Queenstown with its already famous beauty takes the time to flaunt her priceless collection of gardens to its visitors who in turn are excellently entertained with an intimate and personalized tour. In fact the experience leaves the visitors with a strong desire to enter into this fine and gratifying hobby of gardening which is not surprising after hearing the descriptive dialogues of the gardeners who gush about their treasures with ever bubbling enthusiasm.
The garden tour in Queenstown provides the travellers an opportunity to appreciate the native beauty of the rural gardens belonging to the residents and is every bit as enchanting as it claims to be. It offers to take you through three private gardens where the home owners will personally escort you around to their treasures and elaborate on their favourite topic of gardening and plant life. The nature of the plantation varies with the season and the variety of the gardens available can be quite confusing to a beginner. The array of gardens includes the demure English Gardens, ravishing Orchard and Vegetable garden or the simple and unpretentious cottage gardens. In addition the gardens also possess natural water features which contrast well with the prim and meticulously tended plantation.
The gardens are the centre point in an alluring backdrop of ravishing scenery of lakes and a river upon which an old but picturesque wooden bridge is perched. After strolling though the gardens at leisure, the crowd can enjoy some invigorating morning tea in one of the gardens. It is a great way to get acquainted with the ‘Kiwi way of life’ and the tour also takes you through the neighbouring village of Arrowhead which is a gold mining village.
Another excellent way to know the Kiwis and their lifestyle is to find yourself a fabulous Queenstown resort that will keep you comfortable and content with superb services and gracious hospitality. Copthorne Hotel & Resort Queenstown Lakefront enjoys a spectacular view over the Lake Wakatipu and is conveniently located close to the town’s central entertainment and shopping hub. It is an excellent choice for someone looking for Queenstown ski resorts to reside in during their stay in this beautiful region of New Zealand.
