To those naysayers who are lamenting the final weeks of winter and yearning for summer's sweaty chokehold once more, I ask you this: What better way is there to see out the season than with a once-in-a-lifetime experience in snowy Queenstown? Well, Uber is looking to make your winter wonderland dreams come true just once more this year, with a truly incredible experience to celebrate their 10 year birthday in New Zealand. Uber New Zealand Managing Director, Emma Foley said, “Over the last ten years, almost half of the country’s population have relied on Uber to earn, go from A to B, or have their meals and groceries delivered to their doorsteps. During this special milestone, we want to show our appreciation to the people of Aotearoa by providing a uniquely Kiwi experience that hasn’t been done anywhere else in the world.
” This world-first experience brings together the best of rides and eats in the iconic Southern Alps and it's a seriously generous gift for Kiwis! For a very limited time only, Uber One members will be able to order a ride in an Uber snowcat to ski Mount Cardrona’s backcountry — and also gorge themselves on the best of local cuisine at the highest altitude fine dining spot in the country. The trip takes place with the local team at Soho Basin — a private backcountry snow experience, with snowcat access to 177 hectares of skiable mountain terrain, paired with an unparalleled alpine food and wine experience by award-winning Amisfield.
