Save Time & Money with these Queenstown Combo Tours!

Combos … combination tours … combining two or more activities is fast becoming a popular option for those enthusiastic busy travellers not only wanting to save a dollar, but perhaps more importantly these days – time!

Booking activities in themselves can be a very time-consuming and monotonous process; and therefore, having activities organised in such a way as to maximise time, is crucial.

In a busy tourist town such as Queenstown with literally hundreds of “things to do”, travellers are intent on ticking off as many activities as possible into as little time as possible.  It is common knowledge that Queenstown is not a cheap destination and staying for a shorter period of time whilst still accomplishing the “must dos” is the intelligent way to go!

Over the past couple of years, this has become more and more apparent, especially when our clients contact us to request changes to their wine tour dates to fit in with their other activities.  How laborious for them!  We had a lightbulb moment — hey, we’re locals, we have the know-how and the relationships; let’s add the booking of other activities (together with ours) to our repertoire.

So, with the help of our combination business partners, who have provided us with discounted prices, we are now able to offer an array of cost-effective combos!

For our direct clients it’s as easy as booking through our website and for our local agents, our online booking system … but of course, all bookings can still be made by a good old simple phone call to us.

These activities not only complement our own wine tours but are some of the most popular “tick off” activities in the Queenstown region.

We are delighted to present combination tours :
