Milford coach and cruise
We all had a great time. The driver was exceptional both his driving, the commentary with his wealth of knowledge and humour. Enjoyed the picnic lunch and the crew on the cruise. All made this trip an experience of a life time to a most beautiful place one will ever see. Thankyou Southern Discoveries

Great Day Trip
It is just a typical day trip but that doesn’t mean that the tour is bad as you visit one of the most beautiful places in the world. The guide gives you a bunch of info about Queenstown so as Milford Sound while you’re on the way. He drops you off several times at scenic spots and gives enough time to enjoy the view. Once you get to the sound, you get 2 hours to cruise on the water and the view is simply unbelievable. You can enjoy the view on the deck of the ferry while having your picnic lunch. The guide also organizes the flight tour that goes back to Queenstown from the sound. Overall it was a great journey even though you have long hours on a bus. Must do if you’re in Queenstown.

Too fog.. We couldn´t see anything
I know that the company can´t control the weather, but it is asking for my feedback on the attraction.. So this is the feedback. The weather in Milford and around was veryyyyyy fog, so we could not see anything... virtually nothing! I just think that in these cases, that the company know that is fog in Milford, they could at least give an option for the customer to cancel the trip. Even on the way to there was fog and we couldn't see anything on the road... And to finish with a gold key, our bus broke on the way back and we needed to wait for a bus from another company to rescue us. Our drive and the buffet was good. And I don´t think is nice to have to listen to all instructions on the boat in 3 different languages...

Average
Bus experience was A+, the cruise on the other hand was a good experience but the buffet experience was 0/10. Instructed to sit at a table, went there and 5 minutes later some Chinese tourists come and start yelling saying it’s reserved for them. We told them we got told to sit only on the left, they proceeded to call one of the staff which then said go sit somewhere else, my fiance’ and I were not taken to a seat, instead we had to sit apart for the duration of the buffet.
