Bus and Coach The OrBus Service provided by Ritchies runs frequently to surrounding suburbs and points of interest. The council has introduced the OrBus low fare bus service to ease traffic troubles with cars and reduce the impact that private transport has on the environment.

The buses run frequently from 6.00am until late, seven days a week with four return routes: 

- Fernhill to Remarkables Park - every 15 minutes until midnight
- Arrowtown to Arthurs Point (via Frankton) - half-hourly on peak and hourly off-peak, until 10pm
- Kelvin Heights to Frankton Flats - hourly through until 10pm
- Lake Hayes Estate to Jacks Point - half-hourly on peak and hourly off-peak, until 10pm

The main bus stop is on Camp Street, across from the Village Green area.  There are plenty of bus stops along the routes with a number situated outside accommodation for added convenience.

Queenstown Airport Buses:

The buses run to and from Queenstown Airport on a regular basis from 6.00am until midnight. From the airport, catch the bus from the bus stop across from the  terminal building exit.  

Bus Fares:

You can travel anywhere within the Queentown bus network for just $2 with a GoCard.  The card can be purchased from the bus driver, at Queenstown Airport or O’Connell’s Mall kiosk for $5. The minimum amount to top up the card is $10. 

You don’t need a GoCard and can pay instead with cash for the higher price of  $5 per trip for an adult and $4 for a child. For trips paid in cash that start or end at the airport, it's $10.
