I like the views but the place was heaving. It's very steep! We didn't do the luge or hang about up there for very long, it was very crowded.

It was highly recommended a must do list in Queenstown, we went there early morning before the crowd, it was pretty fast and once you were in the gondola, the stunning view is right in front of you. We did a walk around the hill, good weather and the view to the Queenstown and the lake just stunning. There was... More

Thank you for the opportunity to go on the Gondola & Luge ride with Orphans Aid International. Best place to see the fantastic view of Queenstown and a real buzz going on the luge.

Great views of the city once you brave the Gondola ride (if you are scared of heights, like me!!) Food at the café was excellent and catered well for gluten free options

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
