Best garden!

We thought we were just going to look at a garden. BUT NO...this was a total mind blowing experience. We were greeted Christine and showed thru their totally unique lodge her husband has worked his artistic woodsmanship talent totally thru out the home. From the fish tank used as the water tank in the toilet to all the crafted wood. The breath-taking view from the kitchen window of the lake.We were shown the 2 Air B&B suites.Then outside to the garden. There was so much to see,it was hard to know which way to look. The gardens just amazing with sculptures doing yoga poses and placed throughout the garden giving the eye something to focus on. The ducks and birds and peacocks calling gave the atmosphere. There was a tree top curved staircase to climb which was amazing to view the property and views over lake Wakitipu. Finally we had the experience of feeding the birds,ducks and peacocks. The peacocks came so close to us and it felt almost intimate watching them put on a show with their feathers all out and their tails wiggling. You could feel the breeze as they turned around. This review I'm doing isn't doing Paradise Dream Garden any justice. It's an unforgettable experience and I totally recommend it to everyone.

Definitely made my trip to NZ worth while. I’ve never experienced a garden like it, thousands of flowers & amazing wildlife amongst man made creations. And the house tour was definitely worth it. Great customer service. Tried to add more photos we took of flowers but could only add 2 pics

It’s a very beautiful garden, must see in Queenstown.

Such a stunning place. The owner greeted us and gave us a tour and we were wowed by the creativity. Definitely recommend you visit for an amazing experience!

I went with my partner and we loved it. Absolutely beautiful. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Queenstown who likes gardens. Very Insta-worthy.

This is truly a little paradise! The views are breathtaking... everywhere you look there are flowers, lush gardens and sculptures (made by the owner), with the mountains as a backdrop. It is peaceful and relaxing... and an inspirational place especially for artists. I also got a tour of the house, which is just amazing - with beautiful furniture and decorations made by the owner out of recycled wood. I am so glad I decided to visit!

Filled with artistic flair this unique lakeside Garden is so unexpected in this alpine environment. Truly, you will see surprising works of art created from organic materials and ingenious adaptions for normal household utilities like the bath.

We had alot of fun during the tour! The commentary was very insightful, scenery is stunning and the short teabreak at Glenorchy was very delicious. Thumbs up to Pure Glenorchy!

Amazing trip i have the best experience amazing views and great customer service the drive knew a lot about the best places to take pictures definitely recommend it 100%

Dave, you are amazing!!! A very knowledgeable, joker and a very kind tour guide. We request to drop by animal experience as we are the only family on the tour and wish granted!!! He makes sure that we enjoy and safe on our travel. Journey was so beautiful and i learn a lot on the places we went and about Glenorchy. Highly recommended!!!

Riding through the valley and up to Moke Lake was a magical experience! There were spectacular views in every direction! Our guide Kim was lovely and knowledgeable, and our horses Munster and Tigger were great companions for novice riders like me and my husband. We highly recommend this trek!

A beautiful horse trekking experience! Easy ride through rivers and farmland. Beautiful scenery and adorable horses. Very friendly and nice staff.

Amazing experience. Super friendly and chilled horses and guide. Really enjoyed every bit of it. Thank you. ❤️

Great guide, awesome horses and unbelievable view. Totally enjoyed my experience and would highly recommend.

Ben and Kat are fantastic. They seem passionate about their jobs and love Queenstown. All the gear was excellent. Safety briefing excellent and we were also provided with a two way radio. We paddled around Lake Moke. Awesome scenery with a little bit of wildlife around to keep it interesting. We had a fantastic time and we are very happy to highly recommend hiring Paddles and kayaking around lake Moke.

Felt very privileged to have the opportunity to experience this. Fantastic weather with spectacular scenery. True South pilot Jason was informative friendly and accommodating.beautiful spot to visit in NZ

I rode with JD the horse and our tour guides marta n ezra were fantastic...never ride a horse before let alone a big horse like JD..it was an interesting experience and another ticked activities of me bucket list..? Hope to see JD really soon..

We all enjoyed the Heli ride thoroughly, it was the perfect day, clear skies and the pilot was fantastic, can't stop talking about it to everyone

My husband and I booked this at 9am in the morning, and I guess that it made the journey much better The sun wasn’t too strong, but we could still soak it up The lake was so calm and still that we could enjoy the view of mountains reflected on it The beautiful lady, Layna, who helped us to trek was very helpful and super nice even though my husband is not fluent in English The horses that took us were very gentle as well Everything was just awesome and beautiful, couldn’t be better :) I dare say it was the best moment in my life Thanks

First, I want to thank the pilots, especially henry for his kindness to our boy and his great handling of the plane. #butterlanding The trip on the modern and luxurious cruise ship was also unforgettable and the views beautiful.

This was the perfect trip to enjoy being on horseback whilst enjoying the incredible scenery of Lake Moke which is an absolute hidden gem. Our two guides were wonderful throughout Highly recommended

what a stunning backdrop for such a great experience. Staff were so friendly and informative. Had a great ride and would happily recommend this trek

Very much worth your money

Was so much fun, beautiful views, staff were friendly and awesome, horses were well trained and looked after. Highly recommend!

This is a opportunity to ride through a stunning part of the country, really enjoyed the ride and I am not a horse rider normally. The operators and guides were excellent.

Everything's great! 1.5hrs Moke Lake Trek is suitable for beginners horse riding. Will back to try for longer riding next time!

Beautiful horses and fantastic staff! Very welcoming and friendly.

Great day for horse Trek. All staff friendly, patient and helpful. Definitely will come back for another ride~

I took my partner along and it was great for him, it was a lovely hack with great scenery. If I were to go alone I would love to go on the 2 hour ride for experienced riders. The horses were well behaved and our guide was friendly. Captain was great to ride and Reno looked after my partner well. Thankyou :-)

Absolutely loved this. No need to worry if you haven't ridden before as the horses are great and the staff explain everything. Rachel our tour guide was fab. It was an awesome experience. The scenery is breath taking, just beautiful

Surprised my boyfriend with this horse trek. It was a really enjoyable experience and I would highly recommend it. I have never been on a horse before and they were really good at explaining everything and making sure I was comfortable and confident. Thank you

Our first time to ride a horse. I was a little anxious at first but when ted(the horse) started to walk i felt safe.. he was a professional and i love him. He gave me the most comfortable and relaxed ride of my life. Our guides marta and millie were amazing. They were the best. Moke lake was stunning. Overall experience was amazing.

Great guide.. Laura, great horse...Jo joe. Thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you to everyone. Rosemary Lindop UK

Had an amazing time doing the 2 hour trek. Our guide Missy was awesome. She was very helpful & informative about the horses and area. We had a really fun time and it made our sore backsides and blisters worth it 100%. Thanks to our horses Munster & JD too!
