Fantastic 5.0
omg.. 10/10 experience. i did the Nevis Swing w my partner and we did forwards - truly jawdropping and the G is unlike anything we’ve ever experienced before - we do a lot of thrilling activities. do note that the pickup location is in town area and you will be transported on a 4WD bus to go up the mountain - around 40min drive. staff were very friendly and i suggest you cater about 4 hours for this experience in case of bad winds or bad weather. we almost couldn’t swing due to the major winds but thankfully we waited it out! had to reschedule our other later appointment but alls good. highly recommend!!!!

Pinewood Lodge and Apartments in Queenstown is a relaxed, budget-friendly spot that suits backpackers, families, and groups alike. The setup is more like a village, with different lodges and apartments spread across leafy grounds. Rooms are basic but comfortable, and you can choose from dorms, private units, or self-contained apartments depending on your needs. Shared kitchens and lounges make it easy to cook and meet other travelers, while the location is just a short walk from town. It’s not luxury, but it’s practical, social, and affordable—ideal if you want a base close to Queenstown’s action without breaking the bank.

Klook booking and and all is excellent, however will review the hotel that we were check-in late, instead of 2PM, the room is not yet ready at 2:30PM, which I find off and also the bath tab has stains which is discouraging to use.

The bed is very soft, and you sink right into it. Breakfast options are limited, but you can make your own waffles and juice. The accommodation isn't in the busiest area, but there are supermarkets, parking lots, restaurants, and a laundromat nearby. Driving to the most lively area takes about 15 minutes.

A wonderful experience, glad we followed a day tour instead of self drive so we could admire the view better, be relaxed and learn more about each of the pit stops (eg. monkey creek). Loved the cruise ride had great weather and views! the food on the cruise was good too! We went for the last tour which set off at 8am from Crowne Plaza and boarded the last cruise out at 2.30pm. It’ll be good to have some light snacks else lunch will be served quite late. We had the falafel (vegan) wrap which was served cold and still yummy while the chicken pie was served warm! both options were yummy!
