At Walter Peak farm in Queenstown, history comes alive, showcasing the rich pastoral traditions that have shaped the region. Marvel at the rustic beauty of the homestead and Restaurant Garden, steeped in stories of the pioneering spirit.

I booked this last minute at around 10pm for the next day at 1pm. Everything NZ processed my booking first thing the next morning and confirmed all was in order for our booking. The team is really helpful and immediately responsive on live chat via their website. Super happy and impressed with their service.
Review for TSS Earnslaw Cruise
Nice trip across the lake to the Farmhouse, good views all round. What makes it better the Steamship Earnslaw.
Review for TSS Earnslaw Cruise and Walter Peak Gourmet BBQ Dining
A trip on the Lake on the Earnslaw is a MUST for all visitors to Queenstown. To experience such an old steamship on a beautiful Lake is 'something else'. We did not include the optional Farm visit and from the comments of some who did we are glad we didn't stop there. They said the stopover was "far too long for what is on offer there".
