Highly recommend this! - I highly recommend this tour. I saw bungy jumping, a winery, Arrowtown, a world famous golf course, great views and more. After a few days of hiking, it was ice to sit and see the sights, with frequent stops to get out and explore. My tour guide, Paul, was extremely knowledgeable about the area. He was very pleasant and willing to answer any question. I learned so much. Don’t miss this one!

Great way to see a few areas just outside town - This was a great way to see a few areas just outside central Queenstown, especially if you do not have a car. The guide's description and history of the area was fun and helpful. I ended up getting off the tour at the last stop in Arrowtown to explore there more and take the city bus back to Queenstown center, which was very easy and only a few dollars. The guide was helpful in pointing out the bus stop.

I recently went on the... - I recently went on the Queenstown Highlights Tour with my parents, and it was hands down the best tour we’ve done. Our driver/guide was incredibly professional, friendly, and patient. I was travelling with my mum, who is disabled, and I truly appreciated how attentive and considerate he was throughout the day — it made the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable for all of us. The tour was well-paced and covered so many beautiful spots, but the highlight for us was the winery visit and wine tasting. The scenery was stunning, the wine was excellent, and it was such a relaxing way to take in the Queenstown atmosphere. My mum loved every moment, which meant so much to us. I highly recommend this tour to anyone — especially families or those travelling with elderly or disabled loved ones. A truly memorable Queenstown experience!

Scenic Wonderland - My cousin and I did the morning tour with Craig. I was incapacitated and Craig did a great job of guiding my cousin to the more inaccessible spots. The tour was good value and covered some wonderful scenic spots.

Great views of Queenstown - We did the Queenstown Highlights Tour with Appellation Wine Tours Co. Convenient pickup at our Airbnb, small group of 6! Guide was awesome driving us to several different viewing spots for some great photos. We stopped and saw the bungee jumping and went to a winery for an included wine tasting which was fun - if you didn’t want the wine you could have beer or a nonalcoholic drink ( wine tasting of 4 different kinds was my choice but hubby chose beer). We also went to Arrowtown which is an old gold mining town- I thought it would be more historic but actually looks more like a tourist trap filled with shops - could’ve skipped that. Guide was great- gave us a bit of history as he drove us around and did a great job of keeping everyone on track
