Reviews: Queenstown TSS + Farm Half-Day Tour [Choose from Lake Cruise/Farm/Lunch/Dinner (Optional Combinations)]

The steamship Ernstlaus trip is one of Queenstown's most classic tourism projects, none of them. The event was arranged very easily and very pleasant. The buffet barbecue tasted good. The lake and mountains were panoramic and worth recommending!

Reviews: Queenstown: Skippers Canyon Goldrush Highlights Tour
Guest User2026-01-09
★★★★★Koreans looking for a tour in Queenstown... This is the place. A Korean audio guide is provided throughout the tour. Honestly, even if you speak English to some extent, you'd probably miss 70% of the professional commentary. But this tour offers a detailed and expert explanation of Queenstown's gold rush history and Skippers Canyon, perfectly recorded by a professional audio guide, not a low-quality AI translation. Listening to the in-depth Queenstown gold rush history while taking in the scenery through the window and comparing past and present photos from the expert guide was truly like time travel in Queenstown. Skippers Canyon is inaccessible by rental car, so this professional tour was a must-do. If you're visiting Queenstown, I highly recommend Skippers Canyon, especially if you enjoy exploring cultural heritage sites while listening to commentary! Of course, you can also change to the music channel (one headset provided per person) and listen to your own music as you go. You can enjoy the Shotover River and the Remarkable Mountains while riding, and the scenery outside the window is truly amazing. And the tour guide is super friendly and great!!! Another great thing is that this tour started last summer, so word of mouth hasn't spread yet, so you can tour as if you're chartering a car with just your group. It feels like a private tour!! Even though it was just the two of us, the guide worked really hard to make the tour enjoyable. And another adorable thing☆☆☆☆☆ is the dog, Aster!!!! The tour guide's pet dog is so gentle, and you can even get out of the car and take pictures with him. I highly recommend it🥹😍😍 And another great part of the tour: at the end, we had a beer at a pub that's been around since the 1800s, just like gold rush miners!! The guide asked about drinks during the tour, and there were various choices. I tasted four beers, and they were seriously delicious. My eyes widened after the first one. I highly recommend choosing beer. This is a must-do tour in Quinta.
Reviews: Milford Sound Day Tour from Queenstown
Guest User2024-07-28
We really enjoyed the bus trip there with our driver Shailendra who was very informative, insightful and fun. The cruise had some beautiful scenery despite the weather not being as good. The bus ride home was very long and quite a long day on the whole was the only downside for us but enjoyable experience on the whole.
Reviews: Queenstown Southern Alps Glacier Helicopter Tour - Classic 50min Route

Luckily, Queenstown was blessed with a rare sunny day (starting tomorrow, it'll rain for at least ten days straight), so at 11 PM last night, we suddenly decided to scrap our original plans for the Fiordland Islands and start booking helicopter tickets to the snowy mountains. Fortunately, we found a super reliable agent, and after much trouble, we finally secured a spot on this morning's newly added helicopter flight. However, this morning, as we arrived at the agreed pick-up point and waited for the minibus to pick us up, we received a call saying the flight had been canceled due to insufficient passengers. Fortunately, after negotiating with the airline, the flight was rescheduled for this afternoon. I spent the entire morning and afternoon feeling anxious. The itinerary wasn't officially confirmed until an hour before departure, and the agent was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, helping to communicate with the airline. Finally, we were lucky enough to board the last helicopter of the day—all that perseverance and patience paid off!

The travel agency arranged a free taxi to pick us up from the hotel and take us to the designated bus stop to wait for the tour bus. The process was quite relaxed and enjoyable. The guide was humorous and took us to several unique spots for photo opportunities. We were very grateful to them! Milford Sound has many waterfalls of varying sizes, which are spectacular and breathtaking. It's a view I've never seen before; the ocean is truly vast!
