We absolutely loved it! It was so much fun! We did the early morning tour. The temp was a perfect 70 degrees. The staff were very informative and nice. Will definitely be recommending it to all our family and friends. We will definitely be back to do it again!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We visited on a Sunday afternoon in early June and had a blast with our two teen sons. Andrews is such a beautiful area to explore. During the ride we crossed over the water several times throughout our trip, enjoyed the cool shade (great for those hot summer days!), the picnic area was so pretty, and our guide was hysterical! We will definitely be returning, hopefully in the fall next time to see the leaves changing color! We had so much fun!!!

We enjoyed the rail tour. It's rain or shine, so dress comfortably for the weather. The crew that guided us was great, very friendly! It was fun and did require pedaling. There's a battery charger to help you along, but it doesn't provide too much boost. Definitely a fun way to see the valleys and mountains! The cave was really neat too. Pack a small cooler for the ride to enjoy when you stop at the cave. 5 stars!

We had a great ride on the rail bike today. It was just my husband and I. They were completely sold out. Everything from the ordering of the tickets to the parking and staff was amazing. The staff was very helpful, friendly and some comical. The cave carved out of the mountain was the best. Also, if you're not sure you're able to do it, just give it a try it's a pedal assist and you're not really doing a whole lot of work. I had double hip replacement 2 years ago and didn't have a bit of trouble. Would recommend! I would recommend getting tickets prior to coming online.

This was a birthday event/trip for my husband and he loved it! We had a unique experience with the rail bikes to remember. Besides, we enjoyed incredible natural beauty of wild flowers, wild turkeys, and rushing creeks & streams in the fresh mountain air.
The crew that guided our trip seemed to love sharing the experience and were committed to our safety.
There was an option not to pedal, but to ride if desired, but we were fine and enjoyed the pedaling.

I have been wanting to go on this tour for a couple of years now, but they were booked the weekends we could go. We finally booked it a few weeks in advance, and we are so thankful we did because we had an absolute blast! It was me, my husband, and my parents on one car. We laughed so hard the entire time. The owner’s son gave us the safety brief and interesting information along the tour. It was such a beautiful trip. He did scare us at the beginning that it was a steep trip up, but it wasn’t as bad as we anticipated. All of the guides were very funny and helpful. We highly recommend this tour, and booking in advance because it does get full!

A Fun and Scenic Adventure with Andrew’s Valley Rail Tours

We had such a great time pedalling our railway bikes at Andrew’s Valley Rail Tours! The ride was a perfect blend of fun, light exercise, and soaking in the natural beauty around us. We enjoyed the peaceful countryside, with the sun shining down and cattle grazing in the open fields — it was truly relaxing.

One of the highlights was stopping over a river, where we got to take in the cool breeze and rest before heading back. It was a refreshing break that made the experience even more enjoyable.

Just a quick tip for future riders: bring some water to stay hydrated, wear a sun hat, and don’t forget to apply sunscreen before you start your adventure. It’s a fantastic outdoor activity for all ages and a great way to spend time in nature!

For our group of 8 we opted for the cart option. This was a good choice for my son who is into photography and has the covered area for some of our party who are UV sensitive. The staff were all magnificent and we enjoyed a lovely trip together. Was happy to support this cute little community.
Thanks!
