Starlight Tours
The “Stars” of Arizona come out to play at Verde Canyon Railroad

When you’re visiting the Verde River Valley and Sedona this summer make sure to check out the ultimate Starlight Tour into the scenic Verde Canyon with the Verde Canyon Railroad! There are a few tours in the Sedona-Verde Valley that I would do over and over again. The Starlight Tours with the Verde Canyon Railroad is definitely on of them!

On summer evenings, it’s not just the stars in the sky 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. The train departs the depot at 5:30 p.m. and 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.
