Queenstown Boat Charters

Queenstown Boat Charters offers private boat charters and lake transfers across Lake Wakatipu for groups of 10 to 40 passengers. Services include scenic sightseeing cruises, private transfers to luxury lodges and remote hiking trails, and specialised charters for film work and photography. Operating year-round on demand with no set timetable, the company provides tailored experiences designed around your group's interests, schedule and budget.

The fleet includes four vessels suited to different group sizes and occasions: the Wainui (10 passengers), Takara (22 passengers), Sass (25 passengers), and Tina (40 passengers). All boats are surveyed for Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding rivers. The skipper has over 40 years of experience on the lake and offers local knowledge of remote bays, hidden beaches and mountain views.

Services include scenic cruising by the hour, conference and event charters, bike and hike drop-offs to Mt Nicholas Station and Walter Peak, and hunting and fishing trips to remote spots accessible only by water.
