Fantastic!

This was our favourite day in Queenstown: we ended up cycling 75km, heading out to Gibbston River in a big loop. We were upgraded to better quality bikes, and they were absolutely fantastic. It was our first time using ebikes, and they were amazing, really helped on some of the hills. Very much recommended.

Beautiful walk and Amazing guide!

The walk was beautiful and Sarah,the guide, was super Nice. She gave me multiple options from an easy but beautiful walk to a bit more challenging one with great views.I chose the bit steeper walk and it was so worth it! She knows a lot about the history as well and has some cool facts to tell you along the way. The fact that she came to pick me up at my hostel was great as well!

Great day out exploring Arrowtown and beyond

We had a fantastic day as a family of four on these e-bikes. Such a beautiful route. Started in Frankton, off to Arrowtown via Lake Hayes & came back over the 5-bridges. Bikes were great, route was fantastic and good service at the bike hire.

E-bike Easy

We hired bikes, and had them delivered to our Hotel in Queenstown. They arrived on time, with Water bottle, maps, and a Lock. Great instruction was given on the easy operation of the bikes. We had a magic day exploring Queenstown and beyond the Shotover River bridge. This was a great way to see the parks & gardens with the magnificent Autumn colours.

Was so awesome to have an e bike so I could get the most out of my day. Queenstown and area has lots of great bike trails, but the hills would really get me, so having the extra kick of the E bike helped me get up them.

I personally don’t paint but needed to kill some time before meeting with a mate. I’m so glad I booked this as it was so relaxing and peaceful. Their Rosé wine tasted great and would have loved to try more if I didn’t have to drive lol. The staff were very friendly and they kindly let me stay past the booking duration as it was a quiet during my visit. Def recommend if you would like a chill activity :)

Relaxing stressful fun

When we arrived (and found where we should go : in the Cellar) we were warmly greeted. Our painting gear was set up in a ‘windowed’ area of the tasting room all ready for us. The most stressful part was trying to figure out what to paint, but after a wander in the beautiful gardens, we ‘found’ a subject. Served with a glass of our chosen wine (and lovely it was) we started our masterpieces. The time went quickly and we were encouraged with comments from the staff...not sure if the wine really got the artistic juices flowing but at least our scenes were recognisable. A great way to spend some ‘peaceful’ time out of the hustle and bustle of Queenstown...and an added bonus of being in the set of Under the Vines!

This was a really cool experience! Our bus driver Lore was super nice. There were so many different stops available it was hard to choose, and many places had good discounts for the tour (ie $15 wine tasting) Would be so easy to stay for the day - next time I'd go for the day trip version to experience more of the interesting stops. It was also a fun way to meet other travellers on the bus - I had some wines with a really lovely couple at Nockies Vineyard who were super sweet and great company! Great memories! Definitely recommend this tour :)

Fantastic day awesome driver highly recommended

We had a great day. Wineries were wonderful especially Waitere and nockies!! All we visited were really good. Need more information i.e. can be picked up at Frankton but only on the first bus. Had to Uber from Frankton to Queenstown but got dropped off at the Frankton Arms Tavern on the way back so all good. You only really get five or six stops so you need to plan ahead– that is if you do one every stop / if the wineries busy you can’t do a tasting within the 40 minute stopover. Had a wonderful day and would do again to visit different wineries. George the bus driver was awesome.

Fantastic day exploring different wineries. Beautiful scenery and easy timetable to follow. Just decide which wineries you want to visit and hop off the bus. Look at time for pick up and hop back on. We missed one of our pick up but no problem, we just went back into the winery and then hopped on the next scheduled pick up bus.

There were only 3 passengers on my tour, but thanks to Cowboy we had a fun filled, adventurous and awesome day. We were able to enjoy a few extra stops, and still stay ahead of the "opposition", lol. He is simply superb at his job, yes, even with the terrible puns, haha. Very informative in every aspect, and a great storyteller. The boat cruise wasn't quite as exciting as I'd hoped, but it was still beautiful, and the bus ride more than made up for it! Would definitely recommend this tour to friends, so much breathtaking scenery in one day, and too many photo opportunities.

The Cowboy and his Steel Horse
Posted byfrom

The Cowboy and his Steel Horse

Our driver calls himself the Cowboy and the bus, his steel horse. He entertained us through much of our long bus ride to and fro with interesting facts, and also jokes, puns and quizzes that really kept the atmosphere lighthearted (he gave us good time to rest as well). With only 15 people on the tour and every one keeping to the time schedule as well as really good weather, Cowboy was able to stop a couple of times at several scenic places for us to take excellent photos! The premium bus offers good space, wifi on the bus (while there's still reception of course) and I was able to charge my phone till 99% by the end of the trip - so bring your wire and sit near the charging ports!). For best views, sit on the right. Oh and And Milford Sound is just so stunning! My friend and I spent almost the whole 1.5hrs out on the various decks to try and capture the best views. The toilet on the cruise was also clean. We didn't take the lunch (don't think it's halal), but sure looks and smells good! There's complimentary tea and coffee on board the cruise and also hot water available to cook cup instant noodles if you're slightly on a budget like me.

Comfortable coach/boat &  excellent driver/guides

A great experience comfortable clean coach with very good driver guide. So enjoyed the history shared as we made the journey down and great drop off points. The cruise was amazing shame it went so fast the packed lunch was more than plentiful and I washed it down with a glass of wine on board. Instead of getting the coach back my driver kindly introduced me to one of the pilots and as it was a perfect day I flew back

My mum and l had a great time on the Milford sound and Coach. We had excellent views of hundreds of waterfalls on our way to Milford as it was a rainy day it was still worth it. Our driver was excellent and had a lot of knowledge about places and names through out the journey. We had an amazing time on the cruise it was just a majestic place. The cruise staff were great and lunch being provided on the cruise was also a treat. I would highly recommend the coach and cruise you also get to to stop at key places along the journey to take in the scenery and take lots of pictures. It was a great experience.

Nice trip. Both the coach and cruise were new and clean. Cowboy was humorous, polite and helpful. Told us a lot of jokes during this long trip. It rained all the way but it cleared up when we arrived. Real lucky. Spent most of the time on the deck enjoying the views and were thrilled to see some seals.

What a day!! From the moment we got on the bus and were treated by Ben’s brilliant stories of the local area. From the moment you reach Te Anau and move closer to Milford, the journey itself is incredibly impressive and inspiring through wonderful untouched nature. This is simply a trip that has to be taken.

Une très belle excursion ! On ne voit pas passer les 5h de route à l’aller avec les nombreux arrêts pour observer toutes les beautés de la route jusqu’à Milford Sound. Un buffet très bon (un peu d’attente pour y arriver) sur le bateau. Un spectacle à couper le souffle lors de la croisière. Seul point négatif, le chauffage dans le bus n’est pas au top. Et pas de traduction en français des commentaires (très intéressants).

We went on you trip on a lovely sunny day. Yes it is a long day but there were plenty of stops on way there and a quick journey back. Have been before but this trip was more enjoyable. So sad that the weather has prevented others from seeing this beautiful place for a while. Hope the road can be repaired quickly.

Our bus driver was absolutely hilarious! There was never a dull moment when he was around as we were all constantly laughing our heads off! I think he missed his calling as a botanist or biologist because the amount of information I know about moss and lambs now is hilarious. The cruise was beautiful and the crew were lovely. The buffet was yummy and we loved when we got super close to the waterfalls.
