Queenstown occupies a spectacular position on Lake Wakatipu beneath the Remarkables. The town is famous for adventure, but its appeal now extends equally to food, wine, private lodges and beautifully executed outdoor experiences.
Choose your level of adventure
Jet boating, hiking, skiing, cycling and aerial experiences can fill every day, yet Queenstown does not require a high-adrenaline itinerary. Private lake cruises and scenic touring offer a completely different pace.
Wine and the wider region
Central Otago’s vineyards, Arrowtown and Glenorchy all sit within reach. Several nights allow travellers to balance activity with long lunches and landscape.
