Alpine Safari: Transportation Adventure
Photo provided by Great Sights/Explorer Tourline
Explore New Zealand's Canterbury region via four different modes of transport—coach, jet boat, four-wheel drive, and TranzAlpine train.
Experience adventure four different ways! A coach takes you across the Canterbury Plains to the Waimakariri Gorge and River, where you'll take a thrilling jet boat ride along the whitewater rapids. Next, a rugged 4WD takes you up a steep incline to a section of the region's original stagecoach route. The day ends with a scenic trip back to Christchurch on the TranzAlpine train; you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the sights of what has been called "one of the top six train journeys in the world."
