I love ENZ, and have booked a lot through them for Queenstown trips. This time I'd booked onto a different tour - the ENZ team got in touch to say it might not go ahead if there weren't sufficient numbers. They found me an alternative, sorted out payments, gave me a discount, arranged it all very late in the day and made sure I had all the arrangements to hand. It was one of the very best trips I've done in QT (Nomad LOTR Glenorchie trip, in 4WD with Jenny) and I'd have missed out on it if I hadn't arranged it through ENZ. Thanks, EQT team!

Product rating:

Absolutely brilliant. Fantastic guide/driver with so much background knowledge about film locations, landscapes and local info. Went off track with the 4WD to wind up in the most breathtaking places, and enjoyed getting to know my fellow passengers. Outstanding.

Rated 4 stars because they were very helpful on line but when they made an error i had to let them know they booked me in on the wrong day. i took a screen dump so i could prove it. Then an email was sent that it was changed and we turned up, we were the only ones there and the tour was cancelled. We had to call the tour company and they told us they didn't have a booking for us.

Product rating:

Our tour guide was lovely and very knowledgeable. We did think though maybe there was a touch too much talking... Overall a lovely tour, they look out for your safety as well. A negative was the picnic food supplied by the pub in Glenorchy, a piece of bread wrapped around melted cheese. that was awful. some kiwi fruit pieces and a small sweet. overall, i would of preferred to buy my own food at the food rather than that. Another small negative was a family from the US when we were looking at the beautiful sheep and angus cows and then the female stated 'they make nice hamburgers'. i think people have to be mindful that some of us are animal lovers and we prefer to look at the animals and not think of them as food. i was not impressed at all by that comment.

I would recommend buying this tour, I give 5 star for our tour guide Andy for so much knowledge not only for that tour but but the whole New Zealand, I didn’t know so much about that country but after the tour, it gave me a lot of information. It was an awesome experience overall.

I purchase a ticket which was on special, but it’s a little pricey for the regular price.

Hi there, pick up is from outside the Station Building which is on the corner of Shotover and Camp Street. This is just a short walk from Creeksyde Motel.
