Watch this video to experience TWO of the world’s most scenic trains in New Zealand: The TranzAlpine and Coastal Pacific on New Zealand's Stunning South Island! In this New Zealand Travel Guide, we’ll explore New Zealand’s South Island by rail!

The TranzAlpine and Coastal Pacific trains traverse some of the planet’s most unbelievable landscapes. From Greymouth on the rainforested West Coast, we’ll traverse the Southern Alps to Christchurch. From there, we’ll head north toward Wine Country, while hugging the Pacific Coast, watching waves crash and spotting seals, dolphins, and other sea mammals.

The TranzAlpine and Coastal Pacific trains offer some of the most incredible rail adventures possible.

We’ll check out everything onboard, too. Including the café car and its selections of tasty snacks and meals. We’ll fully investigate the openair observation car on both the TranzAlpine and the Coastal Pacific.
