Explore Eugene and Save 30%

One of Oregon’s best kept secrets? Eugene. If you’ve been to Portland and its sister city Seattle, it’s time to check out a city known for the great outdoors, craft beers, and arts scene. If you’re looking for a digital detox and a fun way to get to a new POV, we’re the way to go. Here’s why:

• The gorgeous Coast Starlight and Cascades (two Amtrak routes that serve Eugene) are famous for their stunning #AmtrakViews. Whether it’s the emerald forests of Oregon shrouded in early morning mist, or cool blue waters that meet the tracks, life is sweet with a brew and Amtrak ticket in hand.
• Why take Amtrak? It’s simply the best way to travel (and yes we are paid to say that, but don’t take our word for it — check out real riders’ stories here and here). We’re comfortable, affordable, and unique. The magic of train travel is only on our rails, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
• Speaking of affordable…you’re not going to want to miss this deal: Right now if you book your #AmtrakAdventure before May 31 you can save 30% off your ticket.
