What a beautiful day and best experience to share with my children. Peter was absolutely amazing. Thank you 😊
An experience that we will always fondly remember. The hospitality and knowledge of the crew are second to none.
Even though it rained all day so our views were a little limited, it was a wonderful day out with great commentary and sight seeing. The picnic lunch was great also. Highly recommended.
The driver picked us up from accommodation. We drove 2,5 hours to Milford Sound with a very informative commentary and a lot of stops along the way, to take stunning pictures and to get closer to the nature! The cruise ship was from real journey with a nice lunch buffet with many options.(yes it's very Asian oriented, but still delicious!) On both ways we made a stop to use bathroom facilities. girls no worries ;) The best thing about leaving Te Anau early is that all the tourist buses are not in Milford sound yet. It's still quiet with a nice VIP feeling. Thanks for this day!
The whole family had an awesome day. The vip tour is the best way to get the most out of your trip. Our Driver Rhys was so knowledgeable and knew the best spots, as well as good timing of the whole trip. If you drove yourself you would miss all of that. Such an awesome day and everything was with ease. We were extremely lucky too.! The weather turned it on for us- raining at the best times and holding off at the right times. The rain brought out all the cascading waterfalls. We even got to get close to some seals and dolphins on the cruise (perks of being on a small cruise), and if you’re game you take a dip under a waterfall on the cruise too. A must do and we all wish we could go back some day soon with VIP Milford
We were so glad that we had booked with VIP Milford!!! Mark, our guide and driver, was absolutely fantastic. There was a delay on the road because of snow conditions. Guess what? Mark took us to some "bonus" areas with wonderful scenaries before resuming to our drive to Milford Sound. The cruise was excellent. The buffet lunch was nice (and well coordinated). We would recommend VIP Milford again. Many thanks for our wonderful memories of New Zealand (particularly Milford Sound). Minh, Belinda, Alexander and Isaac.
This is a small group tour and the pick up is at where you stayed. The driver and guide is knowledgeable and shared many information. The tour also brought you to some interesting walk along the journey. The buffet food was delicious, abundance of food, sauces. Highly recommended. We enjoyed the tour.
Everything was perfect with this trip from the coach to the cruise, the passengers to the food. Mark, our driver n guide, was one of the nicest persons I’ve ever met. Such a delight to be on this tour!
Great tour guides packed with information and stunning views well worth it
Wonderful day tour. Comfortable coach arrived on time with our driver Reece who was full of knowledge of the area. He paced the journey beautifully and knew all the photo stops. The cruise through Milford was more than I expected - would love to do it again, saw waterfalls, bottle nose dolphins, fur skin seals and mutton birds. To travel to the Tasman sea down the Fiord. I would rate it 10/5 for the entire trip if I could!
Great host, comfortable bus trip, beautiful scenery and that all before you even get to the boat. Once on the Real Journeys cruise the Milford Sounds scenic cruise was everything we could have dreamed of. Even with rain and wind was such a breathtaking trip. Loved every moment. Would go back again and again. A must do for visitors and locals like. A+++++ ❤️
I am really grateful that the tour was set up even there was only 2 guests on the van. That was a beautiful sunny day when we were in Milford Sound, so lucky. The sceneries with waterfalls, mountains, creeks, and the snow left me a deep impression, so as the excellent introduction and guidance given by our tour guide Justine. The cruise started early enough so there was not crowded at all in the ship. Strongly recommended. Thank you!
Fantastic from start to finish. Mark our driver was knowledgable informative and considerate. Would definitely recommend.
We had a coach/cruise during summer and was great! But for this year,we booked on a winter time since my sister who came from overseas wanted to experience snow via Mildford. It was such a very good and exciting trip.From our coach bus driver Thank you but sorry I forgot your name you're champion! Till we board on the cruise with superb lunch and nice staff.
Dave was a friendly and knowledgeable driver, very comfortable van and the cruise was fantastic!
We really enjoyed all the short stops along the way to milford sounds And A couple stops on the way back. Milford sounds was amazing! Unforgettable experience. Lovely buffet. Yummy ribs, chops, chicken and Asian food, even ice cream. Your in for a long day, abit tiring on the way back but worth it in the end. Just have a early night the night before! We personally wouldn't pay full price but the special was worth it which was $99pp. Thanks Justin for your touring us you made it enjoyable ?
Mark at VIP was an amazing driver and tour guide. Mark took us to a lot of different stops on the way there and back that we would never have done if we had driven ourselves. Mark had an extensive knowledge about Te Anau and Milford Sound and was always approachable. The cruise was amazing and we loved seeing a beautiful part of New Zealand we had not explored before.
I took up VIP Milford shuttle from Te Anau to Milford Sound Cruise by Real Journey. VIP Milford driver Mark was really informative and shared a lot of information along the shuttle journey despite it was a foggy morning and we could not see anything. The only thing I would like to comment is on the Real Journey Cruise where we could not hear the English guide talking when we were having our lunch in the cruise, the voice was too soft and unclear.
Very happy that my friends and I took this tour! Tour guide seems really knowledgeable about the place.
The best way to do it!! We had all the stops to our selves as your set off before the influx of Queenstown coaches. great local knowledge and the best stops along the way. Highly recommend.
Awesome transport! Leather seats and very comfortable. we had such a small group too. Our driver was really nice and you could tell that he is passionate. We had plenty of stops and no rush really. The boat was small so it did feel that you are too close to the waterfalls - which was awesome! The commentator on the boat was great as well. It was an awesome experience!
excellent service and it is one of the highlight of our trip
Our trip with VIP Milford Sound during mid January was absolutely sublime. Our coach driver was friendly and informative and the places he stopped at, both to and from Milford Sound, were stunning! The cruise was brilliant and the food superb. I’d highly recommend this company for your adventure.
What an incredible day, from the moment our driver Mark picked us up from our accommodation till the moment we were dropped back home his friendliness, professionalism and local knowledge was a pleasure to be around. The small tour size allowed for many stops along the way to Milford Sounds, unloading and reloading was a breeeze and not once did we feel we had to wait for the prime spot to take photos or wait in lines to board like you would in a regular coach. Milford Sounds from the boat was incredible but much to our surprise the scenery on the journey there was the even more spectacular. After finishing our day with Milford VIP we knew we had received the best experience Milford Sounds has to offer, I would highly recommend them to everyone. You will not be disappointed!
This experience was amazing. Really comfi couch for just 10 people. Steven, driver guy was really really nice and he was giving us a lot of information about everything. Every stop on the Road was perfect. The food was good, just a little bit spicy for me but ice cream fixed it. I recommend this experience.
Perfect weather, comfortable coach,perfect timing, informative and interesting tour! We enjoyed a lot during the whole journey!
Absolutely amazing experience ! Great deal for such a nice trip! Definitely Recommend VIP sound Milford cruise ! 5 stars!!
Small group works for us just fine. We had great weather. Sacha was really nice and we had plenty of stops along the way. The buffet was nice, Cruise a little crowded... saw seals and dolphins too!
