Queenstown Holiday Deals

Queenstown is widely regarded as the adventure sports capital of the world, so be sure to pack your sense of fun (and perhaps a spare pair of pants). Foodies, you’re in for a treat with world-class dining options aplenty, so throw in your stretchiest pants and comfortable shoes for when you need to walk off the impending food coma. The rest will depend on the time of year you plan to travel but as a rough guide, aim for layers, sturdy shoes and don’t forget your camera.

Lake Wakatipu is a Queenstown must, whether you’re into fishing, jet boating or you’re just looking for a nice spot for a picnic, it doesn’t disappoint. For panoramic views of the lake, take a scenic gondola (cable car) ride to the top of Bob's Peak and soak in the serenity. Once you’ve returned from your sightseeing adventures, be sure to carve out some time to enjoy a leisurely stroll through the charming town centre and explore the many shops and restaurants. If you’re keen to hit the slopes, the aptly named mountains – The Remarkables – offer some of the most beautiful fields in New Zealand, and if you’re up for a thrill, head to Nevis Valley for biking, bungy jumping, horse riding or four-wheel driving.

The excellent news is that Queenstown is a year-round destination, so there’s always something to keep you entertained. The best time, however, depends on your interests – winter is ideal for skiing and snowboarding, while summer offers perfect weather for outdoor adventures like hiking and kayaking. Spring and autumn are great for outdoor activities, with fewer crowds and relatively mild temperatures.

Get the blood pumping with a thrilling jet boat ride, go bungy jumping, sip your way through Queenstown’s wine region, take a scenic flight, hit the golf course, explore one of the many hiking trails, ride a cable car to the top of Bob’s Peak, cruise Lake Wakatipu, sink in to utter relaxation at Onsen Hot Pools and, if weather permits, hit the slopes. Queenstown really is the perfect launchpad for adventures of all kinds.
