Milford Sound is such an iconic place that you need to immerse in it and see it from different aspects. The 2.5 hour kayak followed by the 2 hour cruise looked to be and indeed wax a great way to do that. The kayak trips get you up & personal with the water. The cruise let's you see more and in a relaxed way. Perfect.

Me and my husband drove to Te Anau the day before so that we can have a good rest and only catch the tour bus for a 2hrs drive. The coach arrived on time and the driver was very knowledgeable with few stops here and there. The cruise itself was amazing, food was great and the service of the staff was impeccable. It is really worth going on a tour bus rather than driving yourself to Milford Sound as you wouldn’t know history or information about the places you will pass through on your way to Milford Sound. Added bonus was a snowfall during our trip. I would highly recommend Go Orange for a trip to Milford Sound!

If weather is clear it will take your breath away. We were lucky enough to experience this cruise during clear & calm weather. Choose your timing wisely because cloud cover or wind will totally change this experience. That said, the drive to the bay was well worth the entire trip alone. The mountains and landscape is beautiful!

The weather wasn't perfect but it's a awesome experience. The staff was very friendly. Coffee and tea was nice for warming up.

Going through the milford sound is an absolute must when visiting New Zealand! The views are beautiful, on this cruise we were able to get close enough to cliffs for waterfall puctures and seal sightings. No only was the cruise great, the drive to milford sou d was amazing. Do it at least once if cost is a barrier.

An absolutely amazing flight experience by Over the Top. Such a fabulous team with special thanks to Katie for the warm meet and greet and Brad our pilot for a great flight. We were upgraded to the champagne and pavlova package which was a wonderful surprise for my husband celebrating his 50th birthday. We had great weather and got some fantastic photos. For anyone who is hesitant about flying in a helicopter don't be - I was terrified but the team at OTT are so reassuring making the experience thoroughly enjoyable. I'd higly recommend booking with these guys. Thanks again for making my husband's birthday such a memorable one!

Fantastic day to be out there. Calm waters topped with sunlight. Never a dull moment thoughout. Nice and friendly crew on the vessel too.

From seeing dolphins to seals to penguins, it was just amazing!!! Definitely a breath taking moment!!!

Absolutely recommended. Great price, friendly staff and so nice to see without too many other tourists.

Breathtaking! To date the most memorable experience in New Zealand. Being a Welshman it was great to hear the history behind the name ‘Milford sound’, turns out to be a man from my home town Milford haven :)

Awesome trip, a Milford Sound cruise has always been on my bucket list. Was not disappointed and would do it all over again next time.

What an amazing experience. Interesting and knowledgeable crew. Saw some seals. Fabulous

A value for money cruise. The cruise ship was clean and look new, free flow of coffee and tea on board. The cruise so near to the waterfall was awesome.

Skipper was great, gave lots of interesting facts about the area and landscape. Weather was perfect and we saw a couple of dolphins and seals

Great morning cruising Milford Sound

Kia Ora team. From the booking, to the warm greeting at the check in counter. Then our friendly captain and team on board. Absolutely, 100%. This was my fourth time up Milford Sound. Everytime time, a brilliant experience. The light changes constantly and of course every second is a perfect picture moment. Thank you Southern Discoveries. Excellent value for money, so many areas to enjoy the sound and memories for life. Katie Goddard Australia

A magical place one of the best experiences of my life. The landscape is unbelievable and the most waterfalls I have ever seen. The cruise was great getting so close to a waterfall that you get wet was the best. A must see for everyone.

This is over the top, just unbelievable! I need to pinch myself to check that I’m not dreaming. Photos will not do justice, nothing can, promise! You got to see it to believe it. Just stunning, no words breathtaking wonder! My five-oh milestone yesterday is hands up, most remarkably memorable 🥂 All glory to God who create and paint and sculpted and breathe the Milford Haven 💕

Stunning and beautiful cruise full of waterfalls and nature! We took the 10:30am tour before the tour buses arrived and it was much less crowded. We’ve never laughed more than when we got our glacial facials!

First time for Me and my husband and we could not have had a better time LOVED IT and it was worth the 4hr drive

One of the best places the visit and the crew is as good was friendly. Thanks for the delicious vegetable soup on board.

Loved it. We had a spectacular day. Took the 3:15pm trip. Less people on board which made it much more comfortable. Scenery was spectacular. Worth every cent.

Great value for whanau wanting to see the sights and sounds of Milford Sounds. Friendly and welcoming staff. The MC provided lighthearted, funny and entertaining onboard commentary. Very nice selection of food and drinks.

Just after the school holidays in early May was a great time to go. No crowds, no snow or ice on road. We took our time and had 3.5 hours to get there - time to stop at the views on the way and have some ham rolls for lunch from our car. Take bug spray for the carpark - the buggers will try and get in the car!

Gorgeous views. The best part was the waterfall, we also managed to get wet. Our kids enjoyed it ehich was great. Loved seeing the seals. The only downside I would say is not knowing about the free tea and hot drinks. I would've got one earlier if I had known. No sign to say help yourself. But overall nice day out but most importantly gorgeous views.

This is very nice experience. But you need to drive a long way to get to the Cruise first. The weather might be a big factor, too. Cheers Enjoy

Great experience

Absolutely loved it!! Such a stunning tranquil place. The cruise was spectacular

Had an amazing boat cruise on an overcast afternoon. It was beautiful and mystical. We were running late due to the road closing while the snow was cleared and the boat thankfully waited for us. The staff on the boat were awesome! Would definitely do this cruise again!!

Great value. Lots of wildlife. Excellent commentary by Jeremy. Recommend

A wonderful experience.

This was a superb trip on a glorious day. All staff were fantastic to deal with and we’d highly recommend this trip
