Coromandel Zipline Tours

Along the way you will hear about Driving Creek’s transformation from kauri logging and gold mining to a thriving hand-planted native forest, a haven for regenerating kauri trees and kiwi.

Hey I'm Caitlin and I'm from Edinburgh in Scotland. I only just arrived in New Zealand in November and I'm already in love with the beautiful Coromandel Peninsula. Back in Scotland I was an outdoor instructor teaching paddlesports as well as working up in the trees on high ropes courses. I love running, hiking, swimming and look forward to exploring more of New Zealand on my days off.

Hi my name is Susan. I grew up coming to Driving Creek Railway regularly with my family. Barry Brickell, the creator of DCR, is my great uncle. I enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, biking and sailing. Currently I’m studying traditional herbal medicine and New Zealand sign language, both through online schools. I look forward to seeing you on the zipline.

Hey my name is Summer, I grew up in Taupo but spend my winters at Mt Ruapehu and summers (Ha) in the tropical Coromandel! You can find me basking on a beach or shredding on the mountain. Yeww!

Hey my name's Bailey, originally from Hamilton! I am currently studying down in Queenstown and here at Driving Creek on an internship program. I enjoy all things outdoors from kayaking to camping and hiking! I am also really into cars and anything to do with a motor, mostly into older Japanese cars that I spend my time tinkering around with and fixing / building.

Hey guys my name is Luke. I’m a part time engineer apprentice, conservationist, tennis coach and zipline guide. I am attempting to start my own business making top water fishing lures (though it’s early days). I grew up in Colville in the heart of a nature reserve. My family are proud conservationists and love anything outdoors. I love sports (mainly tennis and badminton). I went to school in Coromandel and graduated top of my class. In my free time you’ll find me in, on-top or around the water, most likely trying to catch the mighty kingfish.

I’m studying down South and exploring new places has been awesome! I love road trips with friends and anything outdoors or adventurous.
