We had a really nice experience, the crew was lovely, it was a beautiful sunny day, we were almost alone in the fjords, I definitely recommend it!
We loved our experience of Milford Sound. All of the employees through the company and onboard the vessel were very friendly and organized. We saw dolphins and a baby seal! The complimentary tea and email instructions were helpful and clear. The boats are pretty full and everyone is clamoring for a good spot at the beginning. I’d recommend standing at the front of the boat for the best view. We sat down on the top level and people pushed by and blocked our view so we had to move around a bit. By the end there were plenty of spaces to see the scenery. If you sign up for the first cruise of the day and are staying in Te Anau, be mindful that you will likely need to wake up at 4:30/5 to arrive at the suggested time.
Nice that we were close to the waterfall, only unfortunate that we could not really hear what was said over the speaker and that there was not a lot of story telling in general

Less coach trips on the last boat!
When I saw some of the other boats I was so relieved we had booked with Mitre Peak. Smaller boat, more space to move around and less coach trips to contend with at check in! Booking the last cruise of the day was also a good move - the road was quiet when we were driving back to Te Anau and all the coaches had long since left! The trip itself was wonderful - I was perfectly placed to have the dolphins jumping up right next to me and we had blue sky - might have meant less waterfalls, but you can never complain about sunshine. It was magical.
