  • Queenstown - In New Zealand’s South Island, discover the gateway to stunning fiords, glaciers, ski fields, vineyards and adventure. Click play to see the best of the city.
    When ready, browse vacation packages to Queenstown: www.expedia.com/Queenstown.d1...
    The lake-side city of #Queenstown provides the pulse that keeps this remote corner of the world energetic and youthful. Kiwis have the spirit of adventure running through their veins - become a part of it with a #vacation here.
    Experience the beauty of Lake Wakatipu aboard the TSS Earnslaw. Soak up the Aotearoa sunshine on a sandy beach or in Queenstown Gardens. Queenstown expands and contracts with the rhythm of the seasons. After the hectic summer, the town transforms into a world-class ski destination. When the snow melts, Queenstown transforms again to accommodate visitors who flock to the Arrow Basin to explore its charming historic towns.
    The Kiwis know when it’s time to slow down, unwind and enjoy the finer things in life. Queenstown and the nearby Gibbston Valley are home to over 75 wineries, where vintners produce pinot noirs acclaimed for their purity, freshness and vitality, a perfect reflection of the region itself!
    For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.

    Queenstown is in my back yard. There are many beautiful places in the south island. Plus we are pretty friendly, especially on the west coast...No wars, no guns, no pollution, no hurry. PS. Bring lots of money, it is expensive to live here..especially Queenstown...Safe travels.

      +Gerard Brien It's a shame you didn't get to spend lockdown here bro. We tackled the pandemic like a BOSS and now it truly is a relative safe haven, paradise on earth. I really feel sorry for those that can't return, or travel here. If the citizens had it our way, most of us would be very accommodating and welcoming towards those that are essentially refugees. So long as you self isolate at our borders for a fortnight, we'd most likely welcome thousands of foreigners in (trust me, it would be worth the wait).
      Unfortunately, our government currently won't allow it.

    I visited Queenstown 2 years back it is the heart and jewel of New Zealand and the very essence of what it is to be kiwi. The weather, the avid scenery, the local eateries like Fergburger and the never ending list of adventure sports. For the LOTR fans out there a place called Glenorchy roughly 30-40 km from Queenstown is where a lot of the famous movie scenes were shot. My sister lives in New Zealand and i will definitely keep on coming back for more and who knows might even settle down there!

I only got to spend about 4 days in total there when I went, but those were the most enjoyable 4 consecutive days of my life. Seriously, if you get the chance to go to this place- and just New Zealand in general- do NOT pass it up! It will gift you with stories to tell for the rest of your life.

    Great video! We've been to NZ twice, but we went to Queenstown only once. NZ and Queenstown are both beautiful we loved our time there!!

    We were there last week. One of the best place what i have ever seen. City and the mountains are unforgettable. Remarkable ski fields are perfect for the beginners to the pro. Everybody can enjoy it. I love this place
