Cruise Lake Wakatipu on the TSS Earnslaw, visit Walter Peak Farm, meet sheep and cattle, watch sheepdogs, and enjoy afternoon tea.

“Booked at 11.30am for a 1pm departure. Other websites had no availability. Really good way to spend a few hours. Not too long either kids loved farm tour and patting / hand feeding baby animals. Farm show pretty basic but good if no previous exposure to rural life. Tour not too long and good way to see the lake from the boat. Little less Adrenalin.”
