We had a great time exploring the steamship, especially the decks and the engine room. The captain helpfully pointed out various points of interest, and there were refreshments available for the guests. I'd recommend this for anyone looking for a leisurely way to see lake Wakatipu when visiting Queenstown.
This is a wonderful old ship kept in great condition. we very much enjoyed our journey around the lake. To start with there were a lot of people on board however the boat is big enough to accommodate everyone. A lot of people got off to visit some farm which left hardly anyone onboard so it was a very nice and quiet trip back.
A must do in Queenstown.
Beautiful old steamer , awesome views of the mountains! Food was outrageously amazing. Beautiful building and grounds . Friendly staff and great service. A bit too quick though. Herded around a bit with not much time to explore and work of your amazing meal. $250 for us both but a great treat to give yourself! A bit more time to cruise around and have a walk would have been nice but still, great day . Happy we did it
Did the 25 minutes ride which is fine to experience a jet boat but doesn’t go into any river gorge if that’s what you want. Absolutely loved it and would do it again in a heartbeat! Waterproof covers provided and all easily arranged and organised. Full on fun!
Thanks Jeff
Glad you had a good time on our jet boat experience, we hope you do come back and visit :)
We where recommend this at $125 each for the cruise, farm show and gourmet bbq lunch . Well the trip was excellent with great views everywhere you looked extremely relaxing, show sheep shearing and dog rounding up the sheep was ok . The best part of the day was the scrumptious delicious well put together bbq lunch heaps of everything lots of different meats ,salads and yummy desserts. So it was worth it’s money and we would recommend it to .
