About Scenic Tours

Scenic Tours passengers are treated as individuals with varying interests. Scenic Tours appreciate you enjoy the ease, camaraderie and security of travelling as a group, but don't always want to do everything together. With Scenic FreeChoice Inclusions, each passenger is given the flexibility to choose which activity they would like to experience, at no extra cost! In major locations, an exciting selection of active or gentle activities are offered. In Queenstown for example, you can choose from either a jet boat adventure, boutique wineries tour, guided tour of skippers canyon, indulgent treatment, picnic hamper or a tour of Queenstown's finest gardens. The tours are carefully planned to allow just the right amount of free leisure time for relaxation, shopping or exploration. In addition these exciting FreeChoice Inclusions are included.
 
Scenic Tours choose hotels centrally located or in a unique position to enhance your experience of that region. The hotels are among the best in New Zealand, and do not compromise on luxuries.

In Queenstown you can either cruise across Lake Wakatipu aboard a vintage steamship arriving at Walter Peak Station for an elegant dining experience, or travel via a Gondola to the Skyline Restaurant with stunning views, or dine downtown at one of Queenstown's finest restaurants.
