Enjoy the scenery of Queenstown while riding the cable car. The cable car ride gives you a panoramic view of the entire Queenstown landscape. Up to the observation deck above the scenery is even more stunning: including the town, the entire lake plus the nearby peaks are very stunning.

Definitely worth it! Very informative farm tour and we get to feed them too. Wish there was more time to walk around and take photos. It did felt a bit rush, but overall it was a fun experience

Skydiving was a great experience, but the reception from this company was terrible. You weren't allowed to bring your own GoPro, and if you wanted to film, you had to pay NZD 209 for them to take the video. We called a day before to ask if we could drive to the event, but customer service said no. We had no choice but to park in the city center (for a fee) and meet at the office. While we were waiting, we heard customer service tell another customer that we could drive. We asked why they had said no the previous call, but they didn't respond. The Asian female driver, a minibus driver, took us to the event location. When we got out of the car, she had a sour face and spoke a few quick, quiet instructions (I'm Asian and had studied in the UK before, so I couldn't hear clearly). We were completely disappointed with this company's customer service, their money-grabbing, and their misleading experience.

Presenting information on the booking to the counter was easily verified for redemption. The shotover jet ride at Arthur's point is one of best among others at Queenstown. The jet boat gets close to the rocks of the canyon for a thrilling experience.

Stepping into the Angsen Wooden Barrel Hot Spring area is like entering a tranquil paradise for health preservation. The wooden barrels are scattered in an orderly manner, exuding a faint wood fragrance. Slowly stepping into the wooden barrel, the warm spring water instantly wraps your whole body, as if being embraced by gentle arms. The hot spring water slides over the skin, and the day's fatigue gradually dissipates. The surroundings are filled with tranquility, with only the occasional sound of gurgling water, which calms the soul. Close your eyes and enjoy this unique warmth and comfort, as if all your worries are taken away by the steaming water vapor, and your body and mind are relaxed and relieved like never before.

Spent about 2-3 hours here. Not so crowded. Kiwi can only see during the kiwi encounter session. Kiwi house 2 don’t have any? Super near the gondola area and could be packed together with the gondola. Great place if you loved birds. Have an informative bird encounter show.

I heard that there are not many places with shark speedboats, so I must come and experience it. I didn't expect that the shark is quite small inside. It is not recommended for tall people, it may be too oppressive, but it doesn't matter to us hobbits. It's very fun. The shark goes up and down and enters the lake. The driver will stop twice to open the cabin for air and ask about the situation. He is very gentle and considerate. He will give you a seven-minute unedited video and let you watch it before deciding whether to buy it. 👍

Returning to Queenstown from Milford Strait, passing the heliport, you can take a helicopter to the southern glacier. "Global warming is causing the southern glaciers of New Zealand to melt, and perhaps we won't be able to see them again in many years!" The guide's introduction was very tempting. However, the price is really not cheap, equivalent to RMB 3,000 per person. From the Chinese on the billboard, it can be seen that this project is quite popular among Chinese people.

Queenstown Gardens is worth a visit! It is located on a small peninsula by Lake Wakatipu in the southeast of Queenstown🌊 Although it is a garden, it is actually a large public green space, and no entrance fee is charged🎫 As soon as you enter the garden, the towering ancient trees instantly bring tranquility, which is completely different from the bustle of the city. Strolling along the trail, there are surprises in all seasons: flowers bloom in spring, trees are shady in summer, forests are colorful in autumn, and winter is quiet and peaceful🍃 In addition to natural scenery, there are cultural imprints here, and you can see the bronze statue of William Gilbert Reece, the founder of the town🗿 If you want to relax, sunbathe on the lawn and have a picnic, which is very comfortable; if you want to move around, you can play frisbee golf, tennis, lawn bowls and other projects, and children can also play in the playground🎾 When you are tired of playing, go to the lake to watch ducks swimming, or admire the mountains and lakes in the distance, which is a visual feast.
