Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Reis op Queenstown's Lake - Lake Wakatipu voor de hele reis tot het einde van het meer en terug.
De reis begint in Queenstown Bay, terwijl je uitvaart, passeer je Queenstown Gardens en zie je Queenstown Central langs de kustlijn.
Vervolgens krijgt u de prachtige golfbaan van Queenstown te zien, die direct op het schiereiland Kelvin Heights ligt en uitkijkt over het prachtige Lake Wakatipu. Hun kusten zijn een gemeenschappelijke plek voor de lokale bevolking om te gaan varen en zwemmen. Je gaat dan door de 90% kalme wateren en bekijkt de huizen van een miljoen dollar langs de kustlijn.
Terwijl je langs wilgeneilanden vaart en lokale vogels ziet, banen we ons een weg naar beneden naar de historische Kawarau Falls Dam die het begin van de beroemde Kawarau-rivier markeert.
De opmerkelijke bergketen - stop voor foto's.
We banen ons vervolgens een weg langs de tegenoverliggende kustlijn waar je de Frankton Arm-kustlijn kunt zien, waar de lokale bevolking vaak komt om te genieten van het water in de zomer en dan terug langs de Frankton Arm Trail die ons veilig terugbrengt naar Queenstown Bay.

We booked the Million Dollar Cruise in Queenstown for a family outing and it exceeded expectations. The host was brilliant — genuinely entertaining, full of local stories and history about the lake and the old steamships, and great with the kids the whole trip. They even had toys on board to keep the little ones occupied, which was a lovely touch we weren’t expecting. The views out over Lake Wakatipu and the Remarkables were stunning, and the boat felt comfortable and well looked after. The onboard bar was reasonably priced too, which made it easy to relax with a drink while the kids played. Would happily recommend this to any family visiting Queenstown — a great mix of scenery, history, and genuine hospitality. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town. Five stars all round!
Kia ora, Thank you for such a lovely review! It is amazing to hear you and the family enjoyed your time on board. It's great to know our team helped make the experience so memorable with the commentary and of entertainment for the kids. There's nothing quite like taking in the views of Lake Wakatipu and The Remarkables, and we're pleased you were able to relax with a drink while the little ones had fun. We hope to see you again soon!
The trip on the Million dollar II is highly recommended. The captain narrating the cruise was informative and very entertaining. Guests were given an opportunity to have family/group photos taken off the front of the boat with the stunning Remarkables in the background. Kids had a chance to drive the boat for a little bit. The on board staff were super friendly. With the winter chill it was best to retire to the cabin after an initial stint on the viewing platform.
Kia ora Peter, thanks for the glowing review! We are glad you enjoyed your time on board with us, and found the commentary both entertaining and informative. Glad to hear you got some great shots!
Had a few hours to kill before our afternoon flight so opted to do the 90 minute cruise. It was very scenic with excellent commentary during the cruise. Good size vessel so you don’t feel crowded at all. Managed to get into lake locations that bigger operators wouldn’t be able to. Good close up viewing of some great nz native birds and shore lined mansions. Captain was great with the kids onboard, allowing them to have a turn at the wheel.
Kia ora John, thanks for joining us! We are glad that you enjoyed the commentary, and felt there was heaps of room on board. It is awesome that you got to see the Pūteketeke up close. Thanks again for coming on board, we are glad you had a great time.

We have done this little tour before. Captain is very nice and knowledgeable and GG was a great helper and kept us well hydrated with the mulled wines. Great way to spend 1 1/2 hours and to see the Lake from a different view.
It's great to hear that you have been on our cruise before and have come back again for another great experience with us. See you all again in the future.
The guide was informative and the cruise was fun. The man tending the bar was very helpful, kind, and friendly.

We are so glad you enjoyed your time on board with us! Thank you for the kind review.
The cruise was exactly what we needed as it’s our first time in Queenstown. Having a close-up tour of Lake Wakatipu with an incredibly knowledgable captain, as well as a few photo opportunities, was amazing. We highly recommend this.
Thank you for the sweet review. Lake Wakatipu is beautiful this time of year, and we are so glad you could join us for a tour!
