Excellent trip on a perfectly restored historic steamship. The best way to see Lake Wakatipu. Wonderful experience.
This old steam ship is worth the trip in its own right, and the lake is very beautiful. We were unaware there was the option of a barbecue lunch, so didn't get off at Walter Peake as we could have done. Nevertheless, it was a good trip with lovely views. being able to see the steam engine at work was great.
The Lake Wakatipu Steamship Cruise from Queenstown is a must do trip when in Queenstown. An awesome time had on board. The scenery was stunning.
The scenery was stunning, the lake was calm when we went which made the trip smooth sailing. A beautiful vessel to take a trip on, rich in history and lovingly restored. Enjoy the views and take in where you are, don't just go for a joy ride like many people did the day we went, they were too busy chatting and drinking to really appreciate where you are, not even looking at the views, this may be a once in a lifetime experience for some.
Very pleasant cruise on a vintage steamship followed by a farm visit with sheepherding, sheep-shearing and an excellent afternoon tea. Would recommend this trip particularly for families with young children, a lovely afternoon out
