Reviews: Queenstown: Lord of the Rings Locations Half-Day Tour
Guest User2026-01-10
And I loved everything! Ian is a fantastic guide! He has so much knowledge about Lord of the Rings, the filming locations, and so much more… You ask a question and he answers immediately :) The tour and the group were great! I would definitely recommend it…★

Reviews: Milford Sound Coach & Cruise from Queenstown: Panoramic Views
Guest User2024-07-10
We enjoyed a coach ride through beautiful countryside on our way to Milford Sound. Our guide was knowledgeable and pointed out things of interest along our route stopping for overlooks and points of interest. When we got to Milford Sound we took a two hour boat cruise through the sound and had a nice hot buffet lunch. The waterfall on the cruise was a highlight! Prepare that you will be in the coach the majority of the trip but with the beautiful views it will feel like it goes quickly!★

Reviews: Queenstown: Walter Peak Gourmet BBQ & Lake Whakatipu Cruise
Guest User2026-01-13
Had a great day out on the TSS Earnslaw. Arrived at 10.30am for 11am boarding and arrived back about 3pm. Onboard had plenty of areas to sit and was able to move around. Was able to see the steam room for the boat which was amazing! We arrived at the farm/station and debarked the boat. Absolutely beautiful spot, with flowers and buildings along the lake. Signage/instructions was poor: no clear area to head to or where to go so everyone just followed each other, but wasn’t a big deal! The food was a BBQ buffet, beautifully cooked with decent variety. We then were given a short period to explore the farm with beautiful views of the lake. The farm show was a highlight of the trip and was amazing to watch. Would recommend the day for anyone in Queenstown!
