Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Thank you Simon for bailing us out of a tough situation. Our scheduled guide informed us on the evening before we were to go fishing with him that he couldn't make it. Simon stepped up on very short notice and took my son and I to some great streams and good fishing. Thank you!

    Great morning on the lake. Fishing was slow at times, but that's fishing! We caught a fair few in the end, and we don't have salmon where we live so that was a highlight.
    Good laughs, beautiful scenery - hard to complain.
    Will book again.

    Fantastic day with Simon from Queenstown fishing. This guy knows his stuff and is so passionate about the area and has exceptional fishing gear and skills. We initially were confused as there is another charter called Queenstown Fishing charters but after asking the locals Simon was the most highly recommended- so rapted we did as we had a great day out - other half totally absorbing all the softbait fly fishing tips as never lake fished for trout in this way before. Keep up the great work Simon you are an asset to the area - just look for the cool Queenstown Fishing logo on his boat -then you know you’ve got the right man . Look forward to another adventure sometime in the near future- thanks heaps. Will certainly recommend you to others.

    We are just back from a great afternoon fishing with Mike! We were lucky enough to have the boat all for the two of us and Mike was very patient especially with my 10 year old daughter, who was on her first ever fishing adventure. Thanks to Mike’s expertise we caught a salmon and a trout, and was lots of fun! A must do experience if you want to enjoy Queenstown and surroundings in a different way!

    We had a lovely day with Sheree and “Mr Wine-O”, her dog, touring the vineyards, enjoying the beautiful wines, food, vineyards and spectacular views that are Waiheke.
    Sheree was brilliant, very patient, helpful, fun and informative. Highly recommend to everyone!
    Look forward to doing it again next month - different wineries. :)

    It was a very helpful lesson for newbies in fly fishing. I was totally satisfied. My wife has been here with me and enjoyed this as well, so now we have to buy a new fly rod for her :))
