Train travel in New Zealand is simply magic. Each of the three scenic rail journeys are as different as night and day - from the rugged coastline seen from the TranzCoastal to the mountain scenery from the TranzApline. The views from The Overlander show you New Zealand's diverse countryside in one trip; towering viaducts,  spectacular gorges, hidden valleys. You can sit back, relax and enjoy some of the finest scenery in the world.  

Your travel is in airconditioned carpeted carriages with comfortable reclining seats, panoramic  windows and a team of friendly staff to provide assistance.

Some trains have special viewing carriages and some have paired seating around tables which is great for families, groups or for meeting new friends. Your train crew will point out scenic highlights and provide a little historical and cultural background on the places you travel through.

A selection of snacks, meals and drinks can also be purchased on board.  All Tranz Scenic trains are licensed to sell alcohol.

So come and join a Tranz Scenic train journey and experience New Zealand's unique beauty.
