Queenstown Pentru familii

The Walter Peak Farm Tour is a well-rounded and memorable experience that combines scenic travel, authentic farm life, and good food in one package. The journey itself is already a highlight, as you cross Lake Wakatipu on the historic TSS Earnslaw, offering stunning alpine views that set the tone for the day. Once at Walter Peak, the setting feels peaceful and genuinely rural, giving you a break from the busier side of Queenstown. The farm show is engaging and informative, especially the sheep shearing and dog herding demonstrations. Even if you’re not particularly interested in farming, the skill and precision involved make it enjoyable to watch. The guides are friendly and knowledgeable, often adding humor and personal insights that keep the experience lively. The BBQ lunch at the Homestead is another standout. There’s a wide selection of high-quality food, from meats to salads and desserts, catering to different tastes. The atmosphere is relaxed, and dining with a lake and mountain backdrop adds to the overall charm. While it may feel slightly touristy at times, the experience is well-organized and worth it, especially for first-time visitors to New Zealand. It offers a nice balance of nature, culture, and entertainment, making it a solid half-day activity.

It was a completely unique experiencr that deeply reflected the heart of this area of New Zealand. The nostalgic steam boat ride across the lake on the TSS Earnlaw, as the sun set was spectacular. Then arriving at Walter Peak like we'd travelled back in time was magical. The gift shop & farm show were both worth the trip. But the buffet dinner is unbelievable. So much choice - everything fresh & delicious.

The Earnslaw was fabulous! I would recommend sitting upstairs at this time of year as downstairs is a bit colder. The ambiance upstarts with the guitar player was beautiful. I would also recommend their mulled wine, amazing! It unfortunately was raining when we did the farm tour, but we're still able to walk around as umbrellas were provided. The afternoon tea was another highlight. They do this very well serving club club sandwiches and sweet treats and scones with ham and cream, just like a high tea, but it is not brought to your table you go and get what you want. Overall, I would highly recommend this trip, we were three generations travelling together and we ALL loved it.

We enjoyed being able to see the engine from up close. There were a variety of places to sit and enjoy the cruise. We enjoyed listening to the piano player. We enjoyed drinking the mulled wine as it was a chilly winter's day. The afternoon tea at Walters Peak was very nice too.

O varietate incredibilă de mâncare și opțiuni. Prezentare frumoasă și personal amabil. Comentariile căpitanului sunt foarte interesante. O barcă aglomerată, dar cu mult spațiu pentru a sta jos sau a admira peisajul.

A fost o zi absolut perfectă, personalul a fost foarte primitor. Pianistul a creat o atmosferă minunată. Peisajul și prânzul de la Walter Peak, urmate de spectacolul de la fermă, au fost pur și simplu perfecte. Walter Peak este un loc frumos, iar bufetul a oferit o mare varietate de preparate. Chelnerița noastră era din Japonia și a fost minunată.

Priveliști superbe, personal amabil și ne-a plăcut foarte mult muzica de la bordul navei Earnslaw. Prânzul la grătar și spectacolul de la ferma Walter Peak au fost, de asemenea, fantastice. O experiență cu adevărat memorabilă — o recomand cu căldură!

Pentru noi, aceasta a fost o nouă vizită, după luna de miere de acum 15 ani. De la echipajul bărcii până la ghizii turului, toți au fost prietenoși și bine pregătiți. Iar turul prin peșteri a fost o experiență distractivă. Ne-a plăcut la fel de mult și a doua oară! De-a lungul pasarelelor solide există scări, dar traseul este ușor de parcurs pentru majoritatea vizitatorilor... sunt doar două locuri înguste unde trebuie să te apleci destul de mult, dar nimic prea dificil.
