    Sharing details I couldn’t find in advance…The 21-mile route that starts in Arrowtown follows the Arrow River Bridges trail, then turns onto the Twin Rivers Trail, and finally the Frankton track by waterfront near the airport, on down to downtown. There were 2-3 short segments on country lanes used by cars, but I never encountered a car. No restrooms at check-in shop in CBD, and in Arrowtown you have to go away from the trail entrance a bit to find the public toilets. The quality of the trail is pretty much as advertised, almost all groomed gravel. There are many hairpin turns to watch out for. I went on a sunny day, but wish I had brought sunglasses that transmitted more light, as you’re often in the shade while you’re navigating turns and such. My e-bike was a light duty mountain bike with front suspension only and a slightly cushy seat. The power was good - 3 levels - I used level 1 almost all the way, and level 2 only for a few of the steep hills. I am not a super-serious biker and almost always ride on roads - but I was able to do this trail in 1.5 hours (plus one brief water break stop). This trail requires enough attention that you aren’t seeing the scenery very much - so I could see dedicating more time to the ride if you want to stop more often and take in the scenery. The whole thing is a great value for the money. It’s a great ride - enjoy!

    Rented ebikes and discussed the options for rides from the bike rental place. We rode the Kelvin Heights Peninsula loop. The tip of the peninsula provides a nice vista of Queenstown and a place for lunch.

    I recently did the Skippers Canyon photography tour with Martin and it was sensational. Not only is Martin an experienced photographer, he also knows a lot of history about Queenstown and Skippers Canyon.

    Martin picked me up from my accommodation just outside of Queenstown in a new, very clean and comfortable car. We then made our way up Coronet Peak, stopping at a few locations as we went up in height. We then went down the Skippers Canyon track. The scenery is spectacular, but the drive is precarious—at all times I felt very safe with Martin driving. We stopped at lots of locations for all different types of photos. Near the bottom of the canyon we stopped for coffee and a muffin (both yum) before we continued along and the Shotover River came into view.

    All up, we were away for about 5 hours and loved every minute.

    I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to get spectacular photos while
    In Queenstown. Martin is a personable and exemplary host 10/10!

    Excellent photography tour with Martin. Learnt a lot about composition and the art of photography. Took some great photos. Benefited immensely from Martin's local knowledge. Will love to take another tour with Martin and see more of the region.

    I brought a school group of 21 international school students to Queenstown and we had a private day tour around the surrounding area. We went to Arrowtown, goldpanning, up to the Cardrona look our for some snow fun and then down to the Kawarau Bridge to watch the bungy. It was very well tailored and age appropriate and Kathy was really helpful at suggesting activities and making sure we got to do the things we wanted. The goldpanning and lunch were excellently organised and Kathy really knew her local history as we were touring round. The students (and staff) had a great time and I would highly recommend this tour company for school tours

    I had the most incredible day snowshoeing with Jenni. She was friendly, genuine, helpful and informative. Thoroughly enjoyed the walk and would definitely recommend it to anyone
