6-Day Tour of Yellowstone National Park in the United States | Two-Day Train Tour on Day 1-Day 2

The best season for visiting Yellowstone National Park is from May to October, during which time all entrances to the park are open. On June 1, 2019, our family of three, along with four elderly people, set out from Los Angeles for five nights and six days, traveling by train, self-driving, and plane to visit Yellowstone Park in its best season. 【Day1: Amtrak to San Francisco】: On the first day, at 7:59 in the morning, take Amtrak's most famous "Coastline" from Santa Ana Train Station, change to the bus provided by the railway company in San Luis Obispo, and arrive in San Francisco at 8:25 in the evening (the train ticket fee includes the bus fee). Stay overnight in San Francisco. [Day2-Amtrak to Salt Lake City]: On the second day, we took the Amtrak "Zephyr" at 9:10 am and departed from the San Francisco Bay. We passed through the foggy wetlands and listened to the history of the Pacific Railway explained by the staff of the Sacramento Railway Museum in the capital of California. We saw the year-round snow caused by the train entering the high-altitude areas of the Sierra Mountains. We passed by Donner Lake and learned about the hardships of Chinese workers building tunnels a hundred years ago. Until we turned into the desert area, we encountered a rainbow after dark clouds and heavy rain in the distance, as well as the sunset in the desert. We stayed on the train that night. In one day, you can experience all four seasons and see all the beautiful scenery.
