One of New Zealand’s main tourism centres, Queenstown is located in the Otago region of the country’s South Island. Renowned as a major centre for extreme sports, Queenstown is the birthplace of the bungee jump and offers a number of other similar activities such as skydiving and mountain biking. Complimenting the adrenaline-fuelled activities on offer is some of the most spectacular scenery on the planet, with The Remarkables mountain range and Laker Wakatipu providing suitably jaw-dropping views.
