Queenstown is full of famous spots… but the real ones know about Wye Creek 😏 It’s a bit of a climb (we won’t lie)… but you get waterfalls, rock pools, and views that feel way too good for how quiet it is. Worth the effort? Every single time. Tag the mate who’d complain on the way up but love it at the top.

Reminder: Queenstown’s little sister village Arrowtown will be in full Autumn mode in the next couple of weeks! If you’ve never experienced the @arrowtownautumnfestival , this year’s 40th Anniversary celebration will be well worth the trip! Here are our tips to help you make the most of it: 🍁 15th - 19th of April 2026 🍁 Use the Orbus to get around the region (with a BEE card!) 🍁 Don’t miss Saturday & Sunday in Arrowtown 🍁 Pie, Pint and Pinot is a MUST But here’s the thing - where you stay shapes the whole experience. Stay somewhere social. Somewhere you can step out the door and straight into the atmosphere… then come back to unwind, connect, and do it all again the next day. ✨ Experience Queenstown at its most vibrant ✨ Public transport <100m away to get around the region ✨ Walk to events, views, and everything in between This is your sign to do Autumn properly! 👉 Start planning your trip 👉 Tag who needs an Autumn break or save for later 👉 Book direct for best rates 🎥 @travelgrammer.ph

Everyone talks about Queenstown in winter… but they’re missing half of it ❄️ Here’s what most people get wrong: They stick to one ski field… They miss half the South Island… And they end up spending way more than they need to. So here’s a better way to do it: 👉 Mix up your mountains (they all hit different) 👉 Plan a few non-ski days (trust us… Milford Sound, hot pools, lake cruises 👀) 👉 Don’t sleep on the day trips — some of the best spots are a few hours out We pulled together the Ultimate Winter Guide, covering every major ski field in the Queenstown / Wanaka areas + South Island highlights, plus the stuff people usually only learn after they arrive. If you’re planning a trip, it’ll save you time, money… and a few rookie mistakes. Full guide’s in our bio if you want it 👀 📍Save this for later — you’ll thank yourself when you’re deep in planning mode. #queenstownnz #winterqueenstown #southislandnz #skiqueenstown #snowboardnz

Rainy day in Queenstown? Don’t cancel your plans — upgrade them. 🌧️ Because if there’s one place in Aotearoa that actually gets better in the rain… it’s Milford Sound. When the clouds roll in, the waterfalls go off — and we’re talking hundreds of them. Cascading down sheer cliffs, tumbling through misty rainforest, and making the whole place feel straight out of a fantasy film. 📍Just a day trip from Queenstown (fly, coach, or combo), and 1000% worth it — raincoat, camera, and jaw-dropping fjords included. 💡Pro tip: Ask our team at reception and we’ll help get you booked in at no extra cost. 🎥@ryanresatka #milfordsound #queenstowndaytrip #rainydayplans #waterfallchasing #fiordlandnz

🛍️ Wandering Arrowtown at golden hour? Yes please. With long summer evenings and picture-perfect streets, it’s no wonder this gem was crowned NZ’s most beautiful small town. Perfect for a lazy stroll, a shop, or a scoop (or two) of gelato. @arrowtownnz #arrowtownnz #southislandexploring #absolootadventures #romanticdaytrip
