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.

Zipline Guide

Hey, I’m Kate! I am originally from the Waikato, but at the moment I am a uni student studying in Christchurch during the year and ziplining in the summer. I’m studying down South and exploring new places has been awesome! I love road trips with friends and anything outdoors or adventurous. I usually spend my summers in the Coromandel with family, and I’m excited to be up here full time as a guide this summer!

Hey my name is Lucy, I grew up in Thames/Auckland, I am currently a uni student in Auckland during the year and a zipline guide this summer! When I’m not slaving away at the library, you can find me going on hikes with my friends, spending all my money on food and swimming at the beach. Can’t wait for an awesome summer on the zipline!

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.
