It was an exciting experience - one we will not forget....& the buffet meal was also good quality. There is plenty to do there - in addition to the gondola.

The view is breath taking seeing all of queenstown and surrounding snow covered mountains. The gondola ride is great as wel as the luging. The restaurant though is very disappointing, the buffet when we were there was not nice at all but the views do make up for it.

I really enjoyed my time up the Skyline Gondola and Luge recently. I went on a work trip, and had never been before. I couldn't believe just how stunning the views were, and absolutely loved the speed and excitement of the Luge! Great fun - makes you feel like a kid again!

However there is nothing much to do. Loved the ride in the gondola but did not get to take the luge as we're late.

Great ride up on the gondola and reasonably priced. Plenty to do when you get up on the mountain for adults and children. The views all over Queenstown were fantastic. If you are prepared to walk to the very top to see the paragliders take off it is really worthwhile. Also good to go down to see them land near... More

We visited Queenstown 40 years ago and the view from the top is still as good as it was then. It is a pity that Queenstown itself has grown into a tourist mecca (trap ??) rather than the lovely town it once was. The view is fabulous looking over the town and the lake. The skyline gondola is very busy... More

Spectacular view of the Remarkables and the whole of Queenstown from the top. However the gondolas ride prices are a bit too expensive. Luge was fun for any age though.

Definitely overpriced but the view is fantastic. Also you can head up Ben Lomond - if you do, bring hiking boots as it was icy.

A fun thing for everyone, amazing views, the gondola ride up to the luge has the best views. There is a viewing deck , it's fun for family and a great way to spend a day in queenstown.

we were lucky enough to be in Queenstown on a lovely sunny day, the steep climb is quite alarming for someone scared of heights (like me), but the views are so good you'll quickly be distracted and there's lots to see/watch at the top. Loved it. If I was fitter I would have loved to go down one of the... More
