Skippers Canyon
Just as the early miners did in the 1860s, you’ll set off from Queenstown’s town centre, travel through the stunning Queenstown Gorge (Blow Ho Gully), and deep into the heart of Skippers Canyon. Along the way, our GPS-activated stories, (professionally narrated by voice actors and available in Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish), will bring the region’s goldrush history to life — giving you all the insights and stories you could want, while your expert Driver/Guide focuses on navigating the dramatic alpine road ahead. Travelling with children, or just in the mood to enjoy the views in peace? No problem — we offer multiple onboard audio channels, including three radio stations and two dedicated children’s storytelling tracks, so there’s something for everyone. The full experience lasts between 3 and 4 hours, with plenty of photo stops along the way.
We finish the tour at Gantley’s Tavern, a historic goldmining pub dating back over 160 years, where you can enjoy either a hot drink, or a beer/wine — all included in the price, before dropping you off back at your original pickup point.

It was an adventurous, awesome experience with THE GOLDRUSH TOUR. Today's 3.5 hour-long trip in sunny weather, including hop-on hop-off at lookout points with historic photos and guided information, made it worth it.

It was a great half-day trip if you are not sure what to do in queenstown and dont have access to cars. The guide was pre-recorded, and Cal (the driver, owner) talks more details when we stop.

My family and I really enjoyed the tour as we were not rushed and got to enjoy the beautiful views. It is a very informative tour as there were multilingual guides explaining the story behind each scenery. Skippers canyon is definitely a great place to explore and would definitely recommend taking the tour with Cal which makes the trip much easier and comfortable.

This tour was absolutely amazing! So exciting and interesting at the same time. We are so glad we decided to go and would recommend this experience to anyone. Callum is clearly passionate and knowledgeable about Queenstown history and the running commentary (in your first language if you prefer) was superb.

An excellent tour with multi language translations. The commentary is interesting and describes the hardships and stories of the gold miners and early settlers. The road itself is a fantastic experience! Cal and his dog pal Asta were very welcoming. The final touch is the beer tasting and optional beverages at the historic Gantleys tavern. A wonderful afternoon, thank you!
