Steam Train Tours

If you enjoy everything to do with railways, take a whistle-stop tour of Steam Train. The displays here tell the story of the role trains have played throughout history.

You'll soon learn why this Oamaru rail transportation exhibition is a hit with travelers. If you're looking for more to do and see here, Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony, Oamaru Harbour, and Oamaru Gardens are in the area as well. They won't take long to reach from Steam Train.

We had a lovely stay, the room was clean and the beds very comfortable and warm. Loved the shower room which seemed freshly renovated. Lovely attention to detail with bright decorative elements whoch make for a cosy stay, nice offering of tea and coffee making facilities too.
