Your time spent in Central Otago is not complete without a visit to the historical gold mining sites of the Central Otago goldrush.

Steve Toyer of Clutha River Cruises has resided in Central Otago for 20 years and is a self confessed 'gold nut', who talks about gold history with passion and unbounded enthusiasm.

The Clutha River Heritage Cruise ventures through spectacular scenery to the old gold towns of Butcher's Point and Doctor's Point, delving into the history of the European and Chinese gold mining sites.  You'll start from Alexandra and stop at Doctor's Point for light refreshments and a guided tour of the well preserved gold mining site dating from 1862.

Gain a unique view of Central Otago scenery as you peacefully cruise the stunning Roxburgh Gorge, past huts built into the natural rock by gold miners in the 1860's.
