Sacramento Rivertrain

A friend and I did the 2 hour weekender express and we had so much fun! The scenery is part of the river and lots of farmland. The train itself was very well kept and the bathrooms were clean. The open air cars were very fun and the closed ones were also really cool and had AC. Every staff member we met was super friendly! The music was a mix of party anthems and some oldies like love shack. My one comment about the drinks (which were large pours and a great selection) is that these are a lot of the same brands you can buy at the grocery store.

What an awesome experience! Visited the River Fox train for an Easter event for the kids this past Sunday. I've been on similar events on the Sacramento train museum and I really think River Fox presents a much better experience. Keep in mind, these are a bit more pricey but this is the most fun I've had on this type of events that are family oriented. First thing is that this trip was not as busy as I expected and it was nice to go on a Easter event that wasn't completely packed to the gills. The train was half full and the staff was really accommodating. While there wasn't exactly too many activities it was nice to just walk around on the train and the kid to enjoy walking around and staring out the windows. It's true that it is as picturesque as something like the Napa Valley wine train. It was still an awesome experience on this hour train ride. There was an Easter Bunny that walked around and we were able to get pictures. There was also a concession stand a bar tender that offered a bottomless mimosa package. Of course I partook in this option and it contributed to my enjoyment. Shout out to the bar tender who had just started the week before (I believe his name was Tyler, I'm bad with names haha) and he really made the experience more enjoyable. After the train ride, there was the park were the kids got even more enjoyment with a bounce structure, sack racing and some various smaller games around. Some paid and some free, my kids got a couple hours of enjoyment out of the park and they have a concession stand that serves food. Great visit and hope to try out their other events!

It was more fun than expected. It was a quick 1hr ride. 5 miles down and 5 miles back. They provide helmet but you can bring your own as well. It doesn’t require a lot of effort but if you get tired, there is a motorized part to the bike as well to give you a boost. You can’t get off the bikes to take pictures. You file the tour guides as a group. The passenger in the bike can take pictures while on the bikes. At the 5-mile mark, you have to get off so they can turn the bikes around so you have a short slot to get some pictures in.

We went there for Christmas train ride and it was blast !! We thoroughly enjoyed the ride and activities and they decorated the whole train so beautifully 😍❤️ Please visit this place for their Christmas train for sure. hope to visit for other ride options in future!
