( 0800 656 501;
www.realjourneys.co.nz
; Steamer Wharf, Beach St; tours from $55)
The stately, steam-
powered TSS
Earnslaw
celebrated a centenary of continuous service in 2012. Once the
lake's major means of transport, now its ever-present cloud of black soot seems a little in-
congruous in such a pristine setting. Climb aboard for the standard 1½-hour Lake Waka-
tipu tour (adult/child $55/22) or take a 3½-hour excursion to the high-country
Walter Peak
(adult/child $75/22).
