Million Dollar Queenstown Cruise — Local services in South Island

30 July 4PM cruise :D

If you're taking a nice walk around Queenstown and you see the sign for this cruise, it would be an absolute shame to not do it. Skipper Dan and his large crew of two, Abi and Brie were the best hosts you could ask for.

There was nothing fast paced about this trip, we were offered hot drinks and it was just a cosy experience I would pay for again, even if it was just to stand behind the wheel and pretend I knew what I was doing.

From beginning to end, booking the cruise we had a delightful and bubbly person. The people behind the counter booking booth were all very great with their banter.

We even got pictures with people who seemed to be affiliated with with same tour spots. Hi Anton! Thanks for being a great sport!

All this to say, it was the people that made this cruise worth it. The healthy banter and humour mixed in with helpful and insightful information made this a cruise you wouldn't want to miss.

A quick warning, if you choose not to use their blankets like I did, I would suggest you wear warm clothing during July. It can be a bit chilly and it took a few good hours to warm up to what seemed like an acceptable body heat.

Also sidenote: Dan's te reo māori pronunciation was pretty spot on and I can appreciate...

And then I thought that about the caption didn't care about the passenger safety , I am got very anger because when I turned the caption stop the other passenger got off the boat and waiting him fixed boat . Because we are Asian so racial discrimination and ridicule us? I think your company need to consider about passenger safety that it's...

The cruise is pretty much a real estate tour to the lakeside “million dollar” houses. The route takes you to Frankton- a residential area so don’t expect much from the nature side of things. The trout that you see is akin to “feeding the ducks” and this takes place before you board the boat. You are not guaranteed to see anymore wildlife further on.

You can see these lakeside houses coming from the Airport in your car and most of the wharf and mountains can be seen from the marina or other activities such as the Gondola.

Captain seems to have some deep seeded anti-overseas tourist sentiment. Won’t say more but dude, don’t try to “beef up” the lack of experience with personal opinions especially in this COVID climate. You don’t speak for all of...
