Groups
We love hosting groups on the Solar Train. We host tour groups, corporate groups, wedding parties, garden clubs, Probus Clubs, Rotary Clubs, choirs, family groups, school groups and more.
Our staff are able to provide a talk about the Solar Train to your group, either on your coach, the platform or our train.
We can do a special return run within our normal operating hours at no additional cost, depending upon the numbers of your group. We can also allocate your group a whole carriage or compartment. Pricing can be provided for “out of hours” private bookings.
To help you make the most of the experience we have partnered with The North Byron Hotel*, located across the road from the North Beach Station, to offer Ride in Style packages:
There is no need to book your Ride in Style packages unless you are a group of ten or more people. If you are under ten people just rock up, pay on the train and the staff will look after you. If you are a group of ten or more people please provide a weeks’ notice.
Alternatively you can contact Tara by email on groups@byronbaytrain.com.au
* The North Byron Hotel is set in bushland with a stunning outlook from the timber deck. Meals are inspired and priced to please. The North Byron Hotel boasts a large variety of craft beers as well as old favourites. The wine list includes a selection of natural and minimal intervention wines. The Hotel is child friendly with a large grassy area for kids to play.
“The Byron Solar Train is an attraction well worth visiting. We regularly send sold-out tours to visit the area and experience the train ride, informational talk, sightseeing and food. Our passengers, many of whom are repeat customers, thoroughly enjoy their visit to Byron Bay and particularly the Solar Train.” Brad Suosaari, All Australian Journeys, Cross Country Tours
