How can I get information about train and bus travel within New Zealand?
If you have the time, NZ is a beautiful country to see from a train, bus or ferry. Nelson is not on a train line, with the nearest stops being Blenheim and Picton, about 100 miles away. However, there is good bus service both locally and long distance. The following websites give details about various ground travel options in New Zealand, including a TravelPass good for any number of days of ground travel (and sometimes with an added flight for the return trip).
