Enjoy the relaxing scenic journey back on the coach to your accommodation.

非常不错

司机很健谈,帮助我们送回酒店。行程去的时候不会觉得累因为停了很多趟,回来的时候稍显疲惫。

很棒的一日遊

在眾多家峽灣一日遊的選擇中,我們參加RealNZ的行程,其實它的內容跟其他家都大同小異,差別最大應該就是沒有附午餐。但船上有販賣餐飲,我們點了魚和薯條,還蠻好吃的就是有點貴。 我們一大早從皇后鎮的集合中心一起搭遊覽車出發,車程真的很長單趟約4小時,幸好司機會定點讓大家休息去洗手間,或下車看風景拍照,才不致於太難受。 行前查資料都看峽灣這有2/3的機率是陰天或下雨,但這次我們很幸運天氣很好是個大晴天,藍天白雲搭配著峽灣景色非常美,尤其站在船頭更能飽覽山水交織的風光,欣賞陽光照耀瀑布而形成的彩虹,及發現躺在石頭上睡覺的海獅。 非常棒的一日遊!

郵輪之旅

原本選擇了在住宿處上車,但當天早上一直未等到車子,後來才被電話通知改為另一個附近的飯店上車,讓人度過緊張的早晨。 除此之外,司機導遊相當盡責的解說,整體而言還算愉快。

Andrea's Coach Milford sound

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely incredible experience! The Milford Coach and Cruise was hands down one of the highlights of our trip. From start to finish, everything was well organized, comfortable, and enjoyable. The journey itself was just as memorable as the destination, every turn offered stunning views of Fiordland’s mountains, lakes, and valleys. The landscape at Milford Sound is simply breathtaking. Towering cliffs, waterfalls, and the sheer scale of the scenery make it feel almost unreal. Pictures truly don’t do it justice, you have to see it for yourself. A huge shoutout to our tour guide, Andrea, who was fantastic! She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and shared so many interesting insights along the way. Her enthusiasm and commentary really added to the experience and made the whole day even more enjoyable. If you’re visiting New Zealand, this is an absolute must-do. I would highly recommend the coach and cruise experience to anyone looking to take in some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. If you want, I can tweak the tone (shorter, more casual, or more humorous 👍).
