Other visitors' reviews of TranzAlpine: Scenic Train Christchurch - Greymouth
Show More ReviewsIt turns out that the scenery is not as good as described on the Internet. In fact, the scenery while driving in New Zealand is not worse than this. Anyway, it's OK. It was quite quiet on the way there, but on the way back, a Chinese tour group got on and made a lot of noise, which reduced the experience of this train.
