Resplan
Börja dagen med att träffa din vänliga guide i Queenstown Town Centre. Börja med en spektakulär naturskön bilresa från Queenstown till Glenorchy längs sjökanten, med natursköna fotoplatser och underhållande berättelser från din lokala guide om Lake Whakatipu och dess legender.
När vi reser längs denna otroliga bilresa kommer vi att stanna och ta in den fantastiska utsikten från Bennett's Bluff. Härifrån kan du få en första glimt av Glenorchy och Mount Aspiring National Park som ligger bortom den.
Glenorchy township är hem för ca. 400 permanenta invånare och porten till Paradise Valley och Mt Aspiring National Park. När vi väl anländer till denna pittoreska landsort har du chansen att utforska den pittoreska sjön inklusive det ikoniska röda båtskjulet.
Från Glenorchy följer vi en grusväg, en enkelriktad väg in i nationalparken. Glenorchy-Paradise Road färdas förbi rik jordbruksmark, genom inhemska bokskogar och över flodbäddar. Inte många lever upp i denna riktning, med dess mest kända invånare är de mystiska karaktärerna från LOTR och andra filmer, TV-serier och reklamfilmer.
Din guide kommer att visa dig kända filmplatser, med även chansen att klä ut dig till din favoritfigur från Middle Earth för en rolig fotomöjlighet. Medan vi utforskar området, i sann Kiwi South Island gästfrihet, kommer vi att förbereda ett morgon/eftermiddagste på en pittoresk plats, komplett med ostrullar, ingefärakaka, L&P och Whittakers choklad.
Efter Paradiset kommer vi tillbaka genom Glenorchy, där vi kommer att ha ett kort stopp, innan vi låter dig luta dig tillbaka och koppla av och njuta av sevärdheterna och sedan släpps tillbaka i Queenstown Town Centre.

Overpriced for the content. Stopped in a field of flies that bit everyone and heaps in the cars. It authentic experience with a Canadian guide
Thank you for joining us and for taking the time to share your feedback. While Glenorchy is certainly somewhere you can drive to independently, we believe the difference in joining a guided experience comes from everything along the way - the local knowledge, commentary, stories and insights our guides share, as well as the opportunity to connect with your group and discover some of the "lesser-known" spots you may otherwise pass by. Thank you again for joining us, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future. :)

This scenic tour out to Glenorchy and Paradise was absolutely phenomenal. The pacing was flawless—every single stop was timed perfectly, allowing just the right amount of time to take in the breathtaking valleys and mountains without ever feeling rushed. As someone who relies entirely on guided tours rather than driving, having such seamless logistics made the experience entirely stress-free. Our guide, Shanay, was the absolute highlight of the trip. She went above and beyond in explaining the history, ecology, and facts about the natural landmarks we visited. Her deep knowledge and storytelling really brought the scenery to life, and I especially appreciated that her commentary focused on the fascinating reality of the region rather than just relying on standard Lord of the Rings movie trivia. We truly couldn't have wished for a better guide. Highly recommend!

It was a very lovely experience. Even though it was foggy at the start the weather cleared up later on revealing the mountains of Mt Aspiring National Park. The commentary given by Shanay was very informative and done in a fun interactive way! The snack was also very good!

Standing in Glenorchy felt like stepping back in time. For a moment, it genuinely felt as if I had wandered onto the set of The Lord of the Rings, with the iconic tower and breathtaking landscapes making it easy to imagine the filming happening right in front of me. Looking beyond Glenorchy, I could almost picture Tom Cruise racing through the mountains during the Mission: Impossible shoot. The place has an incredible cinematic atmosphere that makes you feel like you’re living inside the movies, not just visiting a filming location.
Thank you for such a wonderful and vivid review! We love hearing that Glenorchy transported you straight into the world of the movies. Its dramatic landscapes really do make it easy to imagine the scenes from The Lord of the Rings and Mission: Impossible unfolding around you.
