Queenstown is an alpine resort on the South Island of New Zealand, a popular destination for many years attracting the young lively adventure seeking crowd, an international appeal has ensured that Queenstown is cosmopolitan and vibrant, soaking up the culture that travellers bring.
Although beautiful there is no doubt that this is the destination for activity lovers and thrill seekers who wish to cram a lifetime of fun into a few short weeks.
Although evidence has been found of a previous Maori settlement the explosion in history of this prosperous town really begins in the mid 1800’s when the first gold was discovered along the banks of the Shotover River, the history may be fairly recent but the influx of wealth has ensured that this town has never been anything less than perfectly formed.
The clean but no less bright lights of Queenstown make this a holiday destination never to be forgotten.
