Queenstown Tours

Queenstown’s abundance of adrenalin-laden activities is mind-boggling. The epic landscape inspires that spirit of grand adventure that has you jumping off a bridge tied only to a giant rubber band (in fact, nearby Kawarau Bridge is where commercial bungy jumping was invented!), or hurtling through a canyon in a jet-powered vessel, or leaping from a plane strapped (securely) to a stranger – it really is the best place to get some big items crossed off your bucket list. If more gentle adventure is your thing, not to worry, Queenstown can deliver on that too, with plenty of hikes, wine trails, 4WD tours and scenic cruises on offer. On your Queenstown holiday, package together your own combination of activities from our diverse activity selection to personalise your experience. Haka tours which feature Queenstown tour packages include all our South Island tours.

Given that it’s one of the great alpine regions of the world, Queenstown definitely takes its après ski responsibilities seriously. Ice bars, lakeside pubs, fine dining restaurants, cocktail lounges, craft beer courtyards with outdoor fires, pumping clubs, relaxed pizza joints, and cosy wine bars featuring the world’s best pinot noir – it’s all here to explore, taste and enjoy. Of course, there are some stand outs, including that world famous burger bar open 21 hours a day (that’s not a typo) with legendary queues for their legendary burgers.

1. Hike up the Tiki Trail to Bob’s Peak which overlooks Queenstown (part of the the Ben Lomond mountain), or take a ride up the Southern Hemisphere’s steepest gondola. Once at the top, take your fill of views and photo opportunities, then race down the hill in a plastic sled with wheels attached on one of the two luge tracks. It’s world-class fun for two or more people.
2. The Queenstown Gardens jut out into Lake Wakatipu and provide fantastic views of the town and the mountains. The Gardens are also home to a Disc (frisbee) golf course! Disc golf has similar rules to regular golf but here frisbees are thrown at 18 targets = hours of cheap fun for all! Your Haka guide will know where to get maps and scorecards, and you can even hire frisbees.

Stay at our Haka Lodge in Queenstown which is just a short walk from Lake Wakatipu and the famous Fergburger! As well as free and unlimited Wi-Fi (upload all your Queenstown images to Instagram), the hostel features multiple well equipped kitchens, numerous bathrooms, cosy lounges, outdoor chill-out areas, and more!
