Discover New Zealand in April

Beautiful hotel. We stayed here for the view but from our room it was obstructed by another building unfortunately. Great restaurant! Amazing staff who literally do it all - bar tend, shuttle driver, receptionist. Only complaint was too far to walk every time. About 40 min to town center.

Wow! The view out the window! Ski lodge vibes.

The room was huge and well located in town

Great location!

Beautiful cruise out to station. Enjoyed the sheep show.

Glad we made the waterfall overlook. Not sure it would have been worth it if we didn’t. Same drive as Glenorchy tour and funyak tour.

So beautiful! So much fun!

We could have skipped this. Nice guide but basically got to see all of the same area on funyak trip

Beautiful area to zip line through.

Fun way to get to the top. Great view and nice restaurant

Liked it much more than I expected from the pics! Definitely worth doing.

Well organized experience

We had a partially cloudy night )4 stars because of that) but had an amazing guide to make up for it. What a great set up they have!

One of my favorite experiences of the whole trip.

This was very informational and we enjoyed the stroll around the geothermal area after our tour was done.

My adult kids loved the cultural show. They were worried it would be in some way disrespectful to the Māori people and were really impressed with the care and authenticity of the production. Plenty of food!

Amazing!!! Just blown away by detail and the ability to go inside a hobbit hole!

Great way to start our NZ adventure

Beautiful accommodations, outstanding service, a wonderful included breakfast, and a great location are some of the reasons we loved this hotel. There was roadwork at the time that made it tricky to get to, but when we were close someone from the hotel saw us and came out to show us where to park then helped with our luggage. We were sorry to only have one night there, and highly recommend it as a home base when you are visiting Queenstown.

Loved the island but wouldn't do the Hop On Hop Off bus next time. We were there in the fall and maybe it's different during high season but the schedule had us waiting a lot, and we wasted a lot of time we could have spent exploring the island and the wineries.

While this was one of the things I wanted to make sure I experienced on our trip to New Zealand (I was an anthropology major and loved studying about the Maori) I was a little suspicious that this might feel too "touristy". By the end of a delightful evening all fears were allayed. Actually meeting the extended family who operate Te Pa Tu, the variety of ways they showed you what life in one of their villages would have been like (with interactive events), listening to their fabulous singing and chants (oh my gosh what voices they have!), and sitting down to a feast with them scattered among the guests so you could learn more one on one - I mean, what more could you ask for?
