Million Dollar Lake Cruise

This cruise was an awesome way to spend enjoy some spectacular Queenstown weather exploring the Frankton Arm. Our skipper was well versed in interesting historical facts and figures on the town and the lake, including all the marine and birdlife found there. Excellent service provided from the on-board cafe. Nothing was too much trouble for the duo, even pausing to take photos of anyone who wished - infront of the Remarkables. Highly recommended!
