7 Day - Queenstown Luxury Getaway & Escape NZ

7 Day - Queenstown Luxury Getaway & Escape NZ

Queenstown, a jewel in New Zealand’s crown, is a destination that offers a unique blend of heart-pounding excitement and soul-soothing tranquillity. Nestled amidst majestic mountains and graced by the serene presence of a lake, Queenstown is a haven of fun, indulgence, and relaxation. It's a place where you can truly unwind and enjoy the finer things in life.

Queenstown, nestled on the shore of Lake Wakatipu amidst dramatic alpine ranges, is a global icon of adventure. But it's not all about adrenaline here. If you prefer a more serene pace, there are plenty of options too. Explore one of the many tranquil walking and hiking trails, take a leisurely sightseeing tour, or indulge in spa treatments, boutique shopping, and exquisite food and wine.

Day 1: Queenstown arrival
  • Airport Meet and Greet, transfer to hotel. Explore all that the Queenstown city centre has to offer. Queenstown boasts excellent shopping with luxury brands, iconic New Zealand design stores, and souvenirs. Enjoy a gourmet dinner at one of the local eateries in the evening or have it prepared by your private chef at your premium lodge.

Day 2: Queenstown - Area tour of charming Historic Arrowtown
  • Travel back in time to the historic gold-mining settlement of Arrowtown. Savour a long lunch, sip some wines and soak in our stunning scenery at Aryburn.
  • Indulge in a 5-star lunch at an award-winning Amisfield winery. Enjoy a private wine tasting at Gibbston Valley or The Cloudy Bay Shed.
Day 3: Queenstown - Day trip to Fiordland National Park, A world wonder
  • Venture on a breathtaking, romantic scenic flight to Milford Sounds, part of Fiordland National Park, one of New Zealand's iconic sceneries, and internationally recognised as part of the wider World Heritage side.

  • Or take an exhilarating helicopter flight to Earnslaw Burn for that Ultimate Paradise Picnic, surrounded by

    a paradise of hanging glaciers and waterfalls.

Day 4: Queenstown - Day trip to Glenorchy/ OUr little Paradise
  • Explore the stunning Glenorchy and Paradise Valleys nearby. Visit movie locations, glacier rivers, and ancient forests. Here, the Wilderness Jet boat adventure takes you on an unforgettable journey along the braided, glacier-fed Dart River. 

  • Or zipline through the beautiful native forest canopy, just meters above water, as you wind down the gorge. During the whole experience, you are surrounded by forever-changing views in a beautiful native beech forest.
Day 5: Queenstown - Day trip to beautiful  Lake Wanaka 
  • Tour Cardrona Distillery and learn everything there is to know about the world of gin and whisky.

  • Visit The Wanaka Tree, New Zealand's "Wanaka Willow', or "the lone tree of Lake Wanaka", is one of those things you would never have heard of if it weren't for social media.

  • Take a 4WD Nature Safari adventure in the stunning surroundings of Mt Aspiring National Park, which has a rich history of Maoris and Setters.

  • Or join an Eco Cruise on Lake Wanaka & take a romantic nature walk on Mou Waho Island. (It is an island, in a lake, in an island, in a lake, in an island in the ocean)
Day 6: Queenstown  
  • Spend the day relaxing and exploring the local area. There are many stunning walks to discover.

  • Soak in our Onsen Hot Pools overlooking the Shotover River and a newly expanded day spa facility with exclusive-use hot tubs. The relaxation and pampering on offer here are second to none in the region, as endorsed by a recent win in the 2023 World Luxury Spa Awards.

  • You can also play golf at an internationally acclaimed golf course, horse treks through Lord of the Rings scenery, bike through wine valleys, fly fish in one of the stunning backcountry mountain rivers, and more.
The most highly recommended City Hotels for this tour:  
  • If you're looking for luxury, check out The Rees Hotel Apartments, conveniently located next to Lake Wakatipu. It's the ideal place to soak up Queenstown's alpine Queenstown. 
  • Built with money from New Zealand's 19th-century gold rush, Hulbert House has been lovingly restored to create a luxurious Victorian guesthouse a stone's throw from the centre of Queenstown.
  • An old-world hotel in a new-world town, the Sofitel Hotel provides a sophisticated respite from adrenaline-charged Queenstown, the centre of New Zealand's adventure tourism industry. Rooms are spacious and classic—there are no fashionable fads here—and the Left Bank restaurant is stubbornly French.
  • We're partial to the luxurious Eichardt's Private Eichardt, conveniently situated in the heart of Queenstown, right on Lake Wakatipu's doorstep. This local icon is home to gorgeous suites, apartments, residences, a penthouse with 24-hour butler service, a private chef, and an elevator to the hotel's restaurant. 
  • Blanket Bay is New Zealand's Ultimate Alpine Escape, voted one of the world's best luxury lodges*. Set on the shores of Lake Wakatipu amidst the rugged snowcapped peaks of the Southern Alps, Blanket Bay is where relaxation and adventure meet luxury accommodations, unparalleled service, and five-star facilities.
