A patchwork of imperial cliffs flanked with calm waters of a fiord, glorious waterfalls and vibrant rainforests- surrender to the artistry of nature on this cruise in Milford Sound.
This tour offers the option of a coach or flight to reach Milford Sound from Queenstown. While the coach journey traverses through some of the world's most impressive alpine scenery, the scenic flight soars above Fiordland's dramatic terrain and the extensive Southern Alps, and provides you with unparalleled views of glacier carved valleys and alpine lakes.
As you leisurely cruise along the waters of the glacier carved Milford Sound fiord, you will be confronted with the towering, iconic 1692 meter Mitre Peak. Catch a glimpse of lazing seals, wobbling penguins and playful dolphins, which frequent these waters.
As you explore what Rudyard Kipling described as the 'eighth wonder of the world', you will encounter unsullied beauty and utter contentment in New Zealand's stunning Southland.
