Join us for the ultimate day-trip to New Zealand's unforgettable Milford Sound.
Experience for yourself the grandeur and stunning beauty of a place where mountains plunge steeply into a deep fiord teeming with rare wildlife.
You'll soon see why Milford Sound is one of the world's greatest destinations as you take in the scale of this natural wonder from both the air and sea.
The flight from Queenstown over the Southern Alps opens up endless panoramic views of a landscape forged by the greatest forces of nature, left unchanged by man.
Take it all in; rugged ridge-lines, snow-capped peaks, waterfalls cascading to lush valley floors covered with ancient forests, and divided by crystal clear streams.
On arrival in Milford Sound you will set off onboard a comfortable cruise vessel to begin an up-close exploration of the fiord from sea level.
Jagged cliffs, and hanging rainforest rises sharply up to snowy peaks hundreds of meters above you.
Expect to see seals and occasionally dolphins and penguins as you pass close to magnificent waterfalls and sheer granite cliffs, while your skipper provides you with a detailed and entertaining commentary of the region and its history.

Amazing experience, 5 stars, a 10 star experience.
Maybe it was the blue skies and those perfectly placed clouds brushing the mountaintops, but I wasn’t prepared for just how breathtaking this trip would be. The views on takeoff and landing—both ways—were unreal, and the cruise through Milford Sound just sealed it. Photos can’t capture the scale here: the sheer height of the surrounding peaks, the snow-capped ridges, the waterfalls that seem to fall forever. It’s one of those “you have to see it yourself” experiences. If you can swing it, take the plane in and out. The views are extraordinary, and our pilot was fantastic—smooth, confident, and brought us right up close to the mountains. Absolutely unforgettable. Wow.

Incredible
The whole experience from start to finish, including the booking , communication updates due to unseasonal late snowfall and then the actual experience was nothing short of first class! incredible service with a shuttle pick up and then back to base to meet the friendly team and got a comprehensive overview of the day ahead and then the flight into Milford was breathtaking with all the snow capped mountains. The cruise was beautiful with lots of wildlife including dolphins seals and penguins and then the flight back was fantastic with a different route following the lake. The whole team including the pilots of course, were so friendly and highly recommend this experience.

Flights and cruise gave magnificent views, from snow-capped mountains to lazing fur seals. Can't praise it highly enough

An Amazing Day
This is a very special way to get to experience the spectacular Milford Sound . Andrew our captain was very informative and we enjoyed amazing views high up within the mountains themselves as we flew before landing in Milford Sound for our Cruise which did not disappoint .Andrew took us on a different route homeward bound for more jaw dropping sights. Everything ran very smoothly and it was truly a day to remember!
