Time Tripper

Queenstown Central, Queenstown



Time Tripper takes you back to the beginning on a journey through time and legend, where you can experience 90 million years in just 30 minutes!

Travel back to a time when dinosaurs roamed the earth, learn about how Lake Wakatipu was carved out by a giant glacier and experience the adventure activities you can do in Queenstown, all from the comfort of your seat.

Head down to the Main Town Pier to explore Queenstown before time.

- Time Tripper was created by internationally recognised graphics innovators Animation Research, and exhibition designers Art of Fact Limited
- The story is narrated by world famous New Zealand actor Temuera Morrison.
- Time Tripper is the only place in Queenstown that visually tells the legend of Lake Wakatipu
- The Underwater Observatory has been transformed into a bespoke theatre, giving the viewer the feeling of being inside a time machine, complete with black light and bass shakers installed under each seat.
