What a wicked experience. We highly recommend putting this on your bucket adventure list when coming to Queenstown. It well exceeded our expectations. Whatever the weather you will come out beaming. It was awesome. We cannot speak more highly of Scott our guide. He was a fantastic guide and made us fell safe and able to push ourselves. Couldn't stop smiling for hours. Another highlight was Scotts knowledge of all of the history surrounding Queenstown and took the time to guide us though this whilst we took in the spectacular views. Again a MUST DO. Thanks Scott for a great afternoon.Kateshepherd19

Fantastic afternoon adventure! Ryan was an awesome tour guide and made sure we were safe and had fun throughout the trip. The adrenaline filled buggy took us through bush and mud and dirt tracks up to some amazing views over Queenstown! We ended up covered in mud by the end of it, but they supply overall covers so we remained clean underneath! Would recommend this experience for your next trip to Queenstown!AbbeyY17
