Taieri Gorge Railway tour
沿途風景優美，尤其經過河谷高架橋時，谷底溪水淌流，兩岸黃麻豔豔招搖，還有些許山羊在谷邊岩石上跳躍覓食，真讓人挪不開眼，配上車長先生詳盡風趣的介紹，雖然仍有大部分不懂，但無損風光迷人。

Julie and Maria miss the best bit
Loved the trip up to Pukerangi and were looking forward to enjoying the trip back especially the rocky gorge as we hoped to be outside,, while we were waiting on the return trip for food, we were in the buffet car and on return to our seats realised the best bit was already past. We felt like a couple of dolts but laughed. Well worth the money. Thank you. Just a suggestion for the food and coffee service. a supply of Nescafe coffee sticks would have been most welcome in place of a barista coffee (which wasn't on offer) and easy enough. Otherwise 10 out of 10
