Queenstown – World’s Top Outdoor Destination
Submitted by GregR on May 6, 2010 7 Comments
Trip Advisor has released their annual list of World’s top destinations and Queenstown and Rotorua have both made the list as must-see locales. Queenstown took the cake for top outdoor destination ahead of some stiff competition from Whistler British Columbia, Rocky Mountain Colorado, Masai Mara Kenya and Banff Alberta.

It would be wonderful to spend a weekend in such a picturesque place.
Anna, you need more than a weekend, perhaps a lifetime
Queenstown has always been synonymous with adventure sports. With some of the world’s best fly fishing, New Zealand has always been a favourite destination for fishing enthusiasts. It is a much deserved award for Queenstown.
Go Queenstown !!!
Also Queenstown Festival is coming up soon.
Score! What an achievement. I went down to Queenstown last month, and the award is well deserved
