-- About this video --
Today’s Queenstown adventure is with Nomad Safaris where we’re taking a Queenstown 4x4 tour!
We get picked up straight outside our hostel and meet our local guide driving a 4x4 off roading vehicle. We hop in and hit the road alongside Lake Wakatipu and towards Arrowtown. We stop along the way at a Lord of the Rings filming location at the Kawarau River to get our Lord of the Rings in Queenstown dose, then head to a secret viewpoint overlooking Queenstown, Arrowtown and Lake Hayes. Here, we learn more about the history of Queenstown.
Then it’s off to the off roading 4x4 tracks of Queenstown on the way down to Arrowtown and the Arrow River. We have an awesome off roading experience driving across the river several times before stopping to do some gold panning in Arrowtown.
After gold prospecting in Arrowtown, we then drive to the Skippers Road in Skippers Canyon, said to be one of the most dangerous roads in the world. It’s also one of the most scenic in our opinion.
So what do you think of a tour with Nomad Safaris in Queenstown? Would you do this 4x4 tour in Queenstown? LUK in the comments.

Queenstown with Nomad Safaris | Lord Of The Rings Filming Locations | World Culture Network
Queenstown is an all-time favorite town amongst tourists for the range of activities that are there to explore. Apart from all the adventure activities that promise you an adrenaline rush, Queenstown is extremely gorgeous and surrounded by sights and towns that have a lot to offer visually.
Queenstown was well introduced to the world through Lord of the Rings and it is also where the famous Lord of the Rings trilogy was shot by Peter Jackson.
On a very special tour with Nomad Safaris, we took an exciting adventure to explore some of the most scenic spots in Queenstown like the Coronet Peak, Skippers Canyon, Arrow town, Kawarau River and more.
We also tried our hands at finding gold by the river, while experiencing a whole new side of New Zealand.
