Destination Profile

Prepare the adrenaline glands, folks – Queenstown is the adventure capital of the world. Everything from high-octane speedboats to skydiving descents to downhill luging to wild swimming is on the menu here. It was where the thrill-seeking AJ Hackett put bungee jumping on the map back in 1988. And it's based in a great bowl of the Southern Alps, with ski fields draped over the high Remarkables, old gold-mining villages peppered around, and more hiking trails than you can shake a Kiwi at (but definitely don't do that!). Multiple nonstop departures go daily from cities as diverse as Melbourne, Gold Coast, Sydney and Brisbane. That means finding a top deal on cheap flights to Queenstown from Australia should never be impossible.
