Overview
An unforgettable day in the unique scenery of Milford Sound, the ‘Eighth Wonder of the World’ including luxury travel and personalised guiding. Your morning departure from Queenstown begins with the lakeside drive to the south of Queenstown, which unfolds into the lush green of Southland’s alpine farming country before heading for the unforgettable drama of Fiordland’s scenery.
After refreshments on the shores of New Zealand’s second largest lake, Te Anau, the scenery en route to Milford Sound unveils astonishing beauty at every bend. Your experienced driver-guide knows all the very best photography stops, where sometimes short walks reveal hidden waterfalls, small placid lakes and snow-capped peaks clad in thick native bush.
Your Nature Cruise vessel awaits at the harbour in the fiord, to glide you on a 2.5 hour journey of discovery in scenery unchanged since Captain Cook’s arrival. It’s a place of towering mountains, rainforests, wildlife and glorious peace and calm.
The tour includes the return trip to Queenstown by road in your luxury vehicle or there is the option of a scenic flight direct (not included and payable locally) to Queenstown from Milford’s airstrip.
