Wow., Just Wow! AMAZING TRIP.. I booked a helicopter flight to Milford for my Mum for her 70th birthday. Unfortunately the weather was bad so Heliworks helped her chose another day. The morning she was due to fly they upgraded her trip to an even better one - with a stopover on a glacier, then to a secluded beach on the West Coast (which she said was the highlight), then into Milford Sound. She said the whole trip was just AMAZING, and so memorable. The pilot was so friendly and knowledgable and she hasn't stopped talking about it , or showing us the fabulous photos .. thank you for giving my Mum such a fabulous experience .
Difficile de choisir entre toutes les compagnies qui proposent la visite du fjord. Finalement notre choix s est porté sur cette compagnie (merci bookme) et vraiment c était parfait petit bateau donc groupe acceptable (et non pas la foule) capitaine et son second très sympas et nous ont permis de se faire arroser sous les cascades et de voir des phoques et des pingouins !!! Et nous donner un tas d infos (bon on a pas tout compris ?)
Small boat compare to the Juice or Orange ones so it let you get a better experience of Milford Sound! It was just amazing!
Awesome weather and lovely crew. Experience on this cruise is way better then other cruise as we spend more time on water and distance to explore more of milford sound.
Its such an amazing and experience to get a chance to see the untiuch nature of New Zealand. The information given during the tour are clear and helpful.
Its breathtaking 2 hrs cruise, we've drove from queenstown to milford sound 10hrs back and fort and i can say its worth the long haul in the car, the snowy cookies and cream mountains are ecstatic. Mitre peak cruise staff are amicable. I will give this 11/10.☺️ We would love to venture more in south island next time.
Absolutely lovely scenery to see on this cruise! Had the perfect day for it and saw lots of seals!
All crews are professional and friendly. Small ship is the best for travel to Milford Sound!
We are so glad we booked a small boat as we had a chance to get to places where big boats couldn't. Advice: take a change of clothes or waterproof jacket and pants if you want to experience a waterfall. Fantastic. We loved it.
The cruise was awesome and well organized, stunning views we will remember long. I recommend springtime if you have some luck and weather is good.
From Te Anau to Milford Sound, you will never get bored because of the amazing sceneries along the way. The tour itself is a wonderful experience. The captain of the boat explained things well. We were so lucky that we get to see penguins, fur seals and dolphins during the tour. The photos that I took did not give justice to the beauty that I have witnessed though. This is something that I will do again if time and resources permit.
The driver gave very informative n interesting commentary and she’s friendly too. Love the places that we went and I managed to capture many fantastic scenery! The cruise trip was very calming and Milford Fiord is just magnifient. Remember to bring enough warm clothing, gloves and hats/hoodie. It was very cold ?
Highly recommend doing this cruise.
It was really nice and would like to go again
What a spectacular trip to Milford Sound. It was an amazing experience and Marcus was also the star! Kudos to Milford Sound Select.
Stunning!
Pick up from Te Anau, wonderful trip to Milford Sounds, driver very nice. The cruise itself, 2h15, amazing ! Complimentary tea/coffee/hot chocolate / lunch for $10 if not included in your booking. Staff amazingly friendly !
Totally worth it !!! Its a very good experience and I do recommend.
I really enjoyed the viewing deck, it had plenty of space and was able to sip some great beers while enjoying the commentary and views. Food was great and service was excellent.
Love love loved this cruise! It’s not something that we would normally do but glad we made the travel. The captain was well informed of our surrounding and the history of the locations. Saw some penguins and seals which was amazing! 10/10 would do again and the team are super friendly! Thanks for making our break away from our busy jobs that much better mitre peak cruises!
The experience on the Go Orange Milford cruise was a highlight of our holiday the skipper and the crew were so humble to us. They were very warming and made it a trip to remember. So we say a big thankyou to you all.
Although we did not experience the other cruises, the Jucy was a little cheaper and followed the same route as most of the other trip boats so therefore we as good value. The crew were friendly and informative. Only critism would be only tea was free, if you wanted coffee then put your hand in your pocket and the sound system was a bit poorvand tinny...they need some decent speakers.
A good trip for my family, nice driver and crews, beautiful views, Milford tour, I choose VIP-Milfird.
Southern discovers are always great, we booked via Bookme and got a good deal. The drive in the instructions says to allow 5.5 hours but it only took us about 4 hours from Queenstown with a couple short stops. The trip itself was cool, we got to go under a waterfall and the commentary was good. Only thing I can fault is that they didn’t try the seating off after the previous trip so we had to ask for them to dry a seat off. Make sure to take fly spray as the info centre sells it’s for $20. This isn’t anything to do with southern discoveries though and no bugs on the boat itself. Just in the car park. And keep in mind parking is $10 per hour or if you pay on the machine in the terminal it’s $30 for overnight parking. We did not see this until in the terminal. Make sure to take warm clothes and something dry for after if you like to sit outside. Will be back again :)
It was a great time at milford, they have taken us to all attractions on milford sound as it mentioned on their website. We fully enjoyed going with go orange cruise.
The internal looks like lounge/cafe setting, very modern style. You can order fosh&chip, coffee etc on the boat. The boat has 3 floors you can choose to go outside. Bottom floor goes to the head of the cruize Mid floor: entry to the deck Upper floor: entry to the upper deck Lots of room and lots of great scenery along the way! Stood on the upper deck and took ton of beautiful photos.
Buenísimo tour, excelente escenario. El lugar es maravilloso y la coordinación de la empresa excelente. Buenos profesionales y muy atentos. El chófer A1. Repetiría sin lugar a dudas.
You are expecting to see the unseen sight of the South Island, it’s truly amazing!!! Most important, you saved travel time to Milford sound!!! My kids love the cruise so much!!! It’s really a life time experience.
Long hours of travelling only with bookme half price discounts is worth going. The place is good and hot fish and chips is a pro.
Our driver Sonya was amazing! From a great sense of humour to an A++ bus driver, our experience on the coach tour was enjoyable. Facts and delivery were on point and I couldn't recommend it more. Buffet food and service onboard the cruise was amazing too. Food was delicious and the views were phenomenal. All in all, would highly recommend this on the list of things to do while in the South Island. Worth the money for sure!
Many thanks to the team at Miitre Peak. Captain and crew, as well as the staff at the kiosk. Great informative narrative from the captain, very friendly and approachable.
It was a unique cruise despite bad weather. A nice smaller boat with a great captain drove us around Milford Sound and went literally under the waterfall. We saw seals, dozens of waterfalls and amazing nature. It was more than we expected.
We were satisfied when we spotted at the marina that our boat was the smallest there. We were about 15-20 pax maximum and it was a lovely cruise. It was raining at the beginning and towards the end. And the people that where in the front of the boat got soaked, but it was amazing. Lovely and informative comments from the skipper. I even went up to the skipper to have a little chat, very nice guides who love their jobs. 10/10 highly recommended. We even saw some seal puppies sleeping on a rock and went straight into the waterfall. You can't get more for that price.
We had a great trip going to milford sound with Jucy cruise. The cruise aas nice, we had light snacks provided at the cruise which was yummy. The passengers was not so crowded so it was convenient to enjoy the scenery.
What any amazing trip on Milford sound. Excellent staff and great vessel. Milford Sound at its best plus pod of dolphins followed us all the way back up the sound.
Mitre Peak Cruises are a great option to choose when you are looking at going on a Milford sound cruise. The staff are a great chat and the skipper was great too! It is a smaller boat than compared to the other cruise boats, but this is great because the boat isn’t too overpacked. Highly recommended.
I went there with my husband, they are awesome, very friendly, complimentary tea and coffee arrangements onboard. We loved our trip.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. We got up really close to the waterfalls which added to the experience!! Would definitely recommend!!
Everything about this day was stunning from start to finish. Our driver Reynold was funny, friendly and informative along the drive from Te Anau to Milford Sound. Not having to do the drive ourselves meant we could both enjoy the incredible scenery and learnt more about the area than we would have done otherwise. Only shame was the bus was meant to have a glass roof and didn’t. The boat tour was once in a lifetime sailing amongst the fjords and spotting seals between the waterfalls. Lots of photo stops along the road as well were appreciated!
Affordable cruise, with lovely, knowledgeable staff. Boat was lovely. It was clean and felt safe. An amazing trip that I would love to do again one day. Thank you so much.
Perfect flight with very experienced friendly and knowledgeable pilot. I couldn’t fault him even though he is an Ozzie.
What an incredible experience! Our driver, Bob, was such a treat. He clearly loves his job and was great to chat with. We had the PERFECT weather for the cruise. 10/10 would recommend.
Rain couldn’t stop us from visiting Milford, so we’ve seen lots of waterfalls as a bonus. Mitre Peak crew made our experience unforgettable- small boat, insightful stories and delicious coffee. Thanks guys
Good Experience
Nice staff, delicious snack, acceptable price, and very very impressive scenery.
