Upon arriving at Walter Peak, you have the option of disembarking to explore or take a guided farmyard walk where you will get an insight into what life is like on a kiwi high-country farm, and see friendly farm animals including highland cattle, sheep, deer, and alpacas.

A thoroughly enjoyable day!
Another well organised and very enjoyable activity to do in Queenstown and the inclusion of Walter Peak High Country Farm made the day extra special. The High Tea is a highlight - Would appeal to all ages..

Tss Earnslaw
Even though the weather was changable, we enjoyed this cruise. Crew kept us safe with adequate spacing and were courteous with the 2 older folks I had with me. Windows were clear... not fogged up, so we had great views. I would have liked to choose the High Tea for the journey home, but rather expensive at $45 pp! We chose a cup of tea and sweet cakes to share which was more than adequate. We did miss the ‘piano man’ of past cruises. Interesting watching the great engine working. We had a safe and enjoyable trip (:

A lovely trip
We have been on the ship before so we knew what to expect. The views are breathtaking and would alone make the trip worthwhile. The farm walk was a delight, the highlight being the sheepdog show. What a wonderful animal, The close-up experience of the other animals was great as well. Altogether a very good few hours.
