Boat Tours in Queenstown

Queenstown and its surrounds are dominated not only by soaring mountains but also a myriad of waterways. Take in the pristine lakes and raging rivers of Queenstown on a variety of boat tours that enable you to enjoy the serenity of cruising on turquoise waters surrounded by magnificent mountains and fiords. If you’re captivated by history, a cruise on the iconic historic steamship TSS Earnslaw will ferry you down the stunning Lake Wakatipu in style. The Earnslaw steamship offers several different departures daily including lunch & dinner cruises.

The unparalleled Milford Sound can be explored on a day tour combining a coach ride and cruise or the popular flight & cruise option. If you have time, Milford Sound is best enjoyed on an overnight cruise that will give you the opportunity to revel in an enchanting live aboard experience. 

Or take a cruise on the less well known but just as spectacular Doubtful Sound, the second largest fjord in the Fiordland National Park World Heritage area. Spend a night on board the exquisite Fiordland Navigator overnight boat or do a day tour from Queenstown. Whichever option you choose, the experience will remain with you for a long time to come.
