Wonderful trip to Milford Sound

Published on Feb, 2025

This is a must-do trip if you are in the area and have a day to spare. The trip and its organisation was slick and seamless: meet at the information office in Te Anau to collect your tickets (Grace can also set you up for other adventures and recommend places to eat) jump on the bus and let your driver (the friendly, informative and very professional Keith, in our case) take the strain of where to stop for the best photos, getting to Milford Sound in time for your cruise and parking your own vehicle (the car parks were mobbed even on a Wednesday in late February). We booked the picnic lunch, which is collected on board the boat, and it was well worth the money: sandwiches, fruit, crackers & cheese, biscuits and chocolate. The cruise boat, The Lady Bowen, is comfortable and modern and, the Captain’s commentary was live, not recorded, so specific to what we were experiencing on the day. Stand at the front or front/right of the boat on your way out for the best views. Milford Sound itself was glorious. Put down your cameras and take it all in!

Great day but no rain, which is a rarity

Fabulous day out and dont worry about going hungry with the buffet, great feast. We had a fine (dry) day which is rare. Great vessell

Must do in Milford sound cruise. Live we “NO REGRETS”.

Wonderful, stuff friendly. Bus driver is outstanding!! Kept us informed with history & our eco system. Two of my favorite topic.

Just do it!

Truly breathe taking! Tourist trap forsure and you will have a hard time getting pictures without anyone else in the photo but worth it! One of the best national parks I’ve ever seen and probably one of the best in the world! This is a must do!

Smooth sailing

Published on Feb, 2025

Come prepared for weather. Go, even if it's rainy. We saw dozens of waterfalls. In the rain yesterday, there were hundreds. Stan, our driver, was knowledgeable, a great driver, and considerate. He told us about sites just before we saw them, when the beauty distracted us all. At the terminal, all was efficient. Despite thousands of visitors and several boats, it was still an individual experience. I hope to return
