Escape by rail into the heart of New Zealand

Take a well-earned break into the blissful New Zealand countryside for a few days of welcome relaxation. 

Our scenic rail short breaks and train tour packages make life as easy as it can be. We'll organise everything for you, so all you have to do is arrive at the station with your suitcase packed. Best of all, your short break begins the moment you step aboard the train, sit back, relax, and soak up the scenery. 

Reinvigorate your mind and refresh your body on a great escape by rail.
