Hot Pool + Stargazing
A must do experience if you're in queenstown. The guides were amazing and took us through the journey of stars post which we soaked in the hot pools to enjoy stargazing. Totally worth every penny.

If you're at Lake Tekapo, you MUST do this
Sitting on a floating hammock in a hot springs, gazing at the stars as clearly as you'll ever see them ! Excellent hosts also, with a wealth of knowledge. Get on it !

Ok
Average experience- too expensive for what you get. Would not do it again, even with a clear sky. Guide has good knowledge, but bit hard too follow if you are not a native english speaker. Guest Service experience could be better I experienced some mansplaining. Not cool. Missing some female staff here as well.

Stargazing on Tekapo Spring
因天空不作美導致連一顆星星都看不到，但AR介紹及導覽員非常認真的介紹以及說明Tekapo跟Mackenzie的歷史跟有趣的事，值得一推
