The Agawa Canyon Tour Train is highly regarded as a premier day trip for those visiting Sault Ste. Marie, particularly during the fall. Most reviewers praise the spectacular scenery and the well-organized nature of the tour. The staff receives consistent compliments for being helpful and providing interesting information throughout the eight-hour journey. Families and those with accessibility needs appreciate the comfortable seating and the availability of a lift. While the majority of visitors are enchanted by the forest views, a few reviewers noted that much of the trip passes through dense tree lines, which can limit long-range visibility. It is widely recommended to bring your own food and drinks for a picnic at the canyon, as on-board options can be sparse.
