★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 204 reviews · from $190Top rated

A small-group 4WD half-day from Queenstown into Skippers Canyon for views, gold-mining history, and hands-on gold panning at Deep Creek.

“The weather was horrible but the tour guide made it a fantastic time. Jenny was very informative, friendly, and knowledgeable and fun. Because of the bad weather and slips on Skipper's Canyon Road we could only drive part of it. Jenny made up for it with alternate routes. It was a great experience.”
