What's interesting about the Queenstown Tour Raiders?

Does anyone think it's strange to say Queenstown? Does anyone else want to know if there is a Kings Town? In fact, Queenstown does exist. There is always a place on this earth that you have never seen before, and it is a beautiful place.

Accommodation in Queenstown Queenstown is very popular in the South Island of New Zealand. Generally speaking, accommodation in Queenstown is mainly concentrated in the city center and Lake Wakatip. There are many star-rated hotels in the city center.

There are many star-rated hotels in the city. The cost-effective backpacker hotel is about 30-60 NZD a night, and the average budget hotel is about 150 NZD a night, so the transportation is convenient. The resorts near Lake Wakatip are more suitable for people in go on road trip. Most hotels and resorts in this area have beautiful lake views, and the price is basically around 200 New Zealand dollars. It's a little more expensive than NZ $350, and you can live in a better room with a lake view.

Spring (September-165438+1October) and autumn (March-May) in Queenstown are the most suitable stages for outdoor activities. Since Queenstown is also suitable for skiing and other winter sports, its tourism peak period is from the end of February to the following year.

In mid-June, if you visit during this period, you'd better book a room in advance.

Compared with most parts of New Zealand, Queenstown is sparsely populated, and there are many restaurants in Queenstown that can definitely satisfy your appetite. New Zealand salmon, mussels, scallops, crayfish, blue cod and local beef, mutton and venison are all special foods that will not disappoint the tasters. Food stalls and coffee shops near the lake also have people-friendly foods, such as super hamburgers, fish and chips, handmade chocolates and so on. Don't miss it. Although Queenstown is a small town with little nightlife, there are still bars for night cats to kill time, especially in skiing season.

BeachSt and TheMall, there are many restaurants and bars waiting for you to explore.

Queenstown Shopping Queenstown is the best shopping city in New Zealand. Friends who choose to go out to go on road trip will suddenly feel that they have returned to the city. The sheepskin products, jewelry, sweaters and opossum skin products here are very good and cheap. But general boutiques are not allowed to bargain. If you want something cheap, you have to wait until the extraordinary market and creative market on weekends. It is not only a paradise for shopping, but also a good place to learn more about the local culture of New Zealand.

South Island Self-driving Route Recommendation Everyone has different needs for scenic spots and will plan different South Island self-driving routes in New Zealand. But don't detour, save time, and in a more classic way, I suggest that friends who drive South Island take the following route:

Christchurch-Kaikula (if there is enough time)-Fox Glacier-Wanaka-Queenstown-Dunedin-Tikapo-Christchurch.

Let's start with Christchurch. If you have enough time, you can go to Kaikula, which takes about 2.5 hours by car. Kaikula is basically whale watching or sea fishing. If there is not enough time, it is recommended to take the Fox directly from Christchurch. It takes about 5-6 hours to drive from Christchurch to Forks. It is best for four people to drive in a car in turn. If it's too long, you can stay in Hokiti for one night, watch the sunset and take the firefly trail (very short). Go to the glacier the next day (if you want to hike on the glacier, you can also hike on the glacier that day and soak in the hot springs at night). On the third day, I went to Wanaka. Wanaka is close to Queenstown. I'll go to Wanaka first, and then go to Queenstown without detouring. Go to Queenstown on the fourth and fifth days, Dunedin on the sixth day or go directly to Mount Cook, then go to Tikapo and return to Christchurch. The number of days here can be increased according to your requirements. This route is smoother. Except for the first day, it took a little longer to drive to the glacier, and others took about 3 or 4 hours by car. Or you can walk backwards, Christchurch-Tikapo-Mount Cook-Dunedin/Queenstown-Queenstown-Wanaka-Fox Glacier-Christchurch. Because New Zealand drives with the right rudder and the left rudder, when driving on the west coast, the sea is on the left, so it is more convenient to pull over if you want to take pictures.
