Reviews: Arthur's Pass: TranzAlpine Train and Castle Hill Day Tour
Guest User2026-02-20
A thoroughly enjoyable tour. Since you travel part of the way by train and part by car/bus, you get a fantastic and varied view of the landscape. The two short hikes were also very nice. However, it's not suitable for people who aren't very mobile, as the hike to the waterfall involves many steps.

A grrat day out with adequate time for investigating at various lookouts and walking tracks. Interesting commentary and friendly bus environment. The highlight of our NZ trip for my partner.

We really enjoyed our day trip during which we saw the beautiful mountains and got to walk among the huge rocks of Castle Hill. Sophie our guide was very thoughtful and efficient. We had a great lunch and snacks. We were well taken care of. We would have enjoyed a bit more commentary but it was well worth the time and cost.

Had an amazing time even though I joined solo! The driver was super fun and made sure everyone felt safe and had a great time. By the end, it honestly felt like we were all one big family. Definitely worth joining this tour! Also, the music in the car was so good — it felt like a whole story from start to finish, almost like being in a movie.

The fish and chips included in the itinerary were absolutely delicious—the best fish and chips I've ever had! Unfortunately, we weren't lucky enough to see a whale flip over during whale watching, but we did see countless dolphins, which was truly spectacular! The tour included many scenic stops and views, making the whole trip very enjoyable and relaxing!
