ITINERARY:

Day 1: WANAKA - QUEENSTOWN

We pick you up at Wanaka Airport before making our way into the Kawerau gorge, time to go for a ride in a Jet boat and those ones not wanting to do this can explore a historic gold mining area.

We then stop at the Bungy bridge, anyone keen can jump at the place where the bungy jumps where invented. We allow time for the Arrowtown, site of many 'Lord of the Rings' locations and a great place to go shopping before driving the last few kilometers to Queenstown, our final destination

Overnight: Queenstown

.

DAY 2: QUEENSTOWN

In the morning we make our way to the Bungy bridge, time for a jump if you like to do it!

Then we allow time for a lunch break in the old Gold mining city ‘Arrowtown’. In the afternoon  you have time to get to know Queenstown, a great place to see the town and the stunning location is from the Top of the Gondola, where you also may try to go for a luge ride. You also have the options to enjoy some of the Adventure Activities in Queenstown or get to know some remote parts of the country, such as ‘Skipper’s Canyon or go Fun yaking in the Paradise valley; a very well known area thanks to the Lord of the Rings trilogy and the 'Milka cow commercials'. The ‘Lord of the Rings’ Fans will enjoy a trip to Deer Park Heights, were many locations can be found.
