Perfect day of adventure & indulgence
We had an excellent time on the zip & sip tour with our zip line guides (Ben & Ben) and our wine tour host, John. We loved the small wineries John took us to. He was very knowledgeable of the area and the wine we were tasting. He even took us to a surprise viewpoint during golden hour to capture sunset. I would recommend this package to any traveler who is looking for a morning of adventure and an afternoon of indulgence.
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for your fantastic review! We're delighted you enjoyed the Zip & Sip experience with us. We're especially glad you enjoyed the smaller wineries and that John could share his local knowledge along the way. And we're happy the surprise sunset stop added an extra special touch! We hope to welcome you back again in the future!

Zip and sip!!
We loved zip lining in the morning and then sipping wine in the afternoon. Our zip lining guides were two young men who were encouraging, helpful and lots of fun. Craig was our wine tour guide and he was great. Informative and humorous! We enjoyed meeting and talking to other people who were also on the tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you for the lovely review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the ziplining and wine combo. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to Craig and the Ziptrek team. Hope to see you again!

Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Queenstown.
How much does Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard cost?
+
Prices start at $235 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Queenstown usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard take?
+
Plan for about 6.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Queenstown is not rushed.
Is Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Queenstown, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Queenstown can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Queenstown and add a light layer if any part of the 6.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Queenstown within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Queenstown?
+
On Outty we rank every Queenstown experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Premium Milford Sound Small Group Tour & Cruise from Queenstown, Milford Sound Premium Small Group Tour & Cruise from Queenstown, Lord of the Rings Scenic Half Day Tour from Queenstown. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Queenstown?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Queenstown?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard?
+

+

What languages is Zip and Sip Tour - Ziplining, Visit 3 Wineries & Cheeseboard offered in?
+
