Around the World Wine Tour

The Georgetown Loop’s Wine Tasting and Hors d'Oeuvres Train is now better than ever. This year we are “traveling the” globe seeking out special wines for you to sample along with our scrumptious hors d’oeuvres created by our ingenious Chef. You can “travel” from Australia to South Africa and Colorado to Argentina. Our wines have been selected by the staff at Applejack Wine & Liquor in Wheat Ridge for their high rating in wine review publications.

For those wine aficionados out there we are offering a special. Call our office and we will sign you up for five different wine trains of your choice but you will only have to pay for four. That’s a 20% savings on your summer wine pleasure. There are thirteen different wine travels to pick from at the beginning of the season so act fast and make your selections now. This special is only available if you call our office and mention “WINE TOUR”.

Bring a group of your friends and have a summer World travel party.

Journey To Another Time on a Scenic and Historic Train Ride ...

The Georgetown Loop Railroad brings Colorado history to life in a fun adventure that will thrill the entire family. The beauty of the rugged Rocky Mountains surrounds you as an old-time steam locomotive or one of our powerful diesel locomotives winds up the Clear Creek canyon, hauling your train past the remains of several gold and silver mines. Our fully enclosed as well as our open cars allow a breath taking view of everything along the line. Departures are available from the Silver Plume Depot or Devil’s Gate Station in Georgetown during the regular season. Trains operating after Columbus Day only operate from the Devil’s Gate Station in Georgetown. Gift shops at both ends of the line offer outstanding selections of railroad themed items, books, clothing, snack foods, and hot and cold drinks. Food is permitted on the train.
