Excellent experience. Lovely pilot and lovely staff. We had fantastic weather, so much snow over the mountains, and beautiful blue skies. Saw lots of dolphins and seals on Milford Sound. I would normally not splash out for this kind of thing but I definitely think it’s worth it, as opposed to taking a 5 hour coach trip. The flight made the experience. Would recommend. Try and book for start of your trip so there is time to reschedule in case of inclement weather. The small plane is awesome, 5 people. Worth going from Wanaka too, which is a lovely town to explore. Would be worth staying there a night to explore.

Whilst Milford Sound in its own right is a place of majestic beauty and grandiosity, the flight from Queenstown to Milford with True South Flight, was a real gem! So much beauty seen, so much interesting and valuabke information given by our friendly and professional pilote, Kevin (?). More than worth its price!

We schedule was on time. The pilot Blair showed and discussed us the sceneries along our flight, and on our way back we flew to a different route. It was really an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend True South Flight going to Milford Sound rather than long drive. It is one of a kind.

This is my second time flying with the helicopter line and still it exceeded my expectations. From the moment you book it, there will never be problems in terms of communication. Staffs were very accommodating and will assist you with all your needs and concerns. The pilot did a great job overall. It was an informative and a safe flight. The best part was when we landed on the glacier which had an amazing 360 degree view. Kudos to the pilot who can take great pictures! It was wirth every dollar. Will definitely book for a third time next winter.

Awesome, top adventure. Great Pilot. Great bucket list experience.

We had Pete as our pilot in queenstown and and it was such an amazing experience! we felt safe through out the whole experience and it made our honeymoon unforgettable. it's definitely worth the price and a once in a life time experience with beautiful views and sob much fun. we did the 50 minute scenic flight with alpine snow landing and its something we'll remember forever. thanks Pete!

Due to limited numbers, we were lucky enough to receive an upgrade to a longer flight. Our pilot was friendly and informative and told us all about the area up in the air. The ride was smooth and he took us over the mountains and right up against the ice from both sides so that everyone could get pictures. It was an amazing experience. Then we landed down in the valley and were given time to walk around and take pictures. Again the pilot was more than happy to take pictures for you. It was a great experience and I highly recommend it.

Certainly a must while you in New Zealand. I am a local but still fascinated from the beautiful world we are surrounded and we should appreciate every minute of it. Truesouthflights made this day magical for us. Keep up the good adventures Toddy & Peg

Perfect flight with very experienced friendly and knowledgeable pilot. I couldn’t fault him even though he is an Ozzie.

I traveled with a person in a wheelchair and I found the staff to be incredibly friendly and helpful. The trip itself was an amazing spectacle. 110% worth the money, this has been the highlight of my trip to Queenstown so far.

The cruise was a very special experience. We had a lot of rain during our cruise and didn’t see that much of the mountains, but the amount of waterfalls we saw beause of the rain was amazing!! The clouds in combination with the rain and the mist made it a mystic place for us. An unforgettable experience!

We were unsure whether to drive to Milford or spend the money to fly & I'm so glad we chose the latter. The welcome & subtle weigh in was great, staff were all very friendly. The only thing needed before take off was possibly a 2nd toilet...took a while to queue for the facilities! The flight itself was amazing. We had a beautiful day for it, sunshine & clear skies. Our pilot, Karl was awesome pointing out the sights during the 40 min flight over the mountains & lakes. If anyone is thinking of doing this then please do...its an experience you wont forget!!

Loved the trip - expensive of course but totally worth it for the time saved and the fantastic views from the plane!! The flight was even better than the cruise! The crew from True South Flights was really friendly and professional. Fully recommend!

I went on the cruise on a rainy day, it was surprisingly spectacular water falls along the way and in Milford Sound. Best experience, highly recommended.

Wonderful coach and cruise to Milford Sound. The coach driver was very knowledgeable giving good insights. A smooth drive from Queenstown to Milford Sound. A few things could be improved to have a similar experience to guests- the rooftop glass window doesn't cover all, which is understandable considering other necessities, but could relook at how this can be made better; fantastic lunch but not enough tables especially with non Southern Discoveries booking the table for their clients; and finally just 3 stops for journey which has 15 scenic stops is pretty low. Overall still an enjoyable trip.

The tour was nothing short of AMAZING! Our guide Jeff was spectacular and was very knowledgeable of the area! Milford Sounds is surreal and left my husband and me absolutely speechless! I highly recommend people do this instead of driving themselves. You learn so much about the area and history!!

Captain of the boat is very observant , sighted penguins in the bushes and we had no chance to do that . We were perplexed with sights , and beauty of Milford. Thank you team

From the minute we boarded the bus, this was a day to remember. Our driver Jason (aka Cowboy) made the long journey down to Milford, both interesting and hilarious. The cruise, with Captain Dennis and his friendly crew, was breathtaking. The brilliant calm blue sunny day made it perfect. I would recommend the Go Orange experience to anyone. Couldn't have been better !

Absolutely lovely scenery to see on this cruise! Had the perfect day for it and saw lots of seals!

Such good value for money, the staff are all really friendly and the views speak for themselves but the mitre peak know how to make the most of them and take you to all the best stops! Would definitely do this cruise again.

Great experience from start to finish. Bridget kept us up to date after 1st trip was cancelled due to the weather. Andrew picked us up on time and pilot Ewan was great pointing things out during the flight and even warning us when to expect a wee bump or two. Cruise was also brilliant. The captain and crew kept us well informed. We’re worth the cost.

We had the best time! It was so so so beautiful and we got very close to the waterfalls for an amazing view, saw seals, and took in the breathtaking views. The tour commentary was awesome too. Highly recommend!

Coupled with a super sunny day out, it made a perfect cruise! Big thumb up to the friendly and experience staff. Cheers, MC

The Milford Sounds cruise is a must do! The scenery is absolutely stunning. The Mitre Peak crew were so friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Bus was comfortable, large, well equipped including good heating/cooling. Driver was knowledgeable, entertaining, helpful and highly competent. Boat was comfortable, had versatile seating and viewing arrangements, & free fish and chips was great. Captain's commentary was informative and altogether bus and boat tour was most enjoyable. Staying in Te Anau rather than Queenstown would involve less travel on the day - Go Orange pick up from there. Hindsight id marvellous isn't it?

Totally worth it !!! Its a very good experience and I do recommend.

Return coach and cruise from Queenstown to Milford Sound was amazing. The drive was the highlight with stunning scenery and plenty of photo stops. Our driver “Vaughan” was knowledgeable and made the journey really interesting with great commentary. The cruise was also beautiful and well organised. Highly recommended.

Dave our driver/guide for the journey to Milford Sound was fantastic. Plenty of opportunities to stop for photos on the way to and from Milford Sound to capture the stunning beauty of this area. The cruise was wonderful, enjoyed the buffet lunch and the natural beauty of the area. This is a must do experience and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with VIP Milford.

Boat was really good, okay coffee and tea. They offered an earlier departure - that was great! Average price but very expensive for a 2 hours trip. I would love to have more information about Milford sound while they are taking us around the area.

Absolutely stunning view.

We had great weather--not a cloud in the sky--and our guide Tobias was wonderful. We kayaked around 15km over 4 hours and enjoyed the peaceful beauty of Milford Sound. All gear is provided, just make sure to take insect repellent and a bag lunch/snacks.

Great experience! Nick was a great host!

We booked this trip through bookme but unfortunately no order confirmation or receipt was received. We booked again direct. Upon arrival we had paid for 4 tickets and not 2. They actively refunded us there and then. The actual trip was a quick 2 hours through the sound and we stayed on upper viewing deck which was not crowded. A simple commentary was provided and we stopped 3 times to see highlights which for us was seeing a penguin and stunning scenery.

Awesome trip, the tour guide was the bomb, scenic views was just amazing words can't describe how beautiful milford sounds is and to top it of the soup of the day was yummy ? Recommend everyone to check Milford sounds out it's awesome ??...

Had a really great time the weather was nice just a bit if a shame they don’t go under the waterfall anymore . We also saw dolphins 🐬 which was amazing

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!

It was a very memorable experience and the staff was all very helpful and polite

This was the best decision we made on our Honeymoon! Maddy at the desk was an absolute gem to coordinate with. We signed up for the Friday and had cancellations due to the weather and not meeting the min required number of passengers on the tour over the next two days. Maddy was polite, helpful and could see that we were willing to make anything work just to have the experience in a Helicopter. She emailed the next day saying we were in luck with other passengers signing up and would fly the next day! That morning was perfect blue skies and Heli Tours went above and beyond by upgrading us to the longer Milford Sounds Extended Tour just so that we could get up there. We will never forget this experience and it was hands down the absolute highlight of our Honeymoon. Thank you to Maddy and our pilot for the most incredible day that we will remember for the rest of our lives!! Highly recommend supporting this local enterprise.

Incredible experience.gtreat service.i would recommend this cruise for everyone.

My husband and I absolutely LOVED this experience! ? It was a wonderful day out at Milford Sound and this boat cruise was well worth it! The onboard crew were outstanding, helpful and informative and we got to truly experience Milford Sound at its finest! Definitely worth doing! ❤️

We went on an absolutely perfect day, under clear skies and just after a massive rain had gone through, and I’d 1000% recommend! Riding the swell out was tons of fun from our spot standing at the front of the boat. The captain also took us right up into a couple waterfalls, which was both fun and funny. I personally haven’t experienced a cruise with one of the bigger boats that the other local companies use, but it certainly seems like it’s a bit more fun with these guys and their little vessels. Cheers, and have a great time in Milford!

We took the 9am cruise to avoid the crowd and found that this was a very good decision. We were extremely lucky, since it had been raining for 5 days, but the weather cleared up when we did our cruise. The Real Journeys staff were very friendly, the view from both the top deck and the lower deck was nice, and the toilets were clean. Everything contributed to an amazing experience.

Although the view of the mountains was bad because of the rain, we got to see much more waterfalls. Wherever you looked there were waterfalls. Amazing. The size of this particular boat was smaller than you might expect, which was perfect. Not too many people (around 50). It was a very comfortable cruise, nice soft seats, coffee and thea as much as you like, easy to walk around, big windows and enough place outside to take your pictures. Also nice that it stopped about 3 times almost under a fall.

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.

Will Milford sound makes me feel awe since I have seen the grandeur of fiord in Norway? Before the trip, I was wondering if it is worth the distance to visit. Now I can say it is a different experience and it is all worthwhile. Thanks to the dolphin and fur seals!

Such an amazing experience. Staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Our driver Ngalie was such a friendly lady. My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Milford Sound and stoked at the cheap prices we paid. Thanks for a great tour!
