Beautiful place

Milford Sound is very beautiful and impressive how the mountains and the sea get together. Then about the tour, was all good, everything that you can expect for it was all right. Thank you for your service!

Must do NZ

Astounding, the nature boat ride totally great value for money to travel to another planet of sheer craggy cliffs and foggy peaks. Even on a misty grey partly fogged day it was atmospheric, the "nature" part the environment -we didnt see any whales,dolphins or seals in May but I'm sure they bask throughout the year.Commentary was great, 2 hrs of bliss.tx.The drive into Milford Sound adds to a memorable day.Tx NZ!

Well worth it!

Easily the highlight of our whole trip across Queenstown, Arrowtown, Wānaka, and beyond. There’s no comparing to experiencing the beautiful fiords. The drive there is so scenic and yet doesn’t prepare you for seeing the stunning range of peaks, from the cruise. 10/10 would recommend
