Great New Zealand Steam Train Journeys

Relive the days when steam was king and locomotives had a very special drama and excitement about them…the days when the sound of the steam whistle was one of the most romantic sounds echoing through the landscape.
Glide through the glorious New Zealand landscape on a steam adventure and enjoy the romance and nostalgia of a bygone era with fellow travellers. Great New Zealand Steam Journeys offer three unique rail itineraries aboard beautifully restored steam locomotives that take in the highlights of both the North and South islands. Ideal for both rail enthusiasts and travellers looking for something just a little different, these journeys are designed to show the highlights of a wonderful country in time frame that fits.
The Journeys
New Zealand’s rail routes run through some of the country’s most stunning scenery making rail travel an ideal way to see the sights. On these journeys you’ll also travel on some lines that are otherwise closed to passengers, providing a quite unique privilege from Auckland on the North Island to Dunedin in the South.

All train travel is at a leisurely pace for 2 to 3 hours at a time allowing plenty of time to explore the local attractions. You’ll be able to discover the unspoilt beauty of New Zealand in a wonderfully relaxed and evocative fashion.
Excursions
To allow greater flexibility in the choice of excursions available Great NZ Steam Train Journeys operate a point system for excursions incorporated into the price of your holiday. You can then pick and choose from a wide range of sightseeing and activities to suit your interests. Points can be added during the journey to be debited from your credit card at the end of your journey.
