Queenstown Hen Party Ideas

Why You ladies Should Have A Queenstown Hens Party!

Because it’s freaking Queenstown, that’s why! This is an all year round playground for both the absurdly wealthy and impoverished backpackers who are looking for a good time. This is the dream location for your hens’ party no matter what the season, whether it’s a magical snow covered winter wonderland or a hot summer party destination that
you’re after. This is the place to be.

How To Get To Queenstown

Fly. Definitely fly. All of New Zealand’s major airports fly directly here because it’s such a hot tourism spot. You have to be in the air to make the most of the fabulous mountains and pristine bodies of water that greet you as you fly over the region. It will take your breath away and that’s a promise.

The Most Awesome Queenstown Hen Day Ideas!

You’ll need help planning your hens’ weekend because there’s so much on offer that it’s hard to choose so here’s our faves:

Private Boat Cruise ‒
The pristine, snow fed Lake Wakatipu is so vast that a lake cruise is the perfect way to see the sights. Under the shadow of the mountains, you’ll sit back with your glass of wine (or whatever you choose from the bar) and drink in the beauty that surrounds you. This is the best way to take in the amazing natural landscape while you get to know all your other hens’ party guests

Wine Tour ‒
Some of the best wines in New Zealand are created in this region so take this opportunity to have fun with your hens’ party and sample all that’s on offer. You’ll visit scenic vineyards which are popular for weddings (so you’ll get to steal a few ideas!) If you want to include lunch, this area is also well known for its expert cuisine.

Bungy Jumping ‒
This is it! This is your opportunity to experience that over used adventure tourism tagline with a bunch of your friends. What better way to seal friendships than to jump off a bridge or cliff with all of your hens’ party. It will make a fantastic photo opportunity to start off that all important wedding album. Let’s face it, after bungy jumping, the wedding won’t seem so scary anymore.

Pole Dancing ‒
Admit it, you’ve always wanted to try it, right? Now’s the time for you and your hens party to wrap your limbs around a pole and do your best sexy routines. Don’t worry though, we’ll have an expert there to show you the ropes…and to catch you if you fall.

Night Time Hen Party Activities ‒

If you’ve followed our advice, then your daytime hens’ activities would have been pretty fun and/or intense. Now is the time to relax and have even more fun with these ideas:

Cocktail Making Class ‒
This is a great way to start off your hens’ night. Under the experienced eye of a bartender, you’ll learn to make the traditional classic cocktails or maybe create your own signature one and name it after yourself.

Pub crawl ‒
With this walking pub crawl, you’ll meet up with other groups ready to party and make your way around the bars of Queenstown. You know this is going to be fun, and it may just be a great opportunity for the single ladies. Make sure you have a veil ready for the bride (I know it’s tacky, but admit it, we all do it) and tiaras for the other
ladies. It’ll be a blast.
