What To Expect

Moke Lake

Your Glenorchy day trip begins with a tranquil detour to Moke Lake — a hidden gem just outside Queenstown. Surrounded by rolling hills and dramatic peaks, this quiet alpine lake offers stunning mirror-like reflections on calm days. It’s the perfect spot to stretch your legs, soak in the scenery, and enjoy a peaceful moment before heading deeper into the wilderness toward Glenorchy. Whether you're after a quick photo stop or a short walk by the water, we tailor the time here to suit your pace.

40 minutes • Admission Not Applicable

OPTIONAL: If you're up for a short adventure, Bob’s Cove is a fantastic optional stop. This easy 30–60 minute return walk leads you through native bush to a quiet bay with emerald waters and a jetty — perfect for photos or a quick dip in summer. For those wanting a little more, a short uphill track offers panoramic views over Lake Wakatipu. A refreshing and flexible stop, if time and interest allow.

    Jay was very friendly and so professional. An excellent driver on some fun roads! Such a relaxing experience not having to navigate or drive ourselves through breathtaking scenery. This trip was completely worth every cent for the spectacular scenery, local knowledge and professionalism of Jay. Thank you.

    Jay was amazing, he was patient, thoughtful and engaged my aged parents so well. He tailored the trip according to our needs and was mindful of time. He ensured we had a great time and also recommended a great little cafe on the way and we loved the pie. This was one of the most enjoyable experiences we all had in NZ, so glad I picked this tour, Jay is amazing.

    We had an excellent time driving to Glenorchy and Paradise with “V”. He took us to some areas we would not have seen. We have been driving through NZ and it was a great break for my husband. “V” shared several local tips. Only regret is we did not take this trip as soon as we got to Queenstown.

    What a fantastic private tour of Glenorchy and surrounds hosted by Vibhas! He was a great tour guide showing us all the hidden picturesque locations from Queenstown to Glenorchy and accomodating a request to drop into Ayrburn which was a magical place to grab afternoon tea and some great wine. Thanks for a memorable day Vibhas and we leave Queenstown knowing so much more about the local surrounds and history and wanting to come back for more! All the best to Travel n Go for continued success - highly recommend them for Queenstown tours!

  • Best NZ private tour company!

    This was absolutely the best experience and money well spent! I was promptly picked up right at the scheduled time, directly from my hotel by Jay, my tour guide and photographer extraordinaire. The SUV was nice and comfortable, the windows spotless, (really important when you want to take pictures constantly at every turn!), and most importantly, Jay was warm, friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. He took me to so many hidden, off the beaten path spots that I never would’ve found on my own. I started the day with a tour guide and ended it with a new friend! I couldn’t recommend this tour company highly enough! Don’t hesitate to book with Travelngo. I wish I’d found them sooner. I probably would have booked private tours with them for my entire NZ trip.
