Review of the Milford Sound small-group tour from Queenstown, with scenic stops, a two-hour cruise, picnic lunch, and flight back.
“Really well organised and executed tour of a stunning area. Graeme was an excellent guide, very friendly and engaging with in depth knowledge of NZ and the local area”
Travel Queenstown to Milford Sound by coach, cruise the fiord, then fly over glaciers and mountains on this full-day adventure.
“Lovely day out, we were swapped last minute for a different bus/boat and therefore a cold lunch but that was OK. Would have liked a slower more thorough safety check on the plane”
Soar above Queenstown, Skippers Canyon, and the Wakatipu Basin on a 30-minute helicopter flight with a weather-dependent alpine landing.
“Perfect weather. Staff were friendly. Pilot was amazing! Narrating fun facts on places we hover. Was totally entertaining my kids. Flew through a cloud. Hovered over waterfalls. And made us play on the snow for as long as we can. Also took amazing photo with the helicopter whilst at the glacier. Super amazing experience!!!”
Fly from Queenstown over five glaciers, Mt. Aspiring, Milford Sound, and Mitre Peak on a compact, weather-dependent scenic flight.
“Just fantastic view of mountains and fiords between Queenstown and Tasman Sea. Company was courteous and helpful. Pick up and drop off from in town.”
Pick an island, a lake or a cave.
