Introducing Queenstown & Wanaka
If Queenstown didn’t exist, someone would have to invent it. With a cinematic background of mountains and lakes you actually have seen in the movies, and a ‘what can we think of next?’ array of adventure activities, it’s little wonder that the South Island’s premier tourist town tops many travellers’ Kiwi itineraries. This Disneyland of derring-do will prompt a hundred synonyms for ‘exciting’ and ‘thrilling’ for your travel journal, but lurking in and around the tangle of bungy cords are experiences that will last longer than a shriek-inducing 10 or 20 seconds.
Venture out on the Greenstone and Routeburn Tracks for extended outdoor thrills amid arguably New Zealand’s most stunning scenery, or sample world-beating wines in world-beating surroundings in the Gibbston Valley. If you listen really closely, you might even hear the screams of glee across the road at bungy’s birthplace, the Kawarau River.
