This four-hour tour begins with a scenic cruise across Lake Wakatipu departing from Queenstown on your choice of two vessels: the vintage TSS Earnslaw steamship or the modern Spirit of Queenstown. On arrival at Walter Peak High Country Farm, guests enter the Colonel’s Homestead Restaurant, where a buffet dinner is served featuring wood-fired BBQ, fresh salads, seasonal vegetables, and locally sourced meats, along with a variety of desserts. The restaurant overlooks Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding alpine scenery, set within landscaped gardens. After dinner, a farm demonstration takes place showcasing farm dogs herding sheep and allowing visitors to meet farm animals. Time permitting, guests may take a walk through the lakeside gardens before boarding the vessel for the return cruise to Queenstown. The tour includes live commentary on board, providing information throughout the cruise and farm visit.
