Beautiful views from the observation deck. Just FYI...there is no designated parking for Skyline Queenstown. There are some public and private parking available with walking distance, but they fill up quickly (you need a mobile phone to pay for the parking). Our tickets were for the Gondola plus 3 Luge rides. To get to the Luge Entrance from the Skyline Top Terminal, you had to walk through a maze of stairs and planks to get there. Which also meant you had to climb the stairs to get back to the Top Terminal to take the Gondola back down to the Base Terminals. Halfway down, we realized that we would probably not be able to climb all the stairs back up. So, we turned around and headed back to the Top Terminal. We asked about a refund on the Luge portion of our ticket, but no one could do a refund, since we purchased the tickets online.

Just the 2 of us for breakfast. Not much on the menu but drinks were great. Tea and coffee. View was amazing from both the gondola and viewing platform

Skyline Queenstown offers breathtaking views of the Remarkables, which were the highlight of our visit. The steep Gondola ride and viewing platform provided stunning perspectives of the landscape. However, the food was overpriced and average, which was a bit disappointing. Having experienced the luge in Rotorua’s Skyline, this one felt a bit anticlimactic. We didn’t get to try the paragliding or bungee jumping, which seem to be the unique attractions here compared to Rotorua’s swing chair. Overall, it’s a bucket list activity in Queenstown, but I’d rate it 3.5 stars.

Unlimited rides for the day with family - so much fun. Food in cafe is reasonably priced and very nice. Carpark not open yet so parking was tricky.

The view from the top was spectacular. We enjoyed ludge ride very much. It was worth visiting, we spent almost half day there to chill.

The views were lovely but the food in the restaurant was terrible. I was so disappointed having been here 8years ago I was looking forward to the fantastic experience I had back then. I think the restaurant has changed hands because the food was really below standard especially for the price.

Excellent view and breathtaking and also beautiful weather when we went there for the day. First time for my sister and my boyfriend to go up on the gondola and first time for my sister to play the luge. We're all had so much fun time. Would like to go there again in the future.

Definitely a highlight of the trip. Gondola is loads of fun, only a short walk from the city to the base (maybe 500m). Luge is loads of fun for all ages and accessed on a little chair lift. Dinner was fantastic, great atmosphere and delicious good quality food. Would definitely go again!

I was not expecting the awesome experience - not only is the ride beautiful - the bar and food up top was excellent! Try the Wakitupi Whisper - lavender martini - worth the trip alone!

View is very nice. But kids did 3 hour kea tour..it had too much waiting period.we took photographs through them.but all were of poor quality. Dnt think it was value for money

The view might be pretty on a clear day, but that’s where it ends. Very expensive to simply end up in the middle of a construction zone with only a small viewing deck. It’s great that they are sinking the $$ into upgrades, but consideration should be given to a discounted rate while it’s undergoing renovations. The cafe is lacklustre, the gift-shop is crammed and if you need to access the luge be prepared to climb lots of scaffolding stairs. We enjoyed the gondola ride, but for $59/adult just for the gondola our money would’ve been better spent on other attractions in Queenstown. No doubt when the upgrades are finished it will likely be great, but there wasn’t even a smile to be found on a single staff member.

Way too expensive. $80pp+ for a chair lift ride and a few runs on a very average luge. Not worth the hype. Not to mention the entire thing is currently a giant construction site. If you fancy a clamber over some wet scaffolding, a walk up a very steep temporary path and an aerial view of a logging coupe this one’s for you! My advice, save your money! Most disappointing part of the day was watching a mum attempting to negotiate the scaffolding with a pram… don’t worry plenty of paying customers to help…. No staff in sight though. The staff we did encounter could literally not have been less interested in being at work. How this is the #1 tourist attraction in Queenstown is completely beyond me.

Skyline Queenstown's Gondola-assisted uplift service is awesome! The team loaded my bike like pros, and the Gondola ride up gave us epic views. At the top, my bike was ready, and it was all smooth sailing. Definitely recommend it!

Undeniable Views! $59 is expensive for a ski lift ride. When you get to top there are more tourist Money Grab opportunities. Unless you are eating, drinking , riding luge, or ½ mile uphill walk path, This is a 1/2-hour return trip. Once on top there is: 1/2 mile hiking trail with different views of basin below 2-3 tracks to ride "luge" (NOT included in the $59 gondola ride up) Downhill bike tracks (if you are a biker) Buffet Restaurant ($80 Per Person) Tourist triket shops Place to purchase drinks There is ton of construction on top as of May '24 which seriously detracts from the views There is a $59 90 min boat cruise of harbor which is monies much better spent on Queenstown experience.

We rode the gondola up past construction, loud and mars the view. Then we got to the top to see any other experiences would be much money to shell out. Drank water in the cafe, paced the modest balcony to watch the ridiculous luge (worse than an amusement park ride), and finally came back down feeling like that was a waste. There are so many free, beautiful scenic viewpoints why pay for this?
