Thought Wanaka Was Beautiful Enough... Then I Went to Queenstown! 😍✨

#summervacay This leg of our trip, from Wanaka to Queenstown, truly highlights how our New Zealand journey has been a continuous process of being utterly captivated and "healed" by its beauty. I genuinely thought Wanaka was already stunning enough, but after arriving in Queenstown, I discovered it could be even more chill and relaxing! 😌 Besides skydiving, I'll be sharing Queenstown's classic activities and nearby attractions in two separate posts. We happened to visit during Christmas, so if you're planning a trip around the holidays, definitely save this – you won't have to worry about everything being closed! 😉 TSS Earnslaw Steamship: A Must-Do! 🚢 As the only coal-fired passenger steamship still operating in the Southern Hemisphere, the TSS Earnslaw is absolutely worth experiencing! We chose the combination package that included the steamship cruise, a BBQ lunch, and a farm tour. This way, we not only got to enjoy the beautiful views of Lake Wakatipu from the boat but also had the chance to tour the ship's interior and see firsthand how the steam engine works. It's a fantastic blend of scenic beauty and historical insight! #queenstown #newzealand #wanaka
