Witness the beauty of Lake Whakatipu on board a vintage steamship (TSS Earnslaw, 1912) or on our stylish modern catamaran (Spirit of Queenstown) before indulging in a delicious gourmet BBQ lunch at Walter Peak High Country Farm
Highlights
- Gourmet barbecue lunch at the Colonel’s Homestead Restaurant
- Enjoy lakeside dining at Walter Peak, away from the bustle of Queenstown
- Includes the return scenic cruise on board the TSS Earnslaw to Walter Peak High Country Farm
- Be entertained by the farm demonstration
Your afternoon begins with a magical cruise across Lake Wakatipu aboard the vessel of your choice: either the TSS Earnslaw, a vintage steamship launched in 1912 with a rich in local pioneering history, or our modern catamaran with an outside viewing
deck with 360 degree views.
Once you arrive at Walter Peak High Country Farm on the opposite side of the lake, it is time to disembark and head towards the tranquil Colonel’s Homestead Restaurant situated in beautiful gardens.
The menu includes an extensive range of local and New Zealand produce, including succulent meats cooked on the rotisserie, freshly caught and locally sourced fish dishes, paired with a delicious range of vegetables and salads. Then finish with your dining experience with tantalising desserts, cheeses and freshly brewed tea and coffee.
Following lunch, guests have the opportunity to gain insight into high country life with an entertaining and informative farm demonstration, or explore the beautiful lakeside gardens.
A quintessential Kiwi experience combined with the elegance of a bygone era.

Fantastic!
We had a beautiful day travelling on the TSS Earnslaw and the views were stunning with autumn colours. The BBQ lunch was so high class with so many amazing choices - especially the deserts. Ashley and Mia put on an excellent farm show - very entertaining. Would definitely do this again if I come back to Queenstown!

Trip on the earslaw to Walter peak station
A perfect day to cruise on the SS Earnslaw to Walter Peak station for an excellent bbq lunch and sheep shearing, sheep dog demonstration. It was a well organised event and a grand day out on a grand, elderly working steamship.

La journee geniale! Nous avons pris le bateau direction walter peak, avec explication de l'histoire du bateau en francais sur un flyer ou en anglais au micro. Arrivons a la ferme et sommes diriges vers un show de chien de dressage ainsi que la tonte d'un mouton, super! Enfin le buffet est top, mis a part les pris assommant sur les boissons.
