I would totally recommend miter peak cruises as my experience with them was out of this world. Safety is there number one priority so when I needed medical attention they went above and behold there call of duty. Thanks to all medical staff involved in flying me out and to the medic a big thank you to Steve the medic for making the right decision. ABIG AROHA to you all Regards Allison Clark
It was the most amazing day. The flight and scenery was incredible our pilot Elliott was amazing pointing out mountain areas and names, flying close just amazing. Our cruise was great, what a lovely country we live in. I would definitely put this on your 'to do' list.
This is a beautiful experience. Our pilot was lovely, talked to us all the way and the flight was very safe and scenic. The cruise was equally as good, with awesome people running it. They even stop and have a chat - just so friendly. The Milford Sound is unforgettable, so majestic and a beautiful part of New Zealand. Totally recommend it.
This was a fantastic cruise, what an overload of scenery and views. The boat's crew were great, very knowledgeable with a humorous twist occasionally. Going under the waterfalls was an interesting experience, a particularly wet one for the crew member who went under the fall to collect glasses of water for passengers to sample! Parking at the Sound was easy (campervan) & free, the whole cruise was organised so efficiently we couldn't fault it. The drive from Te Anue was easy and several viewing stops. A really well worthwhile trip to make especially with the Bookme discount. We also went on a Doubtful Sound trip and both my wife & I enjoyed Milford Sound more although both are great experiences in their own way.
So beautiful no matter the weather. My son thought drinking waterfall water was like the best thing ever. We saw heaps of different wildlife like Seals and penguins. Such good value for money! I would definitely do this again with the family!
It was a rainy day but that meant lots of waterfalls. The boat and crew were lovely. Great commentary with a sense of humour. Highly recommended
Absolutely outstanding views and a fantastic staff, they made it so much fun and gave great bits of info! Thank you so much for a great time! ♥️
We were lucky enough to have such a beautiful day. We saw dolphins, penguins and seals. It was gorgeous. Also got to go under a waterfall and drink from a waterfall. My partner says this is the most beautiful place he's ever seen.
We loved Damien and tom etc, the cruise was great, not much wild life, but that's the sounds for you. We did the 9.30am and only 15 on board. We travelled the same areas as real journeys that we went on the next day but with 500 Chinese at 11am. Real journeys goes a lot faster, so cruise went faster than the nature cruise. Would recommend it over the bigger boats. You don't get the coach loads of people on board.
everything was awesome!
Just the right conditions to see lots of waterfalls as it had rained for two days before the cruise. Mist lifted with the sunrise. Beautiful and breathtaking views.
Amazing landscape! Snow mountain, blue ocean, touchable waterfalls, cute penguins, lazy seals, wandering dolphin family, together friendly staff and clean tidy boat. In brief, unforgettable!
Unique place, photos don’t give justice of how beautiful it is, definitely a must do. The cruise is very comfortable, very friendly and helpful staff and nice fish and chips for lunch
Our group of 3 adults and 3 kids did this on a cool sunny winters day. The captain was very knowledgeable and told us all about the history of the places we visited. So many stunning photo ops. This was the highlight of our south island trip.
The scenery is simply amazing, the mountains, the ocean, the waterfalls, and the forest are all breathtaking. No matter what the weather is, rain, snow, or sunny it is always a wonderful trip when you visit Milford Sound. Mitre Peak cruises were a great company to go with. Small boats which meant less people, inside viewing and outside along with the friendly commentary and helpful service made this trip extra special.
Lovely crew, plenty of seating inside and standing area outside (some benches as well). The bacon sandwich is nicer than the photo in the brochure makes you think, although more a snack than a full breakfast but still tasty. Veggie option was tomato and cheese. We saw a lot of dolphins, the skipper turned around so that we could see better, before continuing with the cruise. Very good value for money in my opinion. The beautiful area helps of course, but we had a great morning and would recommend this trip
for $20 this was amazing
We had great weather--not a cloud in the sky--and our guide Tobias was wonderful. We kayaked around 15km over 4 hours and enjoyed the peaceful beauty of Milford Sound. All gear is provided, just make sure to take insect repellent and a bag lunch/snacks.
Had an amazing time. It’s the best way to see and explore Milford Sound. It’s fun, personable and a great work out. All gear supplied (wetsuit, thermals, etc). Our guide was fantastic as well. Definitely worth doing if you’re going to Milford Sound.
If you really want to experience Milford Sound, you should definitely do this tour. It is beautiful.
Our guide was Mandela who was very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. It was really, really blissful to paddle in the silence of the early morning, nearly all by ourselves (a small group of 8). We paddled right next to the edges. Many sandflies though ^^ All gear was provided (including clothing) and I was never cold. Dry bag was good for my DSLR. I didn't realize though that we would only stay in the inner fjord - don't expect to go to the Stirling falls! But we paddled a good 10km loop so more might have been tough physically. A great, great feeling and memory - thank you very much!
We went kayaking on the 18th of January. There hasn’t been rain for a while, so not many waterfalls, but we were able to paddle right up to one’ the weather was amazing, the small group meant that we got a good, personalised trip and were able to learn a lot about the beautiful Milford Fjord. Anyone visiting Milford Sound - this is a must. P.s. beware of sand flies.
Great introduction to sea kayaking. The Team were very thorough in our preparation for the tour. The guides were very informative and supportive to newcomers to the sport. Our experience was enhanced by absolutely perfect conditions.
We had a fantastic kayak and explore through the fjords. Super chilled and great guide who was very knowledgeable and friendly. Would highly recommended this tour in Milford.
This trip was excellent! Our guide, Dylan, was knowledgeable, confident, hilarious and took good care of the group. The whole experience was well-planned and extremely enjoyable. Weather was perfect, which was a pleasant surprise considering the volatile Milford Sound climate. Even saw a couple of playful fur seals right by our kayaks! What a day... We had a lot of fun and would definitely recommend it to friends :)
My girlfriend and I had an amazing time on the waters in the kayaks, cruising around the fjords, we saw seals grooming there selfs, amazing waterfalls and epic views of the mountains. We had the best guide 'Ben' very friendly fun and informative, highly recommended!
That was the best activity we did here in NZ! We did a cruise in July last year, but it was only 2h. In this overnight cruise, you can experience the sunset, see the stars at night and see the sunrise in the morning. The kayak was super fun also, and the food is just amazing. Everyone of the staff team was great and we had an amazing time, this is certainly a must do for everyone that comes to NZ.
This was a great cruise! So glad we picked this one. Absolutely loved the kayak and swim. Saw the Fiordland crested penguin. Food exceeded our expectations and staff were helpful and friendly. Awesome ship! Well cared for ship and perfect for the purpose. If you can, pick this cruise, great value for money and you won’t regret spending a bit longer than a couple of hours on board.
Super relax and beautiful!
The weather wasn't great the day started out overcast and we had a bit of rain, sleet and snow but not enough to dampen anyone's spirit. Our coach driver Pablo was fantastic, funny and informative through out the tour. My husband and I live in the north island and this was our first trip down south, I am of maori decent and want to say without a doubt this was one of the highlights of our holiday. We had planned to fly back to Queenstown from Milford but alas it was unsafe to do so and so after our amazing cruise out to the Tasman sea and back we returned by coach. A great day, spectacular views, friendly people and staff especially Pablo our premo safe driver...
I highly recommend this.
The cruise was totally amazing. I highly recommend this cruise!!
