One of the things you have to do while you're in Queenstown. The views alone is worth the ride. More

We've already seen Lake Tekapo and Mount Cook when we went to Queenstown, so the view from the Gondola was not terribly impressive. The luge was fun, but not exceptional. More

If you are in Queenstown you have to go here for the views. Very nice facility, we only had some fries and wine (weird combo) so cannot comment on the food. I liked the whole experience. More

Great fun, but we went around dusk, and the pictures were not as good because of the shadows on the mountain and city. More

The view from a top of the mountain is fantastic. The gondola ride is great. We purchased the gondola ride along with lunch for $51NZD. I recommend anyone going up to do this. The lunch at the restaurant is buffet and really good. You will not be disappointed. The view from the restaurant, perched out over the mountain, is something... More

Went with the kids 8 and 5. The 8 year old went down on his own and the 5 year old was on my luge. Really good fun. Similar to the Rotorua luge. More

There is really nothing to beat the awesome views of Queenstown from the Gondola. Although I was too chicken to go on the Luge, those that were on it looked like they were having great fun, as were the trail bike riders who took the Gondola to the top and rode down. I loved the Gondola!! More

This is a must for anyone who comes to Queenstown. The view from the top is just great! Make sure you have spare battery for your camera as you will be taking many photos from the top. The luge ride was fun. More
