Step aboard the historic TSS Earnslaw for a quintessential Kiwi experience on Lake Wakatipu and in the high country of Walter Peak. Complete with a delicious gourmet barbecue lunch and a look at New Zealand's farming life. Take in breathtaking views over the secluded tranquil waters of the lake whilst enjoying a drink or snack from the bar onboard.

Your voyage begins with a cruise aboard a century-old steamship, which carries you across the lake from Queenstown. Once you arrive at Walter Peak, relax on the lakeside terrace of the Colonel's Homestead Restaurant and savor the tantalizing aromas as the chef gets some great local produce sizzling away on the grill. The buffet includes salads, vegetables, and succulent local meats cooked on the wood-fired BBQ. There is a wide range of delicious desserts on offer, including a vast array of fresh bread and cheese. Overlooking Lake Whakatipu and Queenstown's alpine scenery, the Colonel’s Homestead at Walter Peak High Country Farm is the perfect place to spend a few hours. Its colonial architecture and sweeping grounds evoke the elegance of a bygone era.

After your lunch, an entertaining farm show the whole family will enjoy is also included. Watch the farm dogs in action with a sheep-herding demonstration and say hello to the other farm animals. If there is time remaining, explore the beautiful lakeside gardens before re-boarding the vintage steamship for the return trip to Queenstown.
