Arthur's Pass National Park Visitor Centre
Follow the old stage coach route and travel down the spectacular Otira Gorge, testament to the road builders of the 1860's and the route taken by the Maori in their quest for greenstone. View Cave Stream where it burrows underground in an area of limestone cliffs and gorges, craggy outcrops and a setting of mountains to the east and west. This area was also used as for the filming of C.J Lewis’ story – “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”. The incredible Castle Hill rocks, unique weatherworn, rain smoothed outcrops of limestone are seen from the highway. Lunch at a country hotel, included in cost of tour.

5.00We had a fantastic day with a ride up on the train, getting off at Arthur’s Pass and then meeting up with Grant, our driver. Grant took us to a hike up to a beautiful waterfalls, then lunch and home stopping at Castle Hill Rocks. Grant was a great guide keeping us informed and interested in all things Kiwi. (Don’t forget headphones for the train ride.)

5.00From the wonderful rail service to our accommodating and seasoned small group tour guide, John, this trip will be one well remembered for many years!! not only was the landscape along the rail line up to Arthur’s Pass spectacular, the flora and fauna portion of the motor coach tour back to Christchurch marvelous. We saw Kea and all manner of local birds along the nature hike and then an unexpected highlight was the Kura Tāwhiti rock formations stop! Stunning experience! Highly Recommended!

5.00The park itself is stunning. The train ride is beyond incredibly beautiful. That we got to see it all even more thoroughly with this tour is icing on the cake. Ollie picked us up at our hotel in Christchurch and drove us to the train station. He got us situated on the train and told us what to expect. 2+ hours later, he was waiting for us as we disembarked. Ollie took us to many scenic points, on a hike up to Devil’s Punchbowl waterfall, and then to lunch at Grasmere sheep station (a good selection of delicious food). Ollie was knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and a pleasure to spend the whole day with. We highly recommend this tour, as well as Ollie leading it.

5.00Great day with our tour guide Roger. We really felt we had the opportunity to experience everything on this trip to the stunning area of Arthur's Pass. Such spectacular scenery. The trip made everything easy. The train was fun and we also had a couple of short walks (40 mins) to really soak up the atmosphere of the mountains and surrounding area. Tour includes a lunch with your fellow travellers and some hints and tips from the tour guide along the way. Would recommend this trip.

5.00Amazing experience! First, we took the train to Arthur’s Pass, where we could go to an open carriage and take photos of the scenery. Then Stuart picked us up from the station and showed us around, took us on some beautiful walks. Lunch was also included. Stuart gave us many information about the area, and stopped along the way as required. He then dropped us off and gave us a great recommendation for dinner. Highly recommend!
