Black ZQN – bespoke luxury touring
BLACK ZQN is bespoke luxury, guided touring at
its very best. On road or off; luxuriating in a Rolls
Royce Silver Shadow or Bentley Flying Spur,
Range Rover or VW Caravelle; all of them deep,
glossy black.
What sort of tours do Black offer? Anything you
want. They are a bespoke service. Say what you
want and they will organise it. Anywhere in the
South Island. Every tour is accompanied by a
professional guide/driver who specialises in the
tour in hand – and has the personality to be a
wonderful companion.
Between them they deliver: exclusive winery
tours – including meeting the wine makers and
opening cellar doors closed to the public; walking
and trekking, fi shing, ski-ing, golf (including
transfers for the Pro Am), spa tours, photographic
safaris, High Country touring – following in the
footsteps of the farming and gold mining pioneers
who braved incredible hardship to create the
legend; bungy jumping, clay bird shooting, quad
biking, cruising the lake on Pacifi c Jemm – the
24-metre Italian built supercruiser – ballooning,
going safari on a jetboat, rafting, kayaking, getting
married, helicopter adventuring (with Over The
Top because they’re good and their helicopters
are black). And even just shopping.
They have exceptionally close relationships with
the best restaurants and hotels. They know the
best events and adventures. They offer the best
art tours and culinary courses with master chefs.
They can even arrange private functions in their
own bar and reception lounge located discreetly
in the heart of Queenstown.
They’ll even take ladies who’re interested to see
Claire Bloom designer-label fashions created before
their eyes from the fi rst design idea to the
fi nished product. Claire Bloom is the inspiration
of Claire Brinsley, wife of Andy Brinsley.
Andy Brinsley was the founder of Black ZQN
and many of the other iconic tourism and service
ventures that have transformed Queenstown,
starting as a partner with AJ Hackett in creating
the world’s fi rst modern bungy jump experience.
Andy Brinsley knows what the market is looking
queenstown
FEATURE
for and knows how to deliver to a standard to
match the world’s best.
Black is dedicated to the very top end in service,
to the extent of being able to meet internal
fl ights on the tarmac. They can often even
arrange private Customs clearance in the plane
for some international charter arrivals. They are
also professionally discreet. Client’s privacy is
strictly protected. Why Black? Why not? Black
is the national colour and black is grace, style
and elegance. Why ZQN? That’s airline alphabet
speak for Queenstown. That’s edgy thinking and
it typifi es Black ZQN, masters of bespoke luxury
touring. Visit blackzqn.com
