Townsville girls trip.

Staff are very courteous and informative. Child friendly service. Hire sled off them for $20 as it is cheaper than on the mountain. Cash is easier for staff when hiring sled. They provide carrots, raisins, plastic jewels and pipe cleaners for you to use to build a snowman.

Snow Play - Coronet Peak Best time ever

Took my grandson on the Snow Play to Coronet Peak. He had never seen snow. We had the best time making a snow man with Accessories given to us by the driver. We had a snow fight and made angels in the snow. The trip up the mountain was great checking out all the scenery on the way. It takes about 20 minutes each way. I would highly recommend the snow play if you don't ski/toboggan and don't want to do the drive up yourself. I was worried about driving with snow chains and this took the worry away. Best time ever. So enjoyable.

Great first snow experience for the kids!!!!!

We had a great time on the Snow Adventure. Great communication, all questions answered. Picked up and dropped off on time. We hired the sleds that the kids loved. Received a great pack to build a snowman too. Will be coming again!!

Terrific

This trip didn't disappoint, our driver was great and the snow location was magical. A little confusion about pick up address but we figured it out in plenty of time.

We had such a great time...

We had such a great time sledding. The snow was perfect—soft and just enough to make every slide super fun. The hills weren’t too big, so it was safe for the kids but still exciting for the adults. It was honestly one of the best spots for our first time Our whole family had a blast running up and zooming down the slopes together. There were lots of laughs, some friendly races, and plenty of snowy fun. The views around the area made everything feel even more special — you really get that fresh mountain vibe. On top of that, the service was great! Everyone there was friendly and helpful, which made the day even better. If you’re looking for a chill place to spend a snowy day with family or friends, Viator is definitely worth checking out. Just bring along good vibes and warm clothes, and get ready for some good, old-fashioned winter fun!

Snow play Coronet Peak

Viator had the wrong address to meet up at. Tried to contact driver to no avail. Accidentally came across the van speaking to other people waiting as it was 1.00. Super stressful way to begin.

Very good

The tour was good. Meeting point was incorrectly mentioned. Mentioned meeting point, No 43 Lichfield Street is far away from the real meeting point. Please correct the address of the meeting point.

Thank you so much for your review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour. We’ve double-checked our information, and the meeting point is listed as 43 Camp Street, which is correct. We do not have a Lichfield Street in Queenstown, but we’re keen to investigate further if there has been any error or something we may have missed. Please feel free to contact us directly so we can look into this for you. Thanks again for your feedback, and we hope to see you on another adventure soon!

Best host and transfer in town!

going blue have been absolutely amazing to us! We booked a shuttle last minute for a large group and Jason was very accomodating. He has been kind, professoinal and easy to deal with. Would highly recommend Going Blue for any transport in queenstown.
