Though elements of the experiences had been comparable, I believed my prepare trip had extra numerous views of nature in two days than my cruise did in eight days.

One of many Rocky Mountaineer’s principal appeals to me is the views. By the glass-dome home windows, I watched Denver’s cityscape rework into towering Rocky Mountains. As soon as we crossed the border into Utah, the gray rock became rusty pink sandstone, and the plush mountain surroundings was swapped for desert surroundings.
For me, there wasn’t a second all through the entire journey the place I used to be sick of peering out into the horizon searching for the following panorama we might cross.
Then again, the cruise’s principal enchantment was the prolonged record of scheduled actions and the port stops. For the overwhelming majority of the cruise, all I might see was 360-degree views of blue water.
Belize, Honduras, and Cozumel have a various vary of ecosystems, historic landmarks, and surroundings, however sadly, I could not admire most of these views from the cruise deck.
As somebody who loves nature, I believed the Rocky Mountaineer supplied a greater viewing expertise.
