A Spectacular Tour

An absolutely spectacular tour. We listened to the fascinating history of the Skippers road while Cal navigated us safely around blind corners and terrifying but breath taking views of the Shotover river far below. No-wonder rental vehicles aren’t allowed - it’s rated as one of the most difficult drives in the world. This is a must do Queenstown experience. We highly recommend Gold Rush Tours.

Great tour! Exactly what we wanted, interesting and beautiful landscapes with great stories. Not one of the average Queenstown tours, but something a bit different and being accompanied by a lovely golden retriever certainly added to the fun.

Fantastic trip

Very impressed with this trip. Great, well researched audio with clear, comfortable headset that really puts you into the history of the area. A really excellent, value for money trip. Thanks Cal:)
