A lovely tour

I really enjoyed the experience I got on this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable about the area. Each of the stops we made were nice and we were never rushed. The scenery was beautiful and the trail rides were very fun. I felt very safe the entire time, even when driving down a mountain with sheer drops. I would highly recommend this excursion as a fun way to see the stunning landscapes around Queenstown.
