This indicates the overall quality of the tour operator's products. A low rating does not mean it is not good - it just means that it does not include as much, or perhaps is of a more standard quality than the higher quality tours. For example, a 3 star quality rating means that it is a more standard/economical tour, while 5 stars is a very luxurious tour that often includes a lot of amenities.

All aboard Canyon Spirit
It's all aboard Canyon Spirit this morning for a head-turning rail journey from Denver to Glenwood Springs, Colorado. Head into the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, first climbing the steep grade and contour of the Big Ten Curve. The terrain you will see today is varied with river views, deep rugged canyons, ranch life and engineering marvels. As the train approaches the Continental Divide, the train will go under the mountainous terrain through the legendary 6.2-mile-long Moffat Tunnel. A National Engineering Landmark built by the Moffat Railroad, it was the longest tunnel in the Western Hemisphere when it was completed in 1927. The train will transit numerous tunnels along the route before it arrives in Glenwood Springs, a quintessential mountain town with historic hot springs. Lunch onboard is a special treat and is brought right to your seat as you sit back and enjoy the views from the panoramic windows of your coach, recalling a bygone era of opulent train travel with its pampering Silver Leaf Plus service. Disembark for an overnight stay at a historic hotel in Glenwood Springs, located in the heart of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. The site of the world's largest mineral hot springs pool, the thermal waters of this town have been enticing visitors since 1888.

See the landscape change as it opens up into the vast desert vistas that are famous the world over. The train winds its way through crimson-colored sandstone to reveal a visible geologic timeline that is older than the dinosaurs as it weaves through Ruby Canyon and on to Moab. Moab is home to two national parks, Arches and Canyonlands, renowned for their unrivaled geologic wonders.

View them by air this morning as you embark on an eye-opening flightseeing excursion that takes in its grand geologic diversity. Back on land, you'll have time at leisure to enjoy and explore Moab on your own before heading out to Canyonlands National Park for a grounded, sightseeing experience. Dinner tonight will be at your leisure in Moab.

Back in Moab, you have a choice of activities today including a jet boat excursion on the Colorado River or a 4x4 Hummer tour that excites with off-road discoveries in bumpy outdoor terrain.
