Big day! Such a great bucket list item to tick off, the coach was great, the journey getting there was just as good as Milford sound. The driver was such a cool guy. The stops on the way where great.
Everything was perfectly organized from the word go. We had a truly remarkable and wonderful Coach Driver cum guide Mr. Pumbaa, who really added value to the trip. He was very concerned about the passengers safety as well as truly informative. He spoke for nearly the entire trip from Queenstown to Milford Sound, explaining the history of each place as we drove along. The trip onboard the vessel M.V. Pride of Milford Sound was also very pleasant. The buffet lunch served onboard the vessel was also really good. Thank you Southern Discoveries and especially Mr. Pumbaa for making our trip a memorable one. 👏
Easy and convenient to go with the bus. The bus driver gave us a lot of information about the area and kept us entertained. The buffet lunch is worth getting because you do have a long day. It was easy to book and all the information was email through. Well worth it.
Beautiful drive and breathtaking scenery with knowledgeable driver. Perfect combination.

Bus was comfortable, trip was beautiful, driver was funny, interactive and knowledgeable. It is a long 12 hour day, but something you will always remember. Highly recommend.
