon Railroad.
