Hop aboard your own self-drive railway car and enjoy epic 360-degree views of Lake Rotorua and rolling farmland.
Was really good something different to do very nice and friendly people running it
This is a very unique outing for couples,singles and families. The commentary was super insightful along the trip. Make sure to wear a warm jacket as it gets chilly. Complimentary tea and coffee at the half way mark was a lovely treat.
Thank you Bernie for your feedback, We are glad you could join us! You are right, it can get a bit chilly so we recommend bringing a jacket, although our guests can also put down the see through sides to stop the breeze while they are travelling. ------------------------------ Dear Bernie, Thank you for your feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed your experience with us! You are absolutely correct about the temperature some days. We do recommend bringing a jacket for warmth, and we also remind our guests that they can lower the see-through sides of the Rail Cruisers to block the wind during their journey but many like the freedom of having nothing in between the view! We hope you join us again in the future
A great experience as a one off. Pleased we did it.
Thanks Yvonne for joining us and for your review. We are glad you enjoyed the experience.
What nice way to spend a couple of hours, rattling along basically hands free looking at the country side and views of the lake. Great experience and lovely young staff to organise you and meet you at the return point, offering refreshments then sending you back to the starting point.
Thank you for your kind review! We're delighted that you enjoyed your experience. We think our staff are just awesome too! Look forward to seeing you on another trip in the future!
