Highly recommended - I recently took a bus tour to Glenorchy, and it was just amazing. The guide, Dave, was exceptional—his knowledge of the area’s history, wildlife, and natural wonders really brought the tour to life. His engaging storytelling made the journey even more enjoyable. The bus itself was incredibly comfortable, with plenty of space to relax and take in the breathtaking scenery along the way. As for Glenorchy itself, I had read some reviews prior the trip that claimed there wasn’t much to do, but I found the tour well-structured and the stops thoughtfully planned. We had just the right amount of time to explore the village, enjoy the stunning views, and take in some of the area’s key sights without feeling rushed. Highly recommended!

Highly Recommend Glenorchy half day tour. - The half day trip was stunning with amazing scenery along the way culminating with the quaint village of Glenorchy. Our trip only had 3 people, making it very relaxed and very informative. We were very lucky to see snow capped mountains along the way and had 2 hours to explore the village and go for a walk.

No frills tour to Glenorchy - This is a no frills tour to Glenorchy with no afternoon tea like the other tours. During the scenic drive, you will be provided with headset to listen to the commentary on the places of interest. There was ample time to explore Glenorchy and take a short walk along the Glenorchy walkway. Dave is a friendly driver and he shared much insight about the lifestyle of kiwis. Being the only participant, I was also glad that the tour was not cancelled. Being a non LOTR fan, this no frills tour worked for me.

Great tour! - Great for a half-day excursion from Queenstown, NZ. You not only get to see the quirky town of Glenorchy, but you also get some spectacular views along the lake.

Stunning Scenery - The most beautiful drive from Queenstown to Glenorchy and what a cute little place Glenorchy is with a simply fabulous gallery Franks Corner for some beautiful locally made artworks, jewellery, craft and handbags. Well worth a visit for stunning scenery everywhere

It was a wonderful place to visit again! - This was my first time here, but I was very satisfied to be able to enjoy the wonderful scenery! There weren't too many tourists, so I was able to enjoy the great outdoors at my own pace ^ ^ GLENORCHY has great shops and ice cream shops. On the bus tour, you can listen to the audio guide in addition to the driver's guidance. Thanks for driving! Stave! He is a great driver!
