Reviews

Rarely has the advertising slogan “Let the train take the strain” been so appropriate!nnFrom the helpful staff at check-in to the service by the on-board team, the train travel experience was great. What a stark contrast to the UK…nnAnd I haven’t yet mentioned the effortless viewing of the land and seascape which unfolded as we made our way South along the coast to Kaikoura.nnI recommend seats 5A and 5B which face the direction of travel so the coast is to your left and you have an unobstructed view out of the window we actually sat in 6A and 6B which have a pillar in one’s line of sight looking forward.nnThis carriage A was next to the restaurant car and toilet, so it’s double-convenient.nnAnd in another invidious comparison with UK train operators, there was something worth eating and drinking! Not only that, having ordered at the counter the hot drinks were delivered to our seats - so no stressing about spillage!nnThere’s an open viewing wagon which my partner tried for a minute - there’s windchill involved so do wear a coat - but I was perfectly content to see from my seat.nnAll in all a great way to get from Picton to Kaikoura.

Small station to catch the train, only for check in is offered here.nPark across the street with toliets

Beautiful Train Station. Kept in its original state. Some days there are vintage days where people dress up and all the vintage cars come out of the woodwork. Great location, Toilets, and staff.

Nice we Railway station with a subway shop built in and start ponit for two scenic train journeys.

Journey takes around 5.5 hours. The seats are comfy with plenty of leg room. Headphones provided for GPS activated commentary. Refreshments available were reasonably priced and a decent selection.nNo need to take a book - the ever changing scenery provides all the entertainment you need, especially along the Coastal section, where spotting the seals and searching for dolphins is fun.nStaff friendly and helpful.
