    started this walk at 5am on a beautiful autumn day in QT. Saw the milky way and Mt Cook with the naked eye. One of the best views I have ever seen from the top. I started from Nomads and it took me roughly 3.5 hours including breaks to get to the top, however my moving time was about 2 hours to the top. It gets steep once you get to the saddle and turn left but it is worth it. A must do for hikers and casuals in Queenstown

    Changes needed!
    Disappointing to visit this wonderland after so many good reviews.
    No Smoking signs everywhere, but it appears vaping is ok !.! Multiple people vaping near the restaurant….staff not overly concerned either after being informed, as they continued to vape.!!!
    Food…..ugh. Heart attacks everywhere, no fruit, fried food galore, no sandwich’s.
    Surely you can do better? ?
    The skiing was amazing, good runs, very popular at the weekends.
    Queenstown is so picturesque, well worth a visit.

    The workers were so lovely and nice and even though I’m horrified of heights they helped me conquer my fears.

    Awesome attraction, really scary and fun at the same time. Me and my wife were alone and it was a thrill!

    I didn't think I would be able to hit the side of a barn but with Blake's tuition I scored 17/20. Blake ensured everyone succeeded. His ability to engage the group from pick up to drop off made for a fun adventure. Nothing was too much trouble, he encouraged, cajoled and celebrated with us all. And what a majestic location. It is worth going to Break One just for the view. Such fun!

    My partner and I absolutely loved this experience and 100% would recommend it to anyone!! They provided refreshments, glasses, a speaker, towels and robs, and more. We were able to adjust the temperature as cool or warm as we wanted, and it was super simple. Really nicely kept, easy instructions, and easy to locate. Can’t wait to go back on our next trip to Queenstown.
    Thanks for the great experience, John!

    We had a group of 18 people, including kids and adults. It was a lot of fun, I didn’t realise how much I would love these activities. The combat archery brought out our competitive side 😂 Never seen human foosball like this before, great fun. Thank you

    Booked with bus tour and made the experience super streamlined. From the moment we got there the lovely Marissa guided us everywhere and told us where and when to go, and made it super smooth and stress free. Would definitely jump again, and MAKE SURE TO GET THE PHOTOS! Super worth it- they WILL take better videos and photos than you.
