Highlights

  • Scenic cruise on board the vintage TSS Earnslaw
  • A guided walking tour of the farmyard

Your experience begins with a magical cruise across Lake Wakatipu aboard the TSS Earnslaw, a vintage steamship launched in 1912 and rich in local pioneering history.

Soak up the spectacular views with a wine or beer from our bar, visit the mini-museum or check out the action in the engine room as we cruise towards Walter Peak.

Upon disembarking, you will be greeted by our rural host who will take you on a fascinating guided tour of this historic farm.

On this interactive farming experience, you'll be able to see a sheep shearing demonstration and watch farm dogs round up sheep from the paddocks.

Visit the holding pens and feed the farm animals before enjoying freshly baked afternoon tea in a delightfully rustic old wool shed.

A unique and interactive experience that will enable you to immerse yourself into rural New Zealand life.

너무 좋은경험이었어요

퀸스타운 도착하고 언슬로호 기대했는데 기대보다 더 좋았어요. 티타임디저트가 생각보다 별로고 가격도 비쌌지만 아이들이 너무 좋아한 동물농장체험은 잊지못할 추억이되었네요. 양털깎이, 양몰이개는 구경은 잘했지만 설명이 넘 길긴해요. 다음에 엄마모시고 한번 더 가고싶어요.

언슬오우호와 월터픽 농장 후기

월터픽 농장은 솔직히 갈 필요가 없어요. 그냥 언슬로우호에 앉아서 차를 마시고 피아노 연주를 들으며 경치를 감사하는게 좋습니다.

Great experience

We booked this as another tour guide told us it was awesome and it was. The boat ride over to the farm was nice, we got cold drinks and enjoyed the scenic views. The afternoon tea at the farm was good with sweet and savory food and unlimited coffee, tea and water. As for the farm tour, our guide Ashley was amazing and told us lots of interesting facts. Sadly, there were lots of other people who didn't listen to her and started feeding and touching the animals that were not supposed to be fed or touched multiple times, even after she asked them repeatedly not to do that. It got quite annoying for the other people who really wanted to enjoy the trip. After the tour we got to see a lamb sheering and watched Mist round up some sheep on a hill. It was super interesting and fascinating to see. All in all the trip was nice and we would recommend it!
