Taste your way through the Gibbston Valley wines on a wine tour from Queenstown that includes wine tastings.

Enjoy an afternoon of drinking local wines and/or craft beers without worrying about getting home safely on this wine and craft beer tour. This small-group tour will take you to three wineries or breweries in the Gibbston region, with tastings at each and shared antipasto platters are provided at one of the locations. As you go, your guide will tell you all about the region’s history on the way, for an enjoyable and informative evening trip. Transfers from central Queenstown are included.

Witness the majesty of the Southern Alps from both the ground and the air on this full-day, small-group combination bus, helicopter, and ski plane tour. Most travelers miss the opportunity to see the area from so many different vantage points. Heading out from Queenstown, see the azure waters of Lake Dunstan and Lake Pukaki before spotting Mount Cook’s (Aoraki’s) snow-capped peaks cresting the horizon. Then, hop aboard your aircraft for a flight through the mountains, including a landing at Tasman Glacier.

-Road‑trip and photo shoot in one: Guests get to explore the region’s scenic highlights and have professional photos taken at each stop rather than staying in one location. -Dramatic alpine backdrops: Once in the national park, the session uses New Zealand’s highest mountains, glaciers and even the icebergs on Tasman Lake as backdrops. Very few visitors get personal photos in front of these sights. -Tailored timing and extras: The itinerary is flexible so that your photographer can adjust stops to catch golden‑hour light at Lake Pukaki or Tasman. If conditions allow, you may even be photographed under the stars or the Milky Way – a rare addition to a couples’ shoot! -Personalized, natural approach: As a private experience with your personal photographer, the experience stays relaxed. Gentle prompts help couples look natural in photos, and the end result is a unique gallery that blends their story with some of New Zealand’s most spectacular landscapes.
