On a different note, things to do in Queenstown with a toddler at the start of August?

So far I've locked down the gondola/luge (if it re-opens on time that is!) and the Ice Skating arena.

Looking at snow farm in Wanaka but reviews are pretty bad and people are saying just rent a sledge and go down a bank off the side of the road (more fun that way).
Also, anyone rented a car from Go Rentals? They are cheap, but apparently they pick you up and drop you off to the airport as they're based a few minutes away from the terminal.

Cheers

I think all the main rentals have parks at the airport

A lot of cheapo rentals, at least in Wellington and Auckland, have premises away from the airport - cheaper rent I guess. I've used Auckland ones before, they pick you up/drop you off in a shuttle, no biggie if you're not in a hurry. Not sure how that would work with a young child though, and not sure how it works in Queenstown.
