    What a beautiful way to see the countryside of the North Island. Everyone talks about the scenery on the South Island, but the North Island is just as beautiful. There are two options which I was not made aware of making the booking. There is the scenic tour and the scenic plus. Scenic plus gives you meals and the pleasure of using the dining car. You can still get packaged food and drinks in the scenic tour for $. I saw a lot of people bring their own food. There are restrooms on the train. You have an assigned seat, so you don’t have to plow your way on to the train. Overhead racks are at each seat for your belongings. Be patient when getting your luggage at the end of the journey, it is not very organized. Someone from the train will be out at the station to help you find a ride, Uber is my go to. They did have a few vans that would drop you off at your hotel but would make several stops. If you use a cab, make sure it is the blue dome ones. Apparently there are others that will scam you into a ride. Overall it was a good experience.

    It was a great train ride, very comfortable, but long. The viewing carriage was good but windy and hard to hold and take photos!

    The ride was LONG. I wanted to experience the scenery. Although scenic it isn't worth the time to spend. Flight is probably a savings.

  • Great train journey
