Contact Rail Trail Services We organise Rail Trailbikes, panniers and luggage forwarding. We are ticketing agents for all Central Otago transport services from Dunedin, Queenstown and Wanaka, airport shuttle to Dunedin, the Taieri Gorge Railway's scenic train and the Dunedin-Middlemarch-Clyde-Queenstown Rail Trail Shuttle service. Our base in Middlemarch is bus pick-up and drop-off point for passengers, mountain bikes and luggage. We can also arrange rental cars.

We organise air transport between Queenstown and Clyde/Alexandra or Middlemarch (minimum 2) and airport shuttle in Queenstown. Passengers flying from Middlemarch may like to fly over the Rail Trail to see their ride from the air. All passengers have a window seat to enjoy the amazing scenery as well as an individual headset to hear the pilot's informative commentary.

We organise accommodation anywhere on the Rail Trail whether for groups or individuals, and we offer all types of accommodation (motels, cabins, B & B, backpackers, tent sites and power points).

From our extensive experience we understand the issues as evidenced by our many happy customers.

We would like to thank you all (Marnie, Donna, Claire and any others who might have helped) for organizing our Rail Trail trip.

We had a great time, the weather was kind, the scenery magnificent, the bikes comfortable and well maintained, the accommodation excellent, and our hosts all very hospitable. This included the loan of her car by the owner of No 9 B&B in Ranfurly so that we could visit Naseby and try curling.

The spa pool at Hawkesview in Omakau was a bonus that we did not expect, as were the pre-dinner drinks at The Mill House in Oturehua.

All in all, a wonderful experience and a service that we would have no hesitation in recommending to our friends.

Regards

Maxine & Denis Gadd
