Start your evening cruising along the waters of Lake Wakatipu from Queenstown aboard either the iconic vintage TSS Earnslaw steamship or the sleek Spirit of Queenstown.

Step inside the charming lakeside Colonel’s Homestead Restaurant, where the enticing scent of wood-fired BBQ fills the air. Our chefs prepare a mouthwatering spread using the finest local ingredients, featuring a generous buffet of crisp salads, seasonal vegetables, and tender cuts of locally sourced meat. Don't forget the selection of desserts! With panoramic views of Lake Whakatipu and Queenstown’s alpine backdrop, the Colonel’s Homestead offers an idyllic setting steeped in colonial charm and surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds.

Your visit also includes a lively farm demonstration. Watch skilled farm dogs expertly herd sheep and get up close with friendly farm animals. If time allows, take a peaceful stroll through the lakeside gardens before boarding the vessel for your scenic return cruise to Queenstown.

    Usually I don't have high expectations of cruise & dinner. But this dinner was not on board but at a restaurant! The dinner spread was just fabulous & delicious. Really spoilt for choice. Highly recommended for this offering and value for money.

  • Just do it!

    Walter Peak bbq dinner was great. We had the RealNZ ferry across which was a pleasant journey, then bbq dinner followed by the farm show, then back on ferry at the end of night. Food was hot, plentiful and a large variety to choose from. If you are after photos of your experience it maybe in the dark so not many opportunities to be had especially in the colder months.

    Well worth it. Well organised, food was amazing. Rug up as the farm show is in the open and it’s freezing - we had been well prepared. We did the Sunset cruise - scenery was spectacular on the way. Don’t eat beforehand!
