Welcome to Top Oz Tours' (formerly The Big Bus) YouTube channel! Queenstown on New Zealand's South Island is a destination exquisitely rich in natural beauty, and Lake Wakatipu is the headline act. There’s something magical about this tranquil waterway, and there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy it. One of our favourites is the historic TSS Earnslaw.

Real Journeys offers leisurely 90 minute cruises on this iconic steamship, which was launched in 1912 – the same year as the Titanic! Painstakingly restored to its original form, the Earnslaw is still a hand-fired steamship and has ferried plenty of famous passengers around the lake, including the Queen and Prince Philip, and former US president Bill Clinton.
