    Întreaga călătorie a fost o experiență extraordinară, care merită să fie trăită. În drum spre fermă, căpitanul Earnslaw vă oferă un bun comentariu faptic despre zonă și despre funcționarea vaporului. Walter Peak a fost o destinație pitorească. Prânzul gourmet bbq a fost grozav. Chiar mi-a plăcut spectacolul de la fermă, deosebit de informativ pentru turiști. Magazinul de cadouri a fost cu siguranță în valoare de o privire. Ceva pentru toată lumea.

    Întregul pachet. Prânzul a fost grozav, cu o mulțime de varietate pentru toți. Personalul a fost foarte prietenos și primitor. Spectacolul de la fermă a fost drăguț, deoarece am fost o fată de la fermă acum 50 de ani ciudați.

    A fost o experiență minunată navigând pe marea doamnă bătrână a lacului TSS Earnslaw. Priveliștile au fost magnifice din Queenstown, lanțurile muntoase și Walter Peak. Masa noastră a fost fabuloasă, Walter Peak Station homestead este frumos și personalul au fost toate minunat. M-am bucurat pe deplin de întreaga experiență.
  • Cruise Lake Wakatipu aboard a vintage steamship or sleek catamaran, then tailor your journey with a farm tour, lakeside BBQ, or horseback ride.

    Getting started

    Head to the Steamer Wharf in Queenstown to board your vessel—either the historic TSS Earnslaw or the modern Spirit of Queenstown. Arrive at least 20 minutes early. Your ticket will be scanned before boarding; no ID checks required. Security is minimal but bags may be checked.

    What to expect

    • Lake Wakatipu: New Zealand’s third-largest lake, shaped like a lightning bolt, framed by the Remarkables mountain range. Known for its mysterious ‘tidal rise’ every 25 minutes.
    • Cruise across the lake: Sail past forested hills, alpine peaks, and quiet bays. The TSS Earnslaw features a working steam engine and piano lounge. The Spirit of Queenstown offers an open-air top deck with panoramic views.

    Extras

    • Walter Peak Farm: Step ashore for a hands-on tour of a working high country farm. Feed sheep, meet Highland cattle, and see sheepdogs in action.
    • BBQ at the Homestead: Enjoy a gourmet BBQ lunch or dinner at a lakefront restaurant with local meats, fresh salads, and decadent desserts.
    • Horse trek: Join a guided ride through scenic paddocks and rolling hills, suitable for all levels. Helmets and instruction provided.

    After your visit, cruise back across the lake with fresh views of Queenstown and the surrounding peaks.

  • What to bring

    • Bring your covered shoes/boots (nonslip), long trousers, warm clothing/jacket, sunscreen, sunglasses, and camera.
    • Pack your meds – better to be prepared, just in case they’re not available onsite.
    • Bring a cash-free payment method for meals, souvenirs, and extra delights not covered by the ticket.

    What’s not allowed

    • Safety is a priority so the horse trekking experience is restricted for guests under the age of 7 years, under the height of 1.2m (3.94ft) and over the weight of 100kg (220.46lb).

    Accessibility

    • The Spirit of Queenstown is designed with accessibility in mind, making it easier to board with prams or mobility aids. The TSS Earnslaw, with its heritage design, may present some challenges for those with limited mobility or prams.
    • The Farm Tour involves walking on gravel paths, so it may be challenging for wheelchair users. Those with impaired mobility should consider their comfort level before participating.
    • The restaurant for the BBQ dining is easily accessible, except for the short gravel path from the wharf, which may require assistance for some wheelchair users.
    • The horse trekking tour is suitable for riders of all skill levels, including first-time riders.

    Additional information

    • The cruise is subject to favorable weather conditions. In the event of cancellation due to poor weather, you will have the option of rescheduling or receiving a full refund.
    • The TSS Earnslaw is scheduled to undergo annual maintenance from May 19 to September 9, 2025.
    • Your voucher will be emailed to you instantly.

    • Display the voucher on your mobile phone with a valid photo ID at the boarding point.

    • Please arrive at the boarding point 15 mins before the scheduled time of your cruise to avoid any delays.

    Boarding point

    • Board your cruise at Steamer Wharf.

    • Address: 88 Beach Street, Queenstown 9300, New Zealand.
