Other Things to Note:
Queenstown has mountain weather, which can mean a cold outbreak, even in Summer. We recommend bringing a wind-proof and water-proof jacket and some warm clothing at any time of the year. Hiring a car is a very popular and convenient way to explore the Queenstown area and beyond. Remember that in New Zealand we drive on the left and our roads are often narrow and twisty. Don't fall into the trap of planning car travel times based on the distance you might be able to cover on a highway at home. The AA (Automobile Association) website offers great information and tips for visitors about driving conditions in New Zealand.
Interaction with Guests:
We give our guests complete privacy but we are available if required.
