Intense day but worth the ride
This journey to Milford Sound was incredible. This is a huge day as you're leaving Queenstown around 7am and come back around 7pm but it's so worth it. First of all thanks to our driver who was the main character of this trip, explaining us everything we see and making sure that everyone was in a good energy. Then you arrive at Milford Sound, nothing to add except fin a nice spot on the boat and open your eyes. Eveyrthing was smooth and well managed. The buffet was really good and plenty of options. Definitely recommend this experience !!
