Queenstown

After breakfast we depart across the patchwork Canterbury Plains


 and enter Mackenzie country. A stop is made to view the famous Church of the Good Shepherd at Lake Tekapo

 before continuing alongside the azure-blue waters of Lake Pukaki into the majestic Southern Alps region 

dominated by Mount Cook.

 Later, we carry on via the town of Omarama, and across the stark and beautiful 

Lindis Pass. From here our journey winds into the orchard district of Cromwell


 and the rugged Kawarau Gorge 

before reaching the historic gold mining township of Arrowtown.

 Here we have a chance to revisit New Zealand's Gold Rush years and wander the historical streets of the town. Then we travel on to the beautiful resort area of Queenstown.



Centrally located on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, our hotel offers 4-star tranquillity at Novotel Queenstown Lakeside." Start your day fresh with a breath of mountain air on your balcony and a delicious buffet breakfast in the airy restaurant. Your welcoming room awaits you to soak up Queenstown's natural beauty at the end of a great day at Novotel."
