Highlights
Experience one of Queenstown’s most iconic excursions with a relaxing cruise across Lake Wakatipu followed by a gourmet lakeside BBQ lunch at Walter Peak High Country Farm. Your journey begins aboard either the historic TSS Earnslaw steamship—an elegant, coal-fired vessel from 1912—or the modern Spirit of Queenstown catamaran, both offering stunning alpine views along the way. As you glide across the lake, enjoy open-air decks, breathtaking panoramas, and live commentary that shares stories about the region’s history and landscape.
Once you arrive at Walter Peak, settle in at the charming Colonel’s Homestead for a chef-prepared BBQ meal featuring premium local ingredients, fresh salads, seasonal vegetables, and indulgent desserts. After lunch, enjoy a classic Kiwi farm experience with sheep-shearing demonstrations and impressive sheepdog displays, or simply wander the beautifully kept lakeside gardens. It's a perfect blend of scenery, flavour, and farm charm—ideal for families, couples, and anyone wanting a relaxing day on the water.

The cruise and buffet were both fantastic! Especially the buffet – it had such a diverse and delicious menu. I particularly loved how beautifully everything was decorated, it was almost too pretty to eat!
The cruise was interesting and was big enough to handle crowds. Food wise at the buffet was pretty good as per any usual buffet and the show was interesting as well. If there were umbrellas provided for bad weather, it would be much better.
