Authentic Kiwi luxury at Eichardt’s

We have partnered with Over The Top Helicopters to couple an unforgettable, high-flying Kiwi-esque experience with the most luxurious stay.

A trip to Queenstown is incomplete without a taste of classic kiwi tradition:  Barbecue and Pavlova. Add in a scenic Heli-flight over the Alps and three-nights’ accommodation at Eichardt’s Private Hotel, and you have yourself the most comprehensive Queenstown experience. 

You will quickly become attuned to the incredible scenery of Queenstown from your stylish suites, located on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. Taken care of are all your fine dining pursuits, with daily a la carte breakfast and three-course dinner being dished out at one of our bespoke venues: The Grille, Eichardt’s Bar or No.5 Church Lane. 

Once comfortable and settled in, you can then prepare for lift-off on one of the most awe-inspiring scenic flights in New Zealand. You will be greeted by the pilot at the hangar, before boarding this top of range Airbus Helicopter. What follows is 2–hours of serenity, starting with gorgeous shots over Lake Wakatipu before immersing yourself in the stillness of the Alps. 

Your first taste of kiwi tradition arises when you land at the iconic High-Country station for a kiwi style barbecue and inspection of the unique cottage built during the gold mining era. The second landing comes at 1978 meters above sea-level on the Cecil Peak where you get to partake in the emblematic ‘Pavlova On The Peak’ and mulled wine.

Revitalize that inner kiwi by catching the peak of experiences in ultimate luxury with both ground level and alpine views of Queenstown’s most iconic destinations. Not many can say they enjoyed the most classic kiwi dessert from a mountain peak.
