Cruising beautiful Lake Wakatipu aboard Queenstown’s iconic steamship - the TSS Earnslaw is undoubtedly one of Queenstown’s must-do activities.

Like stepping into a postcard, you’ll be spellbound by the magic and grandeur of the “Lady of the Lake” as she showcases the best of Queenstown’s stunning scenic beauty.

Bootsfahrt mit einem alten Dampfer

An etwas bewölkten Tagen ist es eine nette Tour.

TSS Earnslaw

We’ve been to Queenstown many times and we always take a trip on the TSS Earnslaw - whatever the weather it’s always stunning!

Great Experience and well worth doing

Great Experience and well worth doing, just being able to walk around the boat and see the steam engine in action and the poor man shoveling the coal into the burner in that heat what a job to have, plus the museum with great photos and history enfo aboard, it is something I'll always remember and suggest people do going there. Only bummer was when getting to the historic house we didn't know about being able to stay and have a BBQ buffet at the house if had purchased the ticket for it. not sure if was noted on the bookme sight or i missed it but still cant find a option for purchase on here with meal, but I would still differently do again if go back to Queenstown
