너무너무너무 만족이에요!

사실 제값 주고는 보긴 좀 그렇고 북미에서 싼 시간대에 예약하는게 좋음 와카티푸 호수 밑에 이렇게 많은 물고기가 있다니! 영상도 생각보다 퀄리티있고 괜찮았음 퀸즈타운에서 할거 없을때 시간떼우기 좋음

Cool

Worth it. Could not believe the size of the fish. The View alone from the tank was incredible.

From Time Tripper Queenstown

Hi Will, thanks for your review! We’re glad you thought it was worth it — the fish are impressive, and the underwater viewing is directly into Lake Wakatipu, with the fish swimming freely in their natural environment. The views really are something special. Hope to see you again soon!

Fun and interesting!

This was really interesting! A film about New Zealand from back in the dinosaur age. It was supposed to be like time travelling and with the vibrating seats was very effective. Its also under water and after the film has finished the screens go up and she can see the birds diving down for food and eels.

Thank you for the great review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the Time Tripper experience — travelling through time from the dinosaur age is definitely a fun ride! The underwater setting and seeing the ducks and eels afterwards make it even more special. We hope to see you again on your next visit to Queenstown!

Great viewing experience of local history

The underwater theater screening is an interesting experience, though quite short (about 15 min) with interesting movie on local geological formations of lake Wakatipu and story around Queenstown. The Fish feeding show is impressive.
