Food & Drink in Milford Sound

Beautiful cruise on Lake Wakatipu. Super smooth. The food was outstanding. Dessert was delicious, and the scenery was breathtaking.

My daughter loved exploring the Earnslaw. I was worried it would feel too busy but I found it the right amount of people. My favourite part was the highland coos

the cruise was wonderful, got time to tim to take in the full beauty that nature has to offer, the boat was super interesting, been able to see something that was built so long ago and working was a privilege. The restaurant lunch was amazing n so was the building.

Great views of the sheer mountains, lake & the commentary about the history of the Earnslaw. Got some great views of Fernhill from the lake where my son has just bought his first home.

Beautiful way to explore Lake Wakatipu. Really enjoyed being able to look at the engine room, and watch the coal being shoveled into the furnaces. Beautiful layout with a well stocked bar.

Enjoyed the whole experience. Perfect weather. Friendly staff. Loved looking around the boat. Gorgeous lunch and time had at Walter Peak.. just loved the whole thing

TSS Earnslaw Cruises and Walter Peak delivered an experience that was both relaxing and unforgettable. Sharing it with my husband and our 2-year-old made it even more meaningful. The cruise itself felt like stepping back in time, with the charm of the historic steamship perfectly complemented by the breathtaking scenery of Lake Wakatipu. What impressed us most was how family-friendly the entire day was. Our toddler was entertained throughout, whether watching the lake, exploring the boat, or taking in the sights at Walter Peak. The farm visit was a highlight, offering a wonderful opportunity to connect with New Zealand’s rural heritage in a way that was enjoyable and accessible for all ages. Every detail felt thoughtfully planned, creating an experience that was seamless, authentic and memorable. We would happily recommend it to families looking for a unique day out.

Great experience, well organized. The food was lovely and the views amazing. Don't take a travel pram if you're doing the farm tour as it's rocky and has stairs.
