Six years ago, a friend of mine vacationed in a private rail car with his family. I got to ride in it for three hours [1], and just that trip spoiled me for all further travel.
My friend never did say what it cost him. I suspect it was the price of a low-end car, but given that he had the car for over a week, and it came with dining and sleeping arrangements for 9 people (him, his family, in his laws, the chef and conductor) he doesn't regret it.

- loonster 5y agoThat looks like a lot of fun. >Typical pricing for a trip is along the lines of a high-end cruise. On average, the all-inclusive costs typically can run between $2,500 and $7,000 or more per car per day. But remember, a rail car may accommodate 6, 8, 10, 20 people or more. https://www.aaprco.com/travel/where-do-i-start/chartering-a-car-some-things-you-should-know/ https://www.aaprco.com/travel/where-do-i-start/chartering-a-... Still looks like a lot of fun, but 20k-56k for 8day trip... I can't do that.
