Family Fun on a Rainy Day

Hit a bad weather day? Not to worry, Queenstown has plenty of indoor activities to keep the family entertained. Here’s a list to get you started…

1. Explore the cafes and restaurants. Queenstown’s food scene packs a bite, literally! Get your coffee fix (or a hot chocolate for the kids!) and enjoy lunch at one of Queenstown 150 eateries.
