    Day 1

    On arrival into Queenstown you'll be met by your private chauffeur who will help orient you on the short drive to your accommodation, Eichardt's Private Hotel. Eichardt's is a Queenstown icon, perched on the shores of Lake Wakatipu in the very centre of town. You'll be welcomed warmly and have time to enjoy the town this afternoon. At a convenient time, your private ski concierge will meet you in the comfort of your accommodation to fit your gear including boots and skis or snowboard. Later enjoy a pre-dinner drink with fellow guests at Eichardt's Bar, one of Queenstown's best, before dining in-house or at one of the many nearby Queenstown restaurants.

    Day 2

    Enjoy a warming breakfast at Eichardt's restaurant before your driver arrives this morning. You will love the alpine scenery as you relax on the 45 minute drive to Cardrona this morning. On arrival your local host will ensure you have your lift passes and know which runs will be best for your ability and preferred style, before waving you off. After some world-class ski runs this morning, your host will have claimed a table for you in advance at the best lunch venue on the mountain so you don't have to fight the crowds. Later, after a full day of action on the snow, you'll enjoy après ski drinks at historic Cardona Hotel or another Wanaka bar tailored to your preference. Return to Eichardt's in time for a pre-dinner drink in the lounge; you'll love warming up by the fire. Dinner at the Eichardt's restaurant is a good option tonight.
