A different way to explore the USA!
Train is one of the most efficient and ecological ways to explore a country and enjoy its landscapes! Board the legendary California Zephyr from San Francisco to Chicago and then the Lake Shore Limited to New York from only $193 / €174! Also works reverse!
Experienced travelers say the California Zephyr is one of the most beautiful train trips in all of North America. As you climb through the heart of the Rockies, and further west through the snow-capped Sierra Nevadas, you may find it hard to disagree. The Zephyr runs daily between Chicago and San Francisco, coursing through the plains of Nebraska to Denver, across the Rockies to Salt Lake City, and then through Reno and Sacramento into Emeryville/San Francisco. Connections in to San Francisco and Oakland stations via Thruway Bus Service at Emeryville, California.
With the Lake Shore Limited you will travel along some of the prettiest shorelines of the USA. The Lake Michigan, the Mohawk River, and the Erie Canal, following a famous Native American Highway are some of the amazing landscapes you’ll experience.
