New Zealand Ski Packages is your one-stop shop for 2026 Queenstown snow package deals. We make planning an unforgettable ski holiday simple and affordable with packages that bundle everything together so you can save.
Read on to learn what we include in our Queenstown snow trips and browse our popular ski package deals.

When we say “all-inclusive,” we mean it. Everything that you need for your ski holiday is bundled together for ultimate convenience.
We don’t include flights, as most travellers can find the best deals through booking directly with the airline. But as soon as you land in Queenstown, you’ll find everything else pre-arranged for you. This includes:
Some of our ski packages also include sightseeing tours – these are detailed in the list of package inclusions.
When you book a Queenstown snow package, your Queenstown ski pass is open-dated and valid at both Coronet Peak and The Remarkables.
This means you have the flexibility to divide your time between the mountains however you wish. In addition, you can take rest days as needed or plan to take advantage of the best weather.
Some of our Queenstown snow trip deals also include a stay in the nearby resort town of Wanaka, which similarly offers a flexible lift pass valid at both Cardrona and Treble Cone. If you stay in both destinations, you can ski as many as four world-class resorts during a short visit.
Whether you choose a rental car or ski coach, these ski packages are all about making the most of your time on the slopes.






These Queenstown snow packages are suitable for families, with larger rental vehicles, family-style accommodation, and time to relax and explore in between ski days.
Both Coronet Peak and The Remarkables offer group lessons for children ages 4 and up. Coronet Peak also offers childcare and snow play or lesson combos for children ages 2-5.
For families with children under the age of 2, we recommend skiing at Cardrona, which is just over an hour’s drive from Queenstown.



If this is your first time skiing or snowboarding, these Queenstown snow deals will get you off to a fantastic start. The Intro to Snow package bundles together lift passes, rental equipment, and lessons for ultimate convenience and savings.
And with comparable lessons offered for children, these Learn to Ski packages are perfect for the whole family!



If this is your first visit to New Zealand, why not make the most of it with both skiing and sightseeing? From jet-boating to the iconic TranzAlpine Train, these Ski & Play Queenstown snow packages pack in a fantastic range of experiences.



With Wanaka just an hour’s drive from Queenstown, it’s easy to combine both ski destinations in one action-packed snow trip. Or travel the Powder Highway and hit all the highlights of New Zealand skiing, from Mt Hutt through to the Queenstown region.






With the international airport located just 15 minutes from downtown Queenstown, there’s nowhere more convenient for a ski holiday. These are our top tips for making your stay as seamless as possible:
August is the best month to book a ski holiday in Queenstown. July and August have the best snow cover, but July is very busy with the school holidays, so accommodation fills up fast and you’ll find longer lines up on the mountains.
The Queenstown ski pass is valid at both Coronet Peak and The Remarkables. This is included in all of our Queenstown ski packages.
In addition, both Cardrona and Treble Cone are within a 1 hour 40 minute drive of Queenstown, though these two mountains use a different lift pass. The Cardona and Treble Cone lift pass can be added to a stay in Queenstown, or else many skiers choose to split their time between Queenstown and Wanaka.
Yes! We can upgrade your accommodation to 5-star/luxury with any Queenstown ski package. In addition, you can choose private lessons or private ski transfers for a more exclusive experience.
If you book a Queenstown Ski Coach Package, this includes daily transfers to Coronet Peak or The Remarkables.
You can choose either a hotel pick-up (which leaves at set times each morning) or the standard shuttle leaving from downtown at frequent intervals.
Yes, our Queenstown snow packages are available during the school holidays. However, accommodation fills up fast, so we recommend booking far in advance if you are planning to travel in July.
Yes, you are required to carry snow chains when driving to the Queenstown ski fields. If snow chains are required, you will be directed to pull over, and often a staff member will be on hand to assist with putting these on.
We include snow chains in all of our ski car rentals.
The Queenstown ski pass is open-dated and valid at both Coronet Peak and The Remarkables, so where possible, you should try to visit a mountain that is unaffected by weather-related closures or else reschedule your skiing days accordingly.
If this is not possible, NZSki does offer refunds when a weather-related closure of both mountains occurs.
Yes, Queenstown ski packages are typically less expensive than both Australia and Japan. Lift passes are some of the cheapest you’ll find at any world-class ski resorts worldwide, and accommodation is typically less expensive as well.
Depending on availability, we can often book Queenstown snow packages at the last minute. We work with a wide range of operators and can often find availability where none is searchable online. However, last-minute ski holidays do tend to cost more due to limited accommodation options.
